The poem "Song of Eternal Sorrow" was named "Song of Eternal Sorrow" precisely because Tang Xuanzong attached importance to color and countryside. However, Tang Xuanzong, a historical figure, was not only the maker of Anshi Rebellion, but also the so-called "fifty years of Taiping Emperor". The Anshi Rebellion caused irreparable suffering to the people and made people feel resentful. However, the tragic ending of love caused by high infatuation and singleness is also a sad thing, and the inevitability of tragedy is inevitable. After all, it's hard to choose. Since ancient times, heroes have always had some elusive feelings for beautiful women, let alone a reality. The singleness of love was also a part of the ethical category advocated by the society at that time, so the author's thoughts when writing this poem were twofold, including criticism and allegory of reality and sympathy for the love tragedy in Tang Dynasty.
The first half of "Song of Eternal Sorrow" was written by the author in a realistic way, which made explicit satire on the extravagance of the Tang Dynasty. At the beginning of the poem, the author uses the sentence "The emperor of China longs for the beauty that may shake an empire", which opens the emotional tone of the whole poem and paves the way for the writing of narrative poems later. From Yang Yuhuan, it was chosen as "the king's side", followed by "but the night in spring is very short, and the sun rises too fast. Since then, the emperor has given up his early hearing". Later, the Anshi Rebellion laid the groundwork, and the inevitability of Anshi Rebellion can be seen from the side. Here, the author gave great criticism to Tang's fatuity, but the author noticed the importance of public anger. Realism uses folk songs and ballads that reflect social dynamics. "Sisters and brothers are torn apart because she illuminates and glorifies her family so much. She brought happiness to every father and mother in the whole empire, because she gave birth to a girl instead of a boy. " To attack, its allegorical effect is more obvious.
When writing this poem, the author sympathizes with Tang's love tragedy and praises his single-mindedness in love from the perspective of love. The first part mentions that his love tragedy is due to his heavy love for the country, but the karma reflected in Tang is exactly what the people want. After all, whoever sows the seeds will bear the consequences. Reality has given him due retribution, but it is precisely this retribution that highlights the true value and significance of love. If the theme was not such a dramatic exception, would there be the author's Song of Everlasting Sorrow, which was widely circulated at that time? It won't have the reputation of "Song of Eternal Sorrow", so it can be said that the second half is the text of "Song of Eternal Sorrow". The author wrote about the pain of "the emperor couldn't save Yang Guifei when he gave her a gift to die, but he could only cover his face. Later, when he turned to look at it, it was a place of blood and tears", and wrote about the human side that readers could understand, from "But the water in Shu is always green and the mountains are always blue, so the constant is that your majesty's love is deeper than the sky" to "weak life and death, but no beloved soul visits him" The author uses romantic writing techniques and makes a profound and detailed description. It is the use of this technique and the particularly profound and meticulous description that suddenly aroused deep sympathy for the characters in the tragedy in the hearts of the author and even the readers, which is also indisputable.
In the fantasy part of the Taoist priest's prayer for God, without such rich imagination and fiction, it is impossible to have such a vivid description of "pools, gardens, palaces, everything is the same as before". In the description of the strange situation of Haixian Mountain, fictional characters are lifelike, which makes them feel the same as real life scenes. However, it is this scene that makes people feel true and gratified that the arrival is fictitious, and the last sigh is "forbearance in the earth and forbearance in the sky;" One day, both will end, and this endless sadness will last forever. It is this exclamation that implies the irretrievable lifelong regret caused by Emperor Tang Ming's heavy regard for the country, and it is also this exclamation that implies irony. With the same irony as the beginning of the whole poem, here is the last point of the whole poem. At the beginning or the first half, we are only discussing the cause and effect of the "everlasting regret song", that is, the irony of social unrest and love ending caused by the fatuity of Emperor Tang Ming. Later, in the text of Song of Eternal Sorrow, that is, the second half of the poem, the sympathy and single-minded praise for love reflected in the ending became a major part of the theme. The author's ambivalence is not only related to the particularity of the subject matter, but also to the author's understanding of the world outlook on life.
