What is the way to appreciate classical poetry?

1, external perception: pay attention to the title, eyes and comments of poetry. In poetry reading, the first thing that touches us is the title of a poem, which often reflects the content, emotion, theme, interest and skills of a poem. For example, in "Send Yuan 20 An Xi", you can see that it is a farewell poem with a farewell word, expressing the author's feelings of parting; For another example, Li Bai's Visit to Vietnam is an ancient poem, so we should pay attention to the answering skills when appreciating it. Poetic eyes can be found in the title of a poem, such as Du Fu's Delighting in Rain on a Spring Night. A happy sentence directly expresses the author's joy on a spring rain night. The poem annotation is given by the author after a poem. Supplementary notes, or the background of the poet's writing this poem, or the author's life experience and thoughts, or the relevant allusions and difficult notes in this poem, are very important for reading the whole poem and answering questions later. Pay special attention when you appreciate it, and don't take it lightly.

2. Understanding of images: There are countless images in the world. When poets create, they choose one instead of the other or one instead of the other according to their inner feelings and the need to express their interests. Under the guidance of different emotions or interests, even the same image will choose different angles and form different images. For example, Yu Shinan, who is also chanting cicadas, wrote: Drink clear dew at dusk and sing far away; And King Robin said: His flight was heavy through the fog, and his pure voice was drowned in the windy world. Both poets chose two objective images, dew and sound, but their feelings were quite different because of the different circumstances at that time. Yu Shinan is in a high position and promises himself with lofty elegance and conceited talent; King Robin was falsely accused of being in prison, and there is no reason to be wronged. Therefore, the images in the poem are completely different: first, they are clear and far away; First, the dew weight is heavy. In addition, some images have traditional cultural symbolic meanings, and their meanings are relatively fixed. For example, plum blossoms symbolize unyielding and noble, red rocks symbolize acacia and messengers, chrysanthemums symbolize lofty and strong, and so on. If we understand the symbolic meaning of these images in traditional culture, it will help us understand poetry.

3, skill appreciation: directly express the chest and borrow scenery to express emotion. Direct expression refers to words that directly express emotions, joys and sorrows, ideals and ambitions in poetry. Oh, how can I solemnly bow and scrape to people such as high officials and rich people, making me unhappy with the vastness of heaven and earth. I am sad and lonely when I cry alone. I say that autumn is better than spring, which is a direct expression of the poet's feelings. Lyricism by borrowing scenery is very common in ancient poems, because China poets have the same purpose in writing poems-poetry is implicit. For example, the flowers in "Tie Yuan Yi" can be folded straight. Don't wait until there are no flowers and the branches are empty. Another example is asking how much sadness you can have, just like a river flowing eastward expresses its feelings through scenery.

4. Symbols and expressions: A western philosopher said that without symbols, there would be no poetry. The so-called symbol has two meanings: the clear meaning refers to the scene in front of the poet, and the dark meaning refers to a person who is essentially similar to the scene. Some traditional images in poetry are often endowed with certain symbolic meanings, such as running water refers to sadness; The moon expresses homesickness and homesickness; Rain hitting banana refers to sadness and resentment. The main difference between ideograph and symbol is that ideograph expresses one's subjective ambition, interest or moral integrity through something concrete, and the key point of understanding is to grasp one's own will, such as Yongmei's plum blossom. Plum, orchid, bamboo, chrysanthemum and pine are commonly used in ancient poetry, and the author also uses them to express his noble character under difficult circumstances.

5. Language pondering: Poets' writing styles are very different, so we should pay more attention to memory. The common language styles in ancient poetry are: fresh and lively, natural and simple, bold and elegant, euphemistic and implicit, generous and tragic, beautiful rhetoric, full of rhythm and so on. Different poets have different styles. Even the same poet has different styles in his specific works at different times and in different moods. But as far as a poem is concerned, as long as it is harmonious, its style is generally unified. That is, uninhibited and uninhibited, but not subtle and touching; Gorgeous and elegant, simple and natural can't be simpler.
