What are the meanings of common images in farewell poems?

First, farewell images (or expressing reluctant feelings, or describing thoughts after parting)

1. Willow. It originated from The Book of Songs Xiaoya Cai Wei, "I was absent in the past, Liu Yiyi; Today I think about it, it's raining ",and the reluctant state of willow trees and the reluctant feeling of farewell are combined." "Liu" and "Liu" are homophonic. When the ancients bid farewell, they often expressed their deep feelings of parting by folding willows, so that many literati used this to express their resentment and nostalgia. For example, in Liu Yong's "Yu Lin Ling", "Where to wake up tonight? "Yang Liuan", "The Twilight of the Morning Wind" and so on.

2. Pavilion. In ancient times, there were pavilions along the road for travelers to stop to rest or see off. For example, Yu Xin, a writer in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, wrote "Mourning for the South of the Yangtze River": "Ten miles and five miles, roadside pavilions. It's called ten miles and one long pavilion, and five miles and one short pavilion. " "Long Pavilion" has become an image with feelings of parting, which constantly appears in ancient farewell poems. For example, in Liu Yong's Yulin Order, "It's cold and sad, and the pavilion is too late".

3. Nanpu. Nanpu often appears in the farewell poems of the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, and becomes a common image in the farewell poems, which has a lot to do with the famous sentence "Go east to exchange children and send beautiful women to Nanpu" in Qu Yuan's Nine Songs Hebo. Jiang Yan, a writer in the Southern Dynasties, wrote about Beppu ("Spring grass is green and spring water is surging. It hurts to send you to Nanpu!" After that, Nanpu obviously added farewell poems; It is more common in farewell poems in Tang and Song Dynasties, such as "Nanpu is sad, and the west wind rolls autumn" in Bai Juyi's Nanpu Bie in Tang Dynasty.

4. wine. Yang Zai, the Yuan Song, said, "Anyone who gives people more wine to show their feelings and writes about the scenery to cheer them up is grateful." Wine can not only relieve depression, but also contain deep blessings. There are countless poems that associate wine with parting. For example, Wang Wei's "Wei Cheng Qu" advises you to drink more and leave Yangguan for no reason, and Bai Juyi's "Drinking without joy, leaving without joy, being broad and bright" all use wine to express your feelings of parting.

Second, homesickness (or expressing homesickness or caring for relatives)

1. Moon. Generally speaking, the moon in ancient poems is synonymous with homesickness. For example, Li Bai's "Thinking about a Quiet Night": "The foot of the bed is bright, is there frost? . Looking up, I found that it was moonlight, sinking again, and I suddenly thought of home. " Especially Su Shi's When is the Bright Moon? : "I hope people will live for a long time and have a good scenery for thousands of miles." Starting from good wishes, write brotherhood. The artistic conception is open-minded, cheerful and meaningful, and you can experience the unfathomable and wonderful natural realm.

2. Hongyan: Hongyan is a large migratory bird. Every autumn, it struggles to fly back to its lair, which often causes homesickness and sadness of wanderers, so poets often use geese to express their feelings. For example, in Li Qingzhao's "A Piece of Plum", "The word geese return, and the moon is full of the West Building". In the West Chamber at the end of Yuan Dynasty, Cui Yingying Changting sang "Blue sky and yellow land, tight west wind, flying north and south". Who is drunk in Xiao Lai's frost forest? Always leaving people crying ",the scene is born together, and its feelings are unbearable, and it has become a swan song. "

3. Braised bass. Canon "Hanshu Zhangzhuan". According to legend, Hans Zhang of the Jin Dynasty was an official in Luoyang. Seeing the autumn wind, I thought of the delicious "Cuojiang Ji" in my hometown, so I resolutely abandoned my official position and returned to my hometown. From then on, the idiom "homesickness" was derived to express homesickness. Later, literati used "Chuigeng Road" and "Chuilu Qiu Si" to refer to homesickness. For example, Mr. Ma Xingye, the former president of the Kuomintang Central Daily, wrote a poem "Thank you for your delicious food": "Thank you for the sweet perch, the wild mountains and the Bohai Sea are fragrant. I feel a little tears in front of my eyes. I want to try raw fish. " How many people shed tears of homesickness and affection.

4. Double carp. Carp refers to letters, and the allusion comes from the poem "Drinking Horses in the Great Wall Cave" by Han Yuefu: "The guests came from afar and left me a pair of carp. Hu Er cooks carp with books in it. " In ancient times, people used carp-shaped letters to collect books and letters, so many literati also used carp instead of letters in their poems. For example, Yan, a poet in the Song Dynasty, wrote in "Butterfly Love Flowers": "Butterflies come, there is nowhere to ask, tall buildings are out of water, and Pisces are broken." A Qing poet Song Wan met Zhou Huacen: "Long-lost Iraqis, make a pair of carp."

In addition, there are behavioral images such as "smashing clothes", which also express concern for relatives. The state of dressing under the moon and the sound of the wind sending the anvil not only remind women of their own pain, but also easily touch the feelings of wanderers, so the image of dressing is also one of the traditional homesickness images. For example, in the third paragraph of Li Bai's Midnight Wu Ge in the Tang Dynasty, "A bright moon hangs high in the capital, and ten thousand hammers wash it. The autumn wind blew Yi Dao's voice, and every household remembered the people guarding the border. Oh, when will the Tatar army be conquered and when will my husband come back from the long battle! ? "
