Lyricism through scenery is a lyric way in poetry, that is, lyric through scenery description. It is different from contrast: contrast is a way to express characters by describing the environment; Lyricism by borrowing things is a kind of lyrical way, which means that poets do not express their feelings directly when creating, but express their feelings through scenery.
For example, Wang Wei's Autumn Night in a Mountain is a landscape poem with scenery as its main theme. With the help of vision, hearing and quietness, the poem shows the fresh, quiet and natural scenery in the mountains in autumn night, thus showing the poet's love for mountain life and inner peace and tranquility. It is a typical poem that uses scenery to express one's feelings.
Generally speaking, poems expressing feelings by borrowing scenery mainly describe scenery, that is to say, scenery is the object that poets should focus on, and poets' thoughts and feelings are often hidden in the description of scenery; However, if poetry focuses on expressing a character, whether the character is the author himself or the object he created, then the scenery in the poem is often the environmental description carried out by the poet to set off the character.
2, knot feelings with scenery
It is a way of ending a poem with scenery, which means that in the process of discussion or lyricism, the poem suddenly turns to writing scenery and ends the whole poem with scenery instead of emotion. By using this technique, readers can gallop their imagination in the description of scenery, appreciate the artistic conception of poetry, make poetry have infinite charm, and produce artistic effects of "endless words and endless meanings" and "ruthlessness is better than emotion at this time"
For example, in Wang Changling's Join the Army, the first three sentences of the poem are lyrical, and the word "endless" is used when it comes to "frontier sorrow". So how can the ending sentence express "endless" sadness in a limited number of seven words? However, in the last sentence, the poet uses a gentle brushwork to solve his feelings with the scene. After the scene of buying wine and drinking music in the army, there suddenly appeared a vast and desolate scene of the bright moon shining on the Great Wall: the ancient and majestic Great Wall was undulating, the autumn moon was shining high, and the scene was magnificent and sad. How do you feel about this? Is it infinite homesickness? Is it an ambition to make meritorious deeds or a sorrow for reality? Give readers rich imagination.
Step 3: Get excited.
Rise, also known as "xing". Zhu said: "If you are interested, say something else first, and bring up the words you are chanting." . To put it simply, the function of "Xing" is to "lead" and lead out what you want to express with other things. Because it acts as an introduction, it often begins with a poem or a paragraph (if it is a long poem). The description of scenery in poetry also has the function of "xing"
For example, the first sentence of Su Shi's Dongpo Ci, "Rain washes Dongpo, and the moonlight is clear", describes a clean and lonely picture of Dongpo under the moon after the rain. It is this beautiful scenery that makes the poet who calls himself a "savage" go out again after "walking around the city". That is to say, the description of the scenery of "the rain washes the east slope and the moonlight is clear" leads to the description of the poet's behavior in the sentence "People walk like savages", so that the description of the scenery in the first sentence has a shocking effect.
4. Use scenery to describe the season, place or weather.
Poetry emphasizes implicit images, not only in expressing thoughts and feelings, but also in explaining seasons, places, weather conditions, etc., and often uses scenery descriptions to express them instead of directly saying them. For example, Liu Yong's "Rain Bell" begins with "It's cold and sad, the pavilion is late, but the shower begins", which not only describes the sad environment when seeing off, but also explains the season (an evening in autumn), place (pavilion) and weather (the shower begins). Another example is the second sentence in Du Fu's poem "Shuxiang", which is the answer to the first sentence "Where is the temple of fame?" Therefore, the location of Wuhou Temple was explained first, and the solemn environment of the ancestral temple was also described, showing the reverence and solemn attitude of the poet when he visited the ancestral temple. Another example is Li Bai's "Listening to the Shu Monk Playing the Piano", "Although the mountains are dark, I don't feel the change", which explains the time and weather for the first time. The poet explained the time and weather by "unconsciously", which showed his intoxicated state when listening to the piano, and set off the superb piano skills of Shu monks from the side. The function of this scene description is easy to understand, so I won't say much.
Step 5 transition
Before talking about the transitional role of scenery description in poetry, we must first understand that just as our feelings will change because of the change of environment, in poetry, the feelings of poets may also change because of the influence of the immediate scenery. In other words, the thoughts and feelings expressed by the poet in his poems may be simple, or they may turn from joy to sorrow and from sadness to joy. If the poet's emotion changes in a poem, the scene in front of him may be the reason for his emotional change. In this way, the description of scenery between emotional changes in poetry may have a transitional role.
