In study, work and life, everyone is familiar with those catchy poems, which have the characteristics of highly concise language and short and pithy length. So what kind of poetry is more appealing? The following is a brief analysis of the four outstanding poets in the early Tang Dynasty and their artistic characteristics, which I compiled for you, for reference only, hoping to help you.
"Shangguan style" was popular in the early Tang Dynasty. Four outstanding poets in the early Tang Dynasty stepped forward and created a large number of poems that were completely different from the palace style, fresh and bold, or impassioned, in order to show their broad horizons and hearts and express their lofty aspirations. At the same time, their works also had a great influence on the development and stereotypes of later five-character poems and seven-character ancient poems, and they were important figures in the transition period of the old and new literature in the early Tang Dynasty.
Key words: the artistic characteristics of the four outstanding figures in the early Tang Dynasty, and the influence of the five-character ancient poems and seven-character poems.
Introduction:
In the first 50 years of the early Tang Dynasty, the literature of the Southern and Northern Dynasties moved from opposition to integration. In the early Tang Dynasty, the poetic world inherited the poetic style of Qi Liang and gradually moved towards the court. Shangguanti became a typical paradigm representing the highest level of court poets' creation at that time.
The second half of the early Tang Dynasty is a period of gradually breaking through the old poetic style and establishing the style of Tang poetry. During this period, the literary world was quite lively. First, in the post-Gao Zongwu period, four outstanding poets who were "famous for their writings" in the early Tang Dynasty boarded the poetry circle, and moved the theme of poetry from the palace to the street, from the Taige to the Jiangshan desert, and their emotional tone became fresh and healthy. Subsequently, Shen Quan and Song initiated a new form of metrical poetry. Finally, Chen Ziang ascended the mountain, denounced Qi Liang and advocated integrity, which opened up a healthy development path for Tang poetry. Here, I mainly make a brief analysis of four outstanding poets in the early Tang Dynasty and the artistic characteristics of their poems. Text:
The first is the four outstanding figures in the early Tang Dynasty. They are Yang Jiong, Lu and Irene Wang. Similar life experiences, outstanding creative talents and similar poetic creation skills make the names of their four poets closely linked, and they are called "four outstanding poets" or "four gifted scholars" and "four outstanding poets in the early Tang Dynasty" in literary history. "Biography of Yang Jiong in Old Tang Dynasty" said: "Yang Jiong is as famous as Lu and Lu in literature and poetry, and is also known as Luo, the king of the sea, also known as the four outstanding men." Four outstanding officials are small and talented, humble and famous. They have the conscious consciousness of changing the style of writing, oppose exquisiteness and extravagance, advocate strong character, and make new explorations and contributions in the theme, style and form of poetry. The themes of "From Palace to Market" and "From Taige to Jiangshan Desert" all entered the poem, including parting, homesickness, frontier fortress, market life and mountains and rivers, which represented the direction of literary innovation at that time. Style is different from palace poetry, but the expression of true feelings, or cheerful and bold, positive and enterprising, or sad and bold, preaching inspirational; From the formal point of view, Wang and Yang Chang have five laws, while Lu and Luo are good at seven-character swan songs, thus transforming the palace poetry. Their poetry creation represents the achievement of correcting the style of court poetry. Du Fu said, "At that time, Wang Yang and Luo Lu were thin and light, and had no rest. Second, the name of Cao is destroyed, and the rivers and mountains are not abolished. " ("The Play is Six Jueju Sentences"), and spoke highly of its historical position.
I. Wang Bo (649-676)
Wang Bo, Zian. Write more lyrical works, gorgeous rhetoric, fresh and bold style. He is especially good at five-character poems and quatrains, and has made great contributions to the maturity of five-character poems. His most famous song is "Send Du Shaofu to Shu Biography":
Across the wall of Sanqin, across a layer of fog, across a river. We said goodbye sadly, and our two officials went in opposite directions.
After all, the world is just a small place. Why are you wandering at the fork in the road? The child is holding a towel.
From ancient times to the present, most farewell works can't escape a sad and sad emotional atmosphere, but convey a sad mood. Although this poem by Wang Bo is a farewell work, the feeling of sadness is not obvious, and it is more a positive emotion-"However, China keeps our friendship, and heaven is still our neighbor". This opens up a brand-new world for us to say goodbye from another aspect: there is no disappointment, no sadness, but sincere friendship and encouragement, full of the heroism of a good man who is ambitious in all directions. At the same time, we can also see Wang Bo's heroic and generous side. Later, Gao Shi also wrote, "A husband never leaves his children, and tears stick to his skirt" ("Don't join the army"), "Mochow has no confidant before him, and everyone knows you" ("Don't be a gentleman"). All these are in the same strain as Wang Bo's works.
Second, Yang Jiong (650-695? )
Arrogant Yang Jiong is cruel to politics. His poems are good at five laws, writing frontier fortress, fighting for life, expressing lofty aspirations, high momentum and bold style. For example, his famous "Join the Army" is about the Great Wall:
There is a raging fire in Kyoto, and gasoline is surging in Chang 'an. Leaving the palace, the general will assume the command; Surrounding the enemy and attacking the city, the elite cavalry are extremely brave.
The heavy snow darkened the color; The wind roared and the drums rang. I'd rather be a junior officer to fight for my country than a white-faced scholar who only engraved his chapter.
This is a poem describing the life of fighting beyond the Great Wall, describing the lofty sentiments of the world yearning to make contributions to the frontier. The two couplets in the middle of the poem are particularly wonderful: the antithesis is very neat, and a frontier fortress picture is vividly depicted with typical things of frontier fortress. In addition, in the last couplet, the poet compares "a centurion" with "a scholar", which clearly shows his ambition and generosity for the frontier fortress. From this, we can also see the positive spirit of the young people in the early Tang Dynasty.
Third, Lu (632? ——695? )
Lu, the word "wandering". His poems are good at seven-character quatrains, rich in words and fluent in rhyme. For example, his seven words Chang Song ancient meaning:
Lonely and lonely, Yangziju, a book a year. The unique Nanshan osmanthus hair flies around attacking people.
This poem is entitled "Ancient Meaning", which means effective ancient meaning. The first part of the poem describes the prosperity of Chang 'an in detail from various angles, such as the famous sentence "I once learned to dance in Ziyan." If you succeed, why do you want to resign? I would rather be a mandarin duck than a fairy. A series of things in pairs, such as Bimu, Yuanyang and Shuang Yan, are compared with lonely love in the following. Decisive and repeated statements, such as "Why die", "Don't envy immortals", "Really admire immortals", "Easy to take" and "Hate", have vividly written the enthusiasm and pain of love. These poems reflect Chang 'an people's longing for love by describing the dancers' hearts. In addition, things such as "golden whip", "jade chariot" and "painting pavilion" are used in the poem, which fully shows the bustling scene and also reveals the arrogance and extravagance of princes and nobles. In the last part of the poem, that is, the poem selected above, the author turns his pen, makes a horizontal comparison on the basis of the longitudinal comparison between ancient and modern times, compares himself with the protagonist who is worried about writing a book, and compares himself with the extravagant figures in Chang 'an, expressing the poet's completely different life interest, which includes the criticism of extravagant and vulgar life, as well as the sadness, loneliness and self-forgiveness of the unfortunate.
The whole poem is magnificent, flowery in rhetoric, fluent in language and appropriate in details. By describing the ancient capital Chang 'an, it hurts its own stagnation because of the change of the world.
Fourth, Luo (627? ——684? )
Luo,, word sightseeing. Being good at seven-character songs has a great influence on the development of seven-character ancient poems in Tang Dynasty. There are also excellent works in the Five Laws. Wu's biography of Luo Cheng called it "outstanding in five words, meticulous in conception, with initial package and a good couple." Seven words, Wang Yang arbitrary. For example, his five-character poem "Political Prisoners Listen to Cicada":
