The story of the book of songs
The Arrangement of The Book of Songs Confucius once said: "There are 300 poems. In a word, they are innocent." It is said that Confucius participated in the compilation of The Book of Songs. Due to the age, the author of The Book of Songs has been unable to make textual research, but what is certain is that this book has been adapted by many people.
It is generally believed that the Book of Songs was first preserved in Taishi, a music official of the Zhou royal family. Their works have been processed, eliminated and revised. Therefore, the existing language forms of The Book of Songs are basically four fonts, and the phonological system and rhyme rules are basically the same. In ancient times, the transportation was inconvenient, the languages were different, and the songs of different times and regions could not be consistent unless they were processed and sorted out. It can be regarded as official music songs, and collecting and sorting out folk music songs is one of the cultural undertakings of the Zhou Dynasty.
The Book of Songs is different from previous folk poems. It rarely fantasizes and fictions, but adopts a realistic method to directly reflect the truest side of people's lives, which is natural and simple. As an art form, it can be so real that our life can't do it. Although each of us has a self-protection mentality, feels that the society is too complicated, is afraid of being hurt, and is unwilling to show our truest side to others, this does not prevent us from rejecting falsehood. When we try to open our hearts and take off the mask of keeping people away, we will find that life itself does not have too much burden, and we have been torturing ourselves and making ourselves exhausted.
