What are the poetic features of Tao Yuanming?

Tao Yuanming initiated the pastoral school of China literature, changed the poetic style of metaphysics since Wei and Jin Dynasties, and raised "nature" to a beautiful realm. Tao Yuanming's poems have superb artistic realm and are "the pinnacle of primitive natural art". The artistic feature of his poems is mainly "plain and natural", specifically

(a), emotion, scenery, things, reason;

(2), see the police in plain, see beautiful in simple;

(3) Accurate but unobtrusive language training.

Shi Tao likes to express unpretentious and sincere feelings with simple and natural narration and argumentation. When he has feelings in life, he resorts to pen and ink, which is neither melodramatic nor melodramatic. In the preface to drinking, it is written: "When you are drunk, ask a few questions to entertain yourself, and there is too much paper and ink." Just look around, not pursuing strong stimulation, no strong color, no tortuous structure, pure natural, very magical. But because of his lofty personality and profound life experience, as long as it is written truly, it is very infectious. As Huang Che, a poet in the Song Dynasty, said, "Those who are profound because of their profound knowledge have no intention to be disrespectful and skillful." [3] Tao Yuanming's ordinary life, with his subtle inner feelings, makes people feel that he is walking in the sun and living in the shade. "Old Forest", "Old Garden", "Nanshan" and "Dongli" are as calm as springs.

Of course, to understand Shi Tao's plain and natural artistic characteristics, we must start with his content and thoughts. The poet lives in an extremely dark society, but he insists on lofty ideals and interests. Some of his works show Geng Jie's persistence in his ambition. The poem "He Zhu Guo Bo" said: "Fang Ju opened Lin Yao and Song Qingyan watched the platoon; With this beauty, it is outstanding for the cream. " The eighth song of "Drinking" said: "Loose in the East Garden, the grass has no posture; First frost is different and can see the high branches. " The blooming chrysanthemums and the immortal pine trees under the frost are symbols of the poet's unyielding character. It is precisely because of this character that the poet shows a detached attitude towards the decadent ruling class on the one hand, and a strong dissatisfaction with the dirty reality on the other.

Tao Yuanming's interest and personality finally made him completely break away from the upper class of the political class and return to the countryside. He wrote many pastoral poems. Famous pastoral poems include Returning to the Garden, Teacher Guo's Book, Early Rice in the West, Missing, etc. His pastoral poems are full of hatred for dirty society and love for pure countryside. Such as "back to the garden" one:

Few people do as the Romans do. Their nature is to love nature. I sneaked into the official career network and have been away from the game for more than ten years. Birds in cages are often attached to the forests of the past, and fish in ponds yearn for the abyss of the past. I want to open up wasteland in Minamino and keep my humility to the fields. There are more than ten acres of square houses and eight or nine straw houses. Willow trees cover the eaves, and peach trees cover Li Lieman in front of the hospital. A warm and distant village, the smog in the Yi market. Several dogs barked in the alley, and the mulberry tree was barked by a rooster. The house is clean and miscellaneous, and the virtual room is idle. Trapped in a cage without freedom for a long time, I finally returned to the forest today.

The poet dismissed the upper class of the ruling class as a "dust net", regarded those who devoted themselves to it as "birds in a cage" and "fish in a pond", and said that retiring from the countryside broke out of the "cage" and returned to "nature", which showed his contempt for ugly society. The poet described the pure and beautiful rural scenery in detail, revealing the author's heartfelt love between the lines. Here, the simple and quiet rural life is in sharp contrast with the hypocrisy, fraud and mutual struggle of the upper class, which has a particularly attractive force. In addition, Tao Yuanming has some pastoral poems describing his rural poverty.

The main contents of Tao's poems are the simple pastoral scenery, the daily life in the countryside and the quiet state of mind in this life; However, it is naturally expressed through simple language and sketching techniques, which makes people feel as if it is "naturally flowing out of the chest" without any trace of axe chisel.
