Poetry is about innovation. The so-called innovation is not the pursuit of strangeness (strangeness) on the surface of words (uncommon; Unfamiliar) does not mean that the words used by predecessors cannot be used by future generations. The key to the innovation of poetry lies in whether it can produce new ideas. The ancient writers in China emphasized "self-establishment" and "new language skills", which are profound. In Ye Xie's "The Original Poetry" in the Qing Dynasty, there is such a passage:
Out of love, for scenery, for things, people have never said anything, so the speaker and the listener can be sincere and pleasant. Although there is a small difference between this meaning, this speech and this sentence, goodbye, the satirist has stopped clapping; After reading it several times, the benefits were not fresh. Chen chen followed it, and his teeth vomited, covering his nose and ears.
The so-called "people say it before they say it" means innovation; Is to have a clever idea, novel (new ears with awns; It also means fresh and chic. ) artistic conception. Different writers, writing the same theme, can write good works with their own characteristics because of their different ideas and artistic conception.
Here, I want to take the poems about spring breeze as an example to talk about how the ancients kept innovating.
Spring breeze is a theme that people have repeatedly sung for thousands of years. There are thousands of people who write about the spring breeze in ancient poems! Indeed, many people write about the spring breeze without new ideas. The wonderful use of each one is really worth learning.
First of all, we will naturally think of Bai Juyi's famous sentence, "The mountain fire never goes out, and the spring breeze blows high." The spring breeze here is a symbol of irresistible vitality and a messenger who brings new life to people; It gives the persecuted people encouragement and hope, and it gives the combatants confidence to win. Poetry is blurted out, easy to understand and vivid and profound. In Wang Anshi's works, the power of spring breeze to save the world is vividly demonstrated in another way, that is, the well-known barbecue, which everyone likes to eat. Metaphorically, a good poem is called beauty by everyone. ) In "Dengguazhou", the sentence "Spring breeze is green in Jiang Nanan, when will the bright moon shine on me?" . What's so good about this "green" word? I think the main point is that the word "green" is dynamic and colorful here, which brings life to the abstract spring breeze. Here, the spring breeze is a concrete image, symbolizing new life and strength; A "green" word connects the spring breeze with Jiang Nanan, forming a picture of spring returns and full of vitality (describing vitality); Both Bai Juyi's spring breeze and Wang Anshi's spring breeze symbolize new life and strength, but they have different realms and do not attack each other.
Spring breeze is a symbol of celebration, happiness and rebirth, but it is also often used to set off the pain of where you are going and the worries of travelers. Comparing sadness with cheerful scenes or extreme joy with tears is a common technique in China's classical poems. Because of the poet's different situation and mood, it is also a spring breeze, which gives people different feelings. It can give people joy and add sadness. Those who write about parting feelings, such as Li Bai's "Spring Breeze is not bitter, don't send willow green" and "Spring Breeze is ruthless and blows away my dreams", are all ways to directly connect spring breeze with parting feelings. Some poets write about the spring breeze as a typical environment to set off their mood, such as Liu Yuxi's "Wine flags are blown outside the city in the spring breeze, and pedestrians float to the west", and Du Mu's "Spring breeze is ten miles along Yangzhou Road, so it is better to roll a bead curtain" and so on.
As for poems expressing natural scenery with spring breeze, they are everywhere, which requires ingenuity (initially referring to the uniqueness of poetry, and later referring to the uniqueness and novelty of methods). ), special, otherwise it is most likely to become a cliche. Some write spring scenery with the spring breeze, with rich feelings and far-reaching interests. Others compare the spring breeze to a messenger who conveys feelings to people and spreads happiness, such as Li Bai's "Since no one can bear the burden of my song for you, I hope it will go to Yanran with the spring breeze" and "Whose Yu Di is silent and scattered in the spring breeze of falling trees". The spring breeze here is associated with the scene of singing and dancing; On the other hand, if the spring breeze does not reach the place, it means that this is a desolate landscape. Even if there is a flute, it is a sad sigh. Isn't it true that Wang Zhihuan's "spring breeze is insufficient, why blame the willows"
Speaking of this, it seems that the description of the spring breeze is not detailed enough. ), it is rare to innovate again. Actually, it is not. Artistic creation is such a peculiar spiritual activity. It has an infinitely vast world, and talented artists have their own infinite creativity. As long as it is from the heart, from the heart, original (unique ideas, described as creative in technology or artistic conception. ), then: "There is no doubt about mountains and rivers, and there is another village in the dark", and new artistic conception will continue to appear. Spring breeze comes every year, which is a new generation of poetry. In the Song Dynasty, Wang Yucheng's Spring in Spring opened up a new realm for the description of spring breeze:
Two peach trees and apricot trees skew the fence, dotted with the home of Shang Shan Yong Lian.
Why shouldn't the spring breeze tolerate this, scaring away warblers and breaking a few flowers?
The artistic conception of this poem is extremely novel. Originally, the spring breeze blew buds and flowers, but the spring breeze here became the opposite of the "no room" blooming of apricots and peaches, and even blew off several flowers. Isn't it the negative image of ruining flowers? In fact, it is in this way that the poet shows a strong sense of spring, which makes readers feel that not only peaches and apricots are competing for spring, but also spring breeze and warbler. As for why the spring breeze is "unbearable", let readers experience it for themselves! When a poet is happy, there is no need to be too rigid in execution.
Finally, he remembered "Liu Yong":
Jasper dressed as a tree, hanging down ten thousand green silk tapestries.
I wonder who cut the thin leaves. The spring breeze in February is like scissors.
It's wonderful! Spring breeze is actually compared to scissors, while slender willow leaves are actually imagined to be cut with scissors. Unique creativity and wonderful imagination have brought people to a wonderful artistic realm. Who is the operator of scissors? Who will decorate these ten thousand weeping willows with jasper? Is it the creator? Is it a god? Or the author of the poem? All this is left to the reader to imagine!
Literature and art are original undertakings, and only by continuous innovation can we gain immortal life. If you stick to the old ways, you don't want to update them. ), copy copy (copy as is, do not change. Misappropriation without flexibility. ), there is no way out. The objective world is endless, and so is people's understanding. Therefore, artistic innovation is endless. Any successful writer and artist always has his own unique style, creating and making progress in some aspects. The word "spring breeze" can still be constantly renovated in ancient poetry. Why can't our literature and art today boldly blaze a new trail and create new art worthy of our great era?
