Preface
Outside the long pavilion, beside the ancient road, there are green grass and sky. This is the beginning of the poem "Farewell" written by Master Hongyi Li Shutong in 1915.
Changting Ancient Road has been a model of farewell since ancient times. The "Farewell" by Master Hongyi is even more beautiful and beautiful, with a profound artistic conception and full of charm.
"The chilling cicadas are mournful, late to the pavilion, and the showers are beginning to rest." Liu Yong's "Yulin Ling". "The long pavilion is shorter, where is the return journey." Li Bai's "Bodhisattva Man". The last thing you can't say in the ancient poems is the word "Chang Ting". "Chang Ting" seems to refer to parting and separation. As an image containing the feeling of resignation, it often appears in ancient farewell poems.
01 The ancients value affection. Say goodbye to
In ancient times, transportation was scarce, roads were rugged and difficult, and there were wars and bandits from time to time. If you stay at every turn for a few years, you will have trouble again. The ancients took parting very seriously, life and death, and they were afraid that a moment of separation might be a permanent farewell. We don’t know what year, month and day we have to wait until we meet again. Sometimes the separation may be a farewell.
During the period of Tang Suzong's Shijian Nan Jiedu envoy, he visited Du Fu many times in thatched cottage and took care of Du Fu's life. They gave each other poems, respected each other, and formed deep affection. After
, Yan Wu was called to return to the court. Du Zimei traveled all the way from Chengdu to Mianzhou, and from Mianzhou to Fengji Station 30 miles away. The poet sent it one way after another, one post after another. With Yan Gongyou's inexhaustible thoughts, he finally wrote "Fengji Post Resends Yan Gong's Four Rhymes" with a pen to express the reluctant parting feeling in his heart.
In the winter of 1188 AD, Xin Qiji and Chen Liang traveled to Ehu Lake. The two of them drew spring water, discussed state affairs, and talked about ambitions. They talked for more than ten days. There were endless words and endless content every day. This is the second famous The next goose lake meeting. The two are heroic and free-spirited, and both have strong patriotic feelings, so they have become close friends.
After Chen Liang left, Xin Qiji felt that there was still a lot to talk about, so he rode his horse to chase Chen Liang. However, the heavy snowfall failed to catch up, so he drank a night of wine in a small village wine shop and wrote the hearty and vividly handed down "Broken Time".
Li Bai’s "Send Meng Haoran to the Guangling Mausoleum": "The old man departs from the Yellow Crane Tower to the west, and fireworks will go down to Yangzhou in March." "Gift to Wanglun": "Li Bai is about to go on a boat, and suddenly hears the sound of singing on the shore. The peach blossom pool is a thousand feet deep, It's not as good as Wang Lun's sent me love." Wang Wei's "Send Yuan Two Envoy to Anxi", persuaded the emperor to have a glass of wine, and there is no reason to come out of Yangguan.
The inconvenience of transportation caused parting to become a very important moment in the life and work of the ancients. When parting, there would be banquets, goodbyes, and poems for each other, so as to shed many farewell poems that have been passed down for our descendants.
In these beautiful verses, ancient roads, fragrant grasses, willows, flute sounds, long pavilions, mountains, wine, Nanpu, Baqiao, and sunset have become important images of ancient people's love for things and scenery, and there are many waterway separations. The term "Nanpu" often has the word "chang pavilion" in land separation.
"Send of the Eighteen Miles" is a beautiful scene in one of the four great Chinese legends "Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai". The Yuan Dynasty poet Wang Shifu wrote "The Story of the West Chamber: Farewell to the Changting Pavilion", using the form of Yuan Zaju to describe the parting scene of the girl Cui Yingying sending Zhang Sheng to Beijing for the exam.
The transportation is backward, and it is often different, and it is difficult to see each other for many years or even life. Therefore, the ancients paid special attention to parting. When they said goodbye, they placed their love and sentiment on the scenery. The length of five miles and ten miles of pavilions has become an eternal theme in the creation and chanting of literati.
02 Farewell poems by the ancients Particularly favored by the "Pavilion"
Pavilion is one of the important landscapes in Chinese architecture. Architects can often subtly integrate them into the beautiful natural environment. In the gardens in the south of the Yangtze River, the corners of the eaves are flying up, peeking out from the lush trees, it looks very delicate, revealing a half-concealed and implicit beauty. The
pavilion was fully excavated by literati and inscribers due to its beauty in its shape, and became an important image in traditional Chinese literature. Since then, it has become associated with literati, feasting, enjoyment, and home.Embrace, the pain of parting, thinking about things, feeling about visiting, etc.
Ouyang Xiu in "The Tale of the Drunkard Pavilion", the peaks turn around, there is a pavilion facing the spring, and the Drunkard Pavilion. Using Yiran to describe the external features of the pavilion, it presents a sense of beauty with a variety of cuifei, with an elegant and dynamic beauty.
In the long-term literary writing, the "Ting" gradually evolved into an image with cultural heritage and symbolic significance, showing rich aesthetic connotations in Tang poetry and Song poetry, adding the touching artistic charm of poetry and poetry.
pavilions frequently appear in Tang poems and Song ci, except for the Lan Pavilion, Tao Ran Pavilion, Zui Weng Pavilion, Ai Wei Pavilion and other pavilions with specific names, long pavilions, short pavilions, post pavilions, wind pavilions, plum pavilions, Xi pavilions, bamboo pavilions, etc. Lin pavilion, pond pavilion, Jiang pavilion, etc. have become favorite images in poems.
Among the ancient Chinese pavilions, towers and pavilions, the pavilions are the most common people and the most affinity. Ten miles of long pavilion, nobles of kings and suns, or commoners of the mountains and wilds can say goodbye here. The ancient mountain pavilion, woodcutters and visitors can enjoy the clouds and moon and the scenery here. The
pavilion can not only hide in the royal garden, but also stand quietly in the Shiziyuan, and it can be scattered in rural villages. It is precisely because the pavilion is the most affinity imagery, which can be combined and matched with other images.
The most attractive part of Chinese characters lies in the careful selection and ingenious combination of imagery and imagery. The chemical reaction is formed by physical reaction to form a very beautiful artistic conception, such as the combination of the four images of long river, sunset, desert, and solitary smoke. , What a beautiful picture. The combination of
pavilion and willow, Chao Duanli wrote: "The short pavilion will connect the long pavilion, and the willows will fold and give to the monarch." The combination of
pavilion and rain, Yan Shu’s "The Pride of the Fisherman", people want to go to the short pavilion. Can't keep it. Xiao Xiaoyu rained even more at dusk.
Liu Yong combined several images freely and flexibly, and with the handed down "Yulin Bell", it became a masterpiece expressing parting emotions. The images of long pavilions, cicadas, rain, boats, tears, smoke waves, and dusk clouds are exquisitely integrated, expressing the sincere feelings of the poet and his lover farewell, tragic and moving, and extremely artistically appealing.
Yan Shu's "Picking Mulberries", time only tells people to grow old, unbelief and passion. Ever hate Liting. Teardrop Chunshan wine is easy to wake up. The phoenix tree was windy in the west last night, and the light moon was clear. Good dreams are often shocked, where is the tall geese.
sentimental spring and sorrow, set off the autumn don't hate. The artistic conception is beautiful and sad, sad and moving. Poets and ci writers mirror all phenomena with their hearts, and speak on behalf of the mountains and rivers. The emotions of life and the natural scene blend and permeate each other to form the artistic conception, an aesthetic realm that starts from the image and transcends the image. In ancient Chinese literature, the
pavilion has become a means and sustenance for literati to express their aesthetic ideals and create a lyrical mood. It has profound aesthetics and cultural heritage, and is an important treasure and source of inspiration for our traditional culture.
