Meng Yan's Transformation

"It's so beautiful, mom. Although I didn't understand the meaning of the lyrics, I felt that Lu You was not in a good mood when he wrote "The Golden Hairpin and Red and Soft Hands". It seemed that he was very sad." Zhan Mengyan said intoxicatedly.

"It's very good that you can feel the sadness expressed in the lyrics. When you go to junior high school, you will learn about Chinese history. In China's 5,000 years of cultural history, there was a dynasty called the Song Dynasty. In this dynasty, a literary genre called Song Ci was popular." Yunqing explained.

"Mom, can you tell us more about Song poetry so we can understand it a little more?" Zhan Mengyan said infatuatedly.

"Mom, I used to know Tang poetry, but I don't know much about Song poetry. I felt your recitation just now was very nice. I would also like to borrow the help of sister Mengyan and ask you to give us some basic knowledge about Song poetry." Guihua also echoed.

"Since you have a strong desire for knowledge, I will simply tell you about Song poetry," said Yunqing.

"The evolution and development of Song Ci has gone through a tortuous process. It has gone through several centuries and has different development trajectories in different eras. Ci first appeared in the Tang Dynasty. The origin of Ci was originally derived from Yanyue. As a kind of lyrics coordinated with Yanyue, it was abbreviated as "quzi ci" after the late Tang and Five Dynasties. For example, "Bodhisattva Man" by Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai, and "Remembering Jiangnan" by Bai Juyi and Liu Yuxi are among the earliest literati Ci works, which mark the embryonic stage of the formation of Ci. These Tang Dynasty poets inherited and carried forward the fine tradition of folk quzi ci, which is fresh, fluent, and sincere in their Ci. Not only did they increase the connotation and expressiveness of the Ci, but their gloomy and bold Ci style had a far-reaching influence on future generations. Therefore, these literati Ci works in the Tang Dynasty are called "the ancestors of Ci and Qu of all generations." Ci to the Song Dynasty At the beginning of the Song Dynasty, the subject matter and language style had basically been determined. Especially represented by Liu Yong (later generations called Liu Yong a poet of the graceful school), great changes were found in the content, structure and style of the lyrics. Liu Yong not only developed the system of long tunes, but also enriched the creation methods of lyrics. At the same time, he was also good at absorbing the nutrients of folk lyrics, picking folk tunes into lyrics, and creating a large number of slow lyrics, which effectively expanded the realm of lyrics and played a huge role in the later development of Song lyrics. In the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, with the development of the economy, the poets of the Northern Song Dynasty understood more about music. They not only made their own tunes, but were also good at writing lyrics. Therefore, the lyrics market flourished. During this period, Song lyrics, as a new literary sprout, began to develop rapidly. After the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, Su Shi was the first to raise the banner of reform and started a bold and unrestrained school. It not only broke the narrow soothing concept of Ci and expanded the content of Ci, but also enriched the expression methods of Ci and improved the artistic conception of Ci. Before this, Song Ci still lingered on writing about love between men and women and the sorrow of separation and hatred. The emergence of Su Shi's Ci began to strongly express personal desire for achievement and clear patriotic themes in Ci. His style of Ci began to show a romantic spirit and demeanor, and Su Shi dared to "put poetry into Ci", which not only broke through the overly strict constraints of Ci in terms of rhythm, but also transformed Ci from an accessory to music into an independent lyric poetry form. This greatly improved the literary status of Ci and fundamentally changed the development direction of Ci history. In the period of the Southern Migration, the main representatives of Ci were Li Qingzhao, Zhu Dunru, Zhang Yuangan, Chen Yuyi, etc. These Ci poets personally experienced the The social changes from north to south, their life experiences, thoughts and emotions have undergone tremendous changes, which has affected their poetry, and the style of poetry has also changed accordingly. The content of their poetry is closer to life, and the emotions are more depressed and angry. Most of their poetry shows the contrast between the prosperous scene of the nation in memory and the shameful status at present, the contrast between the enjoyable life in the past and the embarrassing situation at present, the passionate call of the whole society to regain the lost land and the weak and cowardly contrast of the court, etc. Therefore, this poetry expresses the suffering and distress of the nation and society during the war and the depression and depression of the loss of individual ideals. Especially Li Qingzhao's poetry, it has established the independent literary status of Song poetry. She is a school of her own, creating the Yi'an style, with a simple and fresh style, delicate and perfect techniques, and using both elegance and vulgarity, achieving unity in form and content. Therefore, Li Qingzhao is praised as the master of gracefulness, and has made an indelible contribution to the development of Song poetry. In the early Southern Song Dynasty, poetry began to show an unprecedented prosperity. During this period, the poetry world was full of masters and famous works. The main representative poets of this period include Xin Qiji, Lu You, Jiang Geng and others. They inherited and developed the bold and unrestrained style created by Su Shi, making the content of the poems more profound and the style more silent and vigorous, thus pushing the creation of Song poems to a peak. The most outstanding poet among them is Xin Qiji, who not only inherited Su Shi's revolutionary spirit, but also further expanded the connotation of the poems and put them to a higher stage. He also wrote poems in a prose style in an innovative way, and almost reached the realm of "no intention can be entered, no matter can be said". In particular, the poems he created are majestic and generous, with a broad artistic conception, showing the poet's unswerving patriotic thoughts. When the poems developed to the late Southern Song Dynasty, due to the reasons of the times and the change in the status of literati, the poems began to decline and were then replaced by Yuan opera and Yuan drama. From the birth of Song poems in the Tang, Five Dynasties and the early Northern Song Dynasty to the development in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, to the prosperous period in the early Southern Song Dynasty, and until the decline in the late Southern Song Dynasty, the evolution of Song poems can be described as tortuous and rich. As a unique literary form, Ci is deeply loved by people, but it also leaves many regrets. But it is undeniable that Song Ci occupies a very important position in the history of literature, and it represents the success of a generation of literature. "
