First, the introduction of metrical poems:
Metric poetry, also known as modern poetry, is a kind of ancient poetry in China. Metric poetry is a poetic style formed after the Tang Dynasty, which is mainly divided into quatrains and metrical poems. According to the number of words in each sentence, it can be divided into five words and seven words. Style and sentence patterns have certain norms, phonology has certain laws, and the changes in use also need to abide by certain laws.
Second, the representative poet:
The presentation and practice of metrical poems have a far-reaching influence on the history of China's poetry, among which Du Fu, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, is the most famous.
Du Fu is one of the great realistic poets in the Tang Dynasty. Based on the social reality, he profoundly reflected the historical process of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline, and was honored as "the history of poetry" by later generations.
Du Fu's poems have made great achievements in art, especially metrical poems. He not only inherited the metrical skills of his predecessors' poems, but also formed a unique metrical style according to his own creative practice.
The structural features of metrical poems and the introduction of even tone;
First, the structural characteristics:
1, four sentences are quatrains, eight sentences are metrical poems, and those longer than eight sentences are called long laws, also called excluded laws.
The number of words in each sentence is equal. (five or seven words)
3, a rhyme in the end, must be flat rhyme. (A) rhyme, modern poetry can not rhyme. B, even sentences must rhyme, the first sentence can rhyme or not, and odd sentences don't rhyme. C. The rhyme of the first sentence is the positive case, and the non-rhyme is the variant case. The five laws take the first sentence as the positive case without rhyme, and the rhyme as the change. )
4. Pairing in the middle (first couplet, couplet, neck couplet and tail couplet) means that couplets and neck couplets must be paired. Under normal circumstances, the neckline needs a pair of workers, and the couplet can be a wide pair. Of course, ancient poets also had a pair of wide necklines.
For example, Du Fu's Climbing the Building, Li Shangyin's February 2nd, Su Shi's Cold Bixuan in Shouxing Courtyard, Huang Tingjian's The Stars Falling in the Temple, and Du Mu's Two Poems of Runzhou, etc. The first couplet and the last couplet may or may not be couplets, but they should not both be couplets. Another variant is the antithesis of the first couplet and the antithesis of the couplet, which is called stealing the spring lattice.
5, in line with the leveling (that is, it must be leveled according to the rhythm).
6, also known as modern poetry.
Second, the introduction of Pingchuan:
A flat tone is a tone. In ancient times, the four tones were flat tones, while in modern times, the four tones are flat tones, rising tones, rising tones and falling tones. In ancient times, ping was a flat voice, but it was just going up. Modern Ping means peace, while Xu means rising and falling.
The ancient Rusheng no longer exists in modern Chinese, but is scattered in modern four tones. However, Rusheng still exists in some local dialects, so Rusheng characters must be considered when writing metrical poems with ancient rhymes.
