Shuoshu is a folk song of Wei State. According to Preface to Mao Poems, "Shuoshu is a kind of folk song." Chinese people stab its monarch and collect, eating into the people. If they don't fix their politics, they are greedy and afraid of people. "Zhu Xi's Biography of Poetry:" People are trapped in a policy of greed and disability, so it is said that big rats harm themselves. Cutting sandalwood accuses the exploiters by their first names, while Shuoshu uses metaphors to stab their politics. But Shuoshu is more combative than Cutting sandalwood. Cutting sandalwood only has anger, but Shuoshu not only has anger, but also aims at resistance and refers to action. The slaves are unbearable to be exploited and resisted by slave owners. It used to be one of the important reasons for the disintegration of slavery. What is more valuable is that Shuoshu put forward the beautiful ideal of establishing a "paradise" and a "happy country", trying to find a society without exploitation and oppression and equality between people. Although it didn't exist at that time and it was impossible to achieve it, it was a big step forward compared with the simple accusation in Cutting Tan, indicating that slaves had gradually awakened their classes in the long-term resistance struggle. The beginning of a clear goal of struggle and a reasonable vision of the future society can be regarded as the germination of the early utopian thought.
The three chapters all begin with "Shuo Shuo Shuo", which means big and fat, and call the slave owners and exploiting classes greedy and disgusting rats, which not only vividly depicts the ugly face of the exploiters, but also reminds people of the reason why "rats" are "fat" Thus arousing hatred against the exploiters. From "I have no food" to "I have wheat" to "I have seedlings", it reflects the just demand of slaves to defend the fruits of labor, and at the same time it shows that slave owners are insatiable, and slaves are deeply exploited, and all the fruits of labor are swallowed up by slave owners. From "I care about you at the age of three" to "Kende" The slave owners, however, showed no sympathy and pity, were cruel and heartless, and pushed their luck, and the degree of exploitation became stronger and stronger. "Consistency" means serving. You mean the slave owners. "Three years old" means a long time, but it doesn't mean exactly. "Don't worry about me" refuses to feel sorry for us at all. Get rid of the oppression and exploitation of the slave owners. "Death" means determination. "Fitness" means arrival. "I got my place" means "we got our place to live in". "Straight" means the same as "place". At the end of the poem, it is said that in this happy land, "who will never be named"? Everyone is equal, everyone is happy, and there is no need to live with a sigh. It is a bit like the blueprint envisaged in the Peach Blossom Garden in later generations.
Structural characteristics
The greatest feature of this poem is that it not only writes about the sufferings of slaves, but also writes about their resistance; Not only did he write the slaves' resistance, but also their pursuits and ideals. Therefore, it has higher ideological significance and greater inspiring power than a purely revealing work.
The whole poem is divided into three chapters, and the overlapping structure is used to sing and sigh repeatedly.
Metonymy is its main expression: the scolded object is hidden in the text, and it is directly replaced by Shuo.
