Urgent: Yan Shu's Background in "Flowers Near"

Look at the author before explaining the word. Yan Shu (99 1- 1055) was born in Linchuan, Fuzhou, Northern Song Dynasty (now Fuzhou, Jiangxi). He was a scholar at the age of seven. At the beginning of Jingdezhen, Zhang appeased Jiangnan and recommended him as a child prodigy. The emperor summoned more than 1000 scholars and tried the court. He was fearless, won the appreciation of the true Sect, and was given the same background as a scholar. After the second interview, the secretary saved the orthography and read all the books in the secretary's cupboard, thus increasing his knowledge. Hanlin's bachelor's move was deeply relied on by the true Sect. "Biography of the History of the Song Dynasty" said: "Every time the emperor visited, he wrote a fine book with a small piece of paper, received it and sealed it (it should be high above the wood). The emperor paid attention to its caution. " After Renzong succeeded to the throne, he trusted him more and held important positions. In the anniversary calendar, he was promoted to a bachelor's degree, a Tang dynasty envoy and a general secretary of the same book (and also a prime minister of civil and military affairs) in Jixian Hall. A year later, he was demoted to the Ministry of Industry, then became a local official in Yingzhou, Chen Zhou, Xuzhou and other places, and later was promoted to the Ministry of Industry. At the age of 64, he died of illness. Although Injong attended the funeral in person, he hated it because he didn't care about his illness. After his death, some people gave him and Shi Zhong, and others gave him yuan. Renzong personally sealed his monument, saying, "The monument of old learning."

Scholar Yan Shu, who has met people, knows people very well. 1027, when he was in Yingtianfu, Nanjing (now Shangqiu, Henan Province), in view of the fact that the schools in the world had been abolished since the Five Dynasties, he "built a school in Daxing to teach students." Fan Yan China Tobacco attracts talents by teaching students and apprentices. When he did this, he asked scholars to collect salt, and most of them later appeared in the imperial court and the imperial court. In addition to Fan Zhongyan, Han Qi, Fu Bi, Ouyang Xiu, Song Qi and other historical celebrities all came from his door. At one time, the education that had been abandoned for a long time since the Five Dynasties was quickly revived. On the one hand, it is the study of Guoxing, on the other hand, it is also to cultivate and reserve talents for the country.

Apart from educational reform, The History of Song Dynasty also mentioned two things to show his superb knowledge. The legend goes like this: "Renzong ascended the throne, and Zhang Xi 'an gave the empress dowager the power to listen to politics by testamentary edict. Ding Wei, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, and Cao Liyong, the special envoy of the Tang Dynasty, both wanted to see things alone, and neither dared to make a decision. Special advice, the minister plays the queen mother, and listen to it. I can't see any of them. The discussion decided. " Another thing is: "Shaanxi used troops (referring to the Xixia border), specifically asking the internal minister to supervise the soldiers, instead of giving the general the battle plan, letting them attack and defend the enemy, recruiting archers and teaching them to prepare for the battle. Please also ask the palace official to help the border customs, and those who receive property from his company will pay it back. Be conscious. " It serves to show that he is really super knowledgeable.

His contribution to literature is also various. He is good at poetry and words, and his articles are beautiful. He is good at writing and calligraphy. The book History of the Song Dynasty says that he "worked tirelessly in his later years, collecting 240 volumes, deleting the collection of famous ministers after Chen Liang and choosing 100 volumes." There are poems and Yan's posthumous works compiled by Qing people. There is also a book called Yao Lei, and there are only remnants left.

His ci style has been inherited for five generations and is deeply influenced by Feng Yanji. He is good at creating words, writing landscapes and feelings. Generally speaking, it is unfair that his poems are poor in content. Because the ci at that time was mainly about scenery description and lyricism, it was not until Fan Zhongyan began to integrate the worries of frontier fortress into his ci, but it failed to become a common practice. Feng Xu's On Haoan Ci is relatively dull. "Yan is not as far away as the Five Dynasties, and Xin Lie is the first to win. Therefore, the left palace and the right, harmony and Ming, is the ancestor of Yishen in the Northern Song Dynasty. " Generally speaking, his position in Song Ci is a link between the past and the future, which has a certain influence on Ouyang Xiu and Yan. On the one hand, he absorbed the beauty of Yangchunji, on the other hand, he avoided the richness and delicacy of Huajianji, which shows that he formed his own specific style of ci between choice and choice. Critics praised him as "the first way to guide Song Ci", which is a proper evaluation! Through the above analysis, we can see Yan Shu's inner grief at that time. The withered trees in the west wind fully expressed the impact of parting on his life. Interestingly, Ms. Ye Jiaying has a completely different understanding. In Tan Jialing Ci, Ms. Ye said: "In Taiwan Province Province, there are no obvious changes in the four seasons, and the realm expressed by these three words is not easy to understand. In the north of the mainland, when the golden wind blows, it is an extremely urgent and obvious phenomenon that the vegetation withers and decays. Leaves fall from the long forest, and the wind floats in the fields, showing the height of heaven and earth in a blink of an eye. The new cold is like water, which not only invades the bones and muscles, but also refreshes people. Occasionally climbing mountains and overlooking, a sense of vastness will make people feel refreshed. " Obviously, Ms. Ye didn't understand the metaphor here! I was born in Guangzhou, grew up in Hongkong in the south of China, and studied in Taiwan Province Province. I believed what she said when I was in college, but I didn't know until I lived in northern Europe at high latitude for a long time! Every year, there is no phenomenon that the west wind dies the green trees overnight, but it is step by step. Obviously, Yan Shu just borrowed the tree in literature to express her inner shock! Ms. Ye spent so many gorgeous words to explain, which shows that she did not face up to Yan Shu's true feelings!

In her same book, there is an Appreciation of Wild Goose Ci, and her opinions are even more novel. She classified Yan Shu as "Goose is a rational poet". In this article, she said: "Generally speaking, a poet's personality can be divided into two types: one is a successful type, and the other is a failed type. The type of success can be regarded as a rational poet in personality, and the type of failure can be regarded as a pure poet. " This statement obviously made two mistakes. The first is the abuse of philosophical terms. Secondly, it is obviously unreasonable to divide the poet's "character" into two categories: success and failure. If this view is necessarily related to the success or failure of the poet's career, it is even more far-fetched. Because a successful poet can't guarantee that there will be no setbacks in other aspects, especially the twists and turns like feelings! This will lead to sadness. A poet who fails in his career may also gain something in other aspects, thus moving towards happiness. Moreover, we can only say that a certain personality is more likely to lead to success, or that a certain personality is more likely to lead to failure. On the contrary, the "character" of a person or poet is unheard of in terms of success or failure! It is even less convincing to further promote the expression of "rational poets" and "pure poets". As for the word rationality, according to Kant, it can be divided into pure rationality and practical rationality. The former is the speculative application of reason, while the latter is the practical application of reason. I wonder which one Miss Ye Jiaying likes? Or something else? Obviously, Ms. Ye's distinction was misled by Mr. Wang Guowei's division of poets into "subjective poets" and "objective poets", which she also admitted in this article. Now let's take a look at what Mr. Wang Guowei said. "Words on Earth" said: "Poets are childlike. Therefore, being born in the palace and growing up in the hands of women is the weakness of the late master as a gentleman, which is also the strength of the poet. It is impossible for an objective poet to read more about the world. The deeper he reads about the world, the richer and more diverse his materials will be. The author of Water Margin Dream of Red Mansions is also. Subjective poets don't have to read more about the world. The shallower they look at the world, the truer their temperament. Li Houzhu also. "

First of all, I want to point out that there are two mistakes in Mr. Wang Guowei's statement. First, the authors of Water Margin and A Dream of Red Mansions are not poets at all, let alone so-called objective poets. They are novelists. A novelist's rich life experience is certainly one of the advantages of writing novels, but it is not absolute, depending on what kind of novels he writes. I don't see any relationship between Wu Cheng'en and Cao Xueqin and poets or objective poets. The second is the abuse of philosophical terms. "Subjective" and "objective" can be used at will? Is epistemology or metaphysics inhibiting the use of aesthetics? Mr. Wang Guowei has no definition. It was only used once in "Words on Earth". We understand his context sympathetically, and we know that he just wants to explain that "lyricism" and "realism" have different emphases, so what is subjective and objective? Is it really more fascinating or convincing to add some philosophical terms that are tall? Obviously, Ms. Ye Jiaying developed Mr. Wang Guowei's "subjective poet" into a "pure poet" and "objective poet" into a "rational poet" without criticizing. She even classified Yan Shu as a "rational poet"! On this basis, some of Yan Shu's works are given strange explanations that conform to her settings. Like Yan Shu's "Huanxi Sand": "Everywhere there are mountains and rivers, the falling flowers are even more harmful to spring. It is better to pity the people in front of you. " The same sentence "It is better to cherish the present than to cherish it" appeared in Yan Shu's "Spring on the Jade Tower". "It is better to pity the present, so as not to have a bitter dream." As far as I know, Yan Shu deeply regrets that she didn't cherish each other (maybe it was the same girl in Recent Flowers! It is useless to lament the distance between mountains and rivers, the wind and frost of falling flowers, and the efforts of the soul now. How does this help? Why didn't he really realize it until the person in front of him really left him? Only then did he realize how stupid it was. I think what he kept saying in his head was, "Why! Why is this happening? " However, Ms. Ye Jiaying has a completely different explanation. Because she believes that Yan Shu is a "rational poet", she explained in the same article: "If there is a sentence everywhere, readers will feel that life is not good for all unattainable things. Apart from hurting the feelings of spring, falling flowers remind people that the sadness of life is futile for all irreparable things. As for the phrase "pity the present", it reminds people not only of the present person, but also of what should be cherished and grasped now. In another poem in Lou Yuchun, the wild goose once said: It is better to pity the people in front of you, so as not to dream of hard work. From the repeated use of this sentence, we can realize that the person in front of us repeatedly mentioned by the geese really only shows the sober rationality of the geese in the face of reality. " There is no doubt that Ms. Ye presupposed a viewpoint, and then used this viewpoint to explain the content of Yan Shu's ci, which is very similar to Yan Shu's grief and indignation becoming rational after he became a rational poet. Is there rational sadness? Ms. Ye said in the same article: "I thought there was persistent enthusiasm in sadness. In the sadness of June 1, there is a sense of grandeur. In Dayu's sadness, everything is an open-minded hug. " Solid! This is really profound, Luo Zhi! It has been more than 900 years since I read Wan Yanshu's The Recent Flower. I can still feel his real pain, and under the guidance of what she called a "rational poet", Ms. Ye has ignored the grief of others. This just shows that she has never understood the meaning of using trees to describe people. Of course, rational poets do not exist. So, do you think there are objective poets in the world? Who is he?

(Note): Another poem by Yan Shu, "Picking Mulberry Seeds", wrote: "Last night, the west wind of the phoenix tree was fierce, and the moon was bright and dreamy. Where is the tall building? " Similarly, it was obviously born in Li Houzhu.

Give birth to such a perverted understanding!
