Poetry about writing imagery

1. Ancient poems about imagery

1. The moon

"When Will the Spring Flowers and Autumn Moon Come?" Five Dynasties: Li Yu

When are spring flowers and autumn moon? How much do you know about the past? There was an east wind in the small building last night, and the motherland could not bear to look back at the bright moon.

The carved railings and jade inlays should still be there, but the beauty has changed. How much sorrow can you have? Just like a river of spring water flowing eastward. (Wallen Pass: Lan)

Interpretation:

When will this year end? How many past events do we know! Last night, the spring breeze blew again from the small building. How could I endure the pain of recalling my homeland on this bright moonlit night? The finely carved railings and jade steps should still be there, but the person I miss is already aging. Ask me how much sadness is in my heart, just like the water of the endless spring river flowing eastward.

2. Ice and Snow

"Niannujiao·Crossing the Dongting" Song Dynasty: Zhang Xiaoxiang

The green grass in the Dongting, near the Mid-Autumn Festival, has no wind at all. There are 30,000 hectares of Qiongtian in the Jade Realm, one leaf of my boat. The moon is shining brightly, and the bright river is shining brightly, making it clear both inside and outside. It's hard to tell you the beauty of this leisurely understanding. (Same as: Author; Jade World, 1st work: Jade Mirror)

Ying Nian Ridge has been standing for many years, the solitary light shines on itself, and the liver and gallbladder are all covered with ice and snow. The short hair is fluttery, the sleeves are cold, and the waves are steady and wide. Stroll the Xijiang River, pour the Beidou carefully, and treat everything as a guest. The boat is whistling alone, I don’t know what night it is. (The first work of Canglang: Cangming; the first work of Lingbiao: Linghai)

Interpretation:

Dongting Lake is connected with Qingcao Lake and is vast and boundless. In the approaching Mid-Autumn Festival, it is even more beautiful. There is no wind at all. Under the autumn moon, the vast and vast lake carried my small boat. The bright moon and the brilliant Milky Way reflected their beauty in the vast jade mirror, and the water above and below was bright and clear. Feeling the emptiness of all things, I don’t know how to share this wonderful experience with you.

I feel grateful for this bright moon that shines alone. It has wandered between the mountains and the sea for many years, and my heart is as bright and upright as pure as ice and snow. At this moment, I am wearing thin clothes, calmly boating in this vast and vast sky. Let me hold up all the clear water of the Xijiang River and pour it carefully into the wine spoon made of the Big Dipper. I invite all the creatures in the world to be my guests. I slap the side of my boat to my heart's content and sing loudly alone. How can I remember? What year is this!

3. Willow tree

"Farewell Poems" Sui Dynasty: Anonymous

Willows hang green on the ground, and poplar flowers are flying in the sky.

When all the wicker branches are broken and the flowers fly away, I would like to ask the passers-by if they will return home?

Definition:

The willows are green and their branches and leaves hang down to the ground. Yang flowers are dancing in the air. When I say goodbye, the willow branches in my eyes are broken and the poplar flowers are gone. May I ask when will those who have traveled far away come back?

4. Changting Pavilion

"Bodhisattva Man·Pinglin Desert Smoke is like weaving" Tang Dynasty: Li Bai

Pinglin Desert Smoke is like weaving, and the Hanshan area is sad and green. It's dark when you enter a high-rise building, and there are people upstairs who are worried.

The jade steps stand in the air, and the birds return home in a hurry. Where is the return journey? The long pavilion is connected with the short pavilion. (Lian Duo Pavilion, one work: Geng Duo Pavilion)

Interpretation:

The dusk smoke above the stretching woods in the distance is shrouded in mist, and it is still a sad green color. The night filled the tall boudoir, and someone was worrying alone upstairs. On the jade steps, I stand waiting in vain. The bird returning to its nest flies, urged by its returning heart. Where is my return journey? I only saw long pavilions connected to short pavilions on the road.

5. Hongyan

"Die Lian Hua·Luo Yi wet with tears and full of powder" Song Dynasty: Li Qingzhao

Luo Yi wet with tears and full of powder, four folds of Yangguan , sang thousands of times. The mountain of human nature is long and broken, and the gentle rain is heard in the solitary hall. (Chang Shan, a work of Chang Shui)

I feel sad and sad when I leave, and I forget about the depth of the wine cup before leaving. It's easy to pass the music book over the wild geese. Donglai is not as far away as Penglai.

Definition:

When I parted with my sisters, my clothes and cheeks were wet with tears of farewell. I sang the "Yangguan Song" in farewell over and over again. Even if there are thousands of words, it is difficult to express my feelings. Now I am in a foreign land, looking at the mountains and rivers of Laizhou. In the boarding house, the autumn rain is falling, and I can't help but feel infinitely desolate.

I was so disturbed by the emotions of separation that I didn’t know how the sisters drank the farewell wine during the farewell party. I had no idea whether the wine in the glass was dark or light. Finally, I told my sisters that you should let the passing geese bring you the news to comfort my heart. After all, Donglai is not as far away as Penglai. 2. Looking for 10 images and poems about these 10 images

1. Chrysanthemum: Although chrysanthemum cannot be compared with the national beauty and fragrant peony, nor can it be compared with the orchid that is a hundred times more valuable, but as Aoshuang Flower, it has always been favored by literati. Some people praise its strong character, while others appreciate its noble temperament.

Qu Yuan's "Li Sao": "Drinking magnolias in the morning are like dews, and eating autumn chrysanthemums in the evening are like falling flowers." The poet symbolizes his nobility and purity of character by drinking dew and eating flowers.

"Chrysanthemums" by Yuan Zhen of the Tang Dynasty: "The autumn bushes surround the house like Tao's house, all around the fence and gradually slanting. It's not that chrysanthemums are preferred among flowers. If these flowers are in full bloom, there will be no flowers."

Expresses the poet's pursuit of steadfastness and noble character. Others "I would rather die holding the fragrance on the branches than blowing down among the flowers" ("Cold Chrysanthemum" by Zheng Sixiao of the Song Dynasty), "The lonely east fence is wet with dew, and the gold in front shines on the sand" ("Two Chrysanthemums after the Double Ninth Festival" by Fan Chengda of the Song Dynasty) In other poems, chrysanthemums are used to express the poet's spiritual quality. The chrysanthemum here has undoubtedly become a portrayal of the poet's personality.

2 Plum blossoms: Plum blossoms are the first to bloom in the severe cold, and then lead to the fragrance of brilliant flowers. Therefore, plum blossoms, like chrysanthemums, are admired and praised by poets. "Plum Blossom" by Chen Liang of the Song Dynasty: "One flower suddenly changes first, and hundreds of flowers are fragrant later."

The poet grasped the characteristics of plum blossoms that bloom first, and wrote a story about not being afraid of setbacks and daring to be the first in the world. Quality is not only a tribute to Mei, but also to oneself. 3. Pine The pine tree is a model of standing proud of the frost and fighting the snow, and is naturally the object of praise.

Li Bai's "Book to Serve Huang Shang": "I hope you will learn from the pine tree, but be careful not to be a peach and plum." Wei Huangshang has always flattered the powerful, and Li Bai wrote poems to persuade him, hoping that he would become an upright person.

Liu Zhen, a native of the Three Kingdoms, wrote in "Gift to Congdi": "Don't you suffer from the cold, because pines and cypresses have their own nature." With this sentence, the poet encouraged his cousin to be as loyal as giving him pine and cypresses, and to maintain a noble attitude under any circumstances. quality.

4 Lotus: Since "Lotus" and "Pity" have the same sound, there are many poems about lotus in ancient poems to express love. For example, "Xizhou Song" by Yuefu in the Southern Dynasties: "In autumn, lotus flowers are collected in Nantang, and the lotus flowers exceed people's heads; I lower my head to pick up lotus seeds, and the lotus seeds are as green as water."

"Lotus seeds" means "pity", and "green" means "qing" . This is both real and fictitious writing, with semantic puns and homophonic pun rhetoric, expressing a woman's deep longing for the man she loves and the purity of her love.

35 of "Forty-Two Midnight Songs" of Jin Dynasty: "The mist and dew hide the hibiscus, and the lotus is not clearly visible." The mist and dew conceal the true face of the lotus, and the lotus leaves are visible but not clearly distinguishable. This is also a method of using homophonic puns to describe a woman who vaguely feels that her man is in love with her.

5. Wutong: Wutong is a symbol of desolation and sadness. For example, Wang Changling's "Chang Xin Qiu Ci": "The autumn leaves of Jinjing sycamores are yellow, and the bead curtains are not curled by the night frost.

The jade pillow in the smoked cage has no color, and I lie down and listen to the clear water of Nangong." It writes about being deprived. It depicts the scene of a young girl who has lost her youth, freedom and happiness, lying alone in a desolate and lonely palace, listening to uterine leakage.

The first sentence of the poem breaks the title with the yellowing sycamore leaves beside the well, which creates a bleak and lonely atmosphere. Xu Zaisi of the Yuan Dynasty "Double Tune Water Fairy?" "Night Rain": "The sound of phoenix leaves and the sound of autumn, the sound of banana leaves and sadness, the third watch returns to the dream after the third watch."

Write all the sorrowful thoughts with the falling sycamore leaves and the rain hitting the banana. Others include "One leaf, one sound, and the empty steps are dripping into the morning" (Tang Dynasty Wen Tingyun's "Geng Liuzi"), "The sycamore tree is also drizzling, and at dusk, it is dripping bit by bit" (Li Qingzhao's "Slow Sound"), etc.

6 Cuckoo Bird In ancient mythology, King Du Yu of Shu (ie Emperor Wang) was forced to give up his throne to his ministers, so he lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and his soul turned into a cuckoo after his death. Therefore, the cuckoo in ancient poetry has become a symbol of desolation and sadness.

Li Bai's "Hearing that Wang Changling moved to the left and Longbiao was far away sent this message": "The poplar flowers have fallen and the son is crying, and I heard that the dragon has passed the five streams. I send my sorrowful heart and the bright moon, and follow the wind until the night is west." ”

The Zigui bird is the cuckoo bird.

The sentence begins with the scene in front of your eyes, embodying the sadness of parting in the desolate and desolate natural scenery.

Three or four sentences express the infinite nostalgia and deep sympathy for friends with rich imagination about the bright moon. Song Dynasty He Zhu's "Remembering Qin'e": "The third watch of the moon shines on the pear blossoms and snow in the courtyard; the pear blossoms and snow are so miserable that the cuckoo cries blood."

The third watch of the moon shines on the snow-white pear blossoms in the courtyard, The cuckoo bird is chirping sadly, which makes people miss their loved ones even more and feel heartbroken. The poet expressed his deep nostalgia by describing the desolate scenery.

Others are as follows: "It's so cold in spring when the solitary house is closed, and the sun is setting at dusk in the sound of cuckoos" (Qin Guan of the Tang Dynasty, "Treading on the Shasha"), "Zigui is still crying for blood in the middle of the night, and he won't come back if he doesn't believe that the east wind calls him back" (Song Dynasty) Ren Wangling's "Send Spring") and others all use the cuckoo's cry to express sadness, desolation or longing for home. 7 Partridge: The image of partridge also has specific connotations in ancient poetry.

The call of the partridge makes people sound like "brother who can't do it", which can easily evoke the association of a difficult and dangerous journey and the sadness of separation. For example, "The autumn grass is shining brightly in the vast sky, and the partridges are crowing far away." (Li Qunyu of the Tang Dynasty, "I heard the partridges on Jiuzipo"), "The river is still sad in the evening, and I hear the partridges deep in the mountains" (Xin Qiji, "Bodhisattva Man? Book on the Ostomy Wall of Jiangxi") ), etc. The partridge in the poem is not a bird in a purely objective sense.

8 Chilling Cicada: The cicada after autumn cannot live long. After the autumn rain, the cicada will only have a few intermittent whines, and its life is at stake. Therefore, chilling has become synonymous with sadness.

For example, the first two sentences of "Cicada" by Luo Binwang of the Tang Dynasty: "The cicadas sing in the western continent, and the guests in the southern crown think deeply." The cicada sings loudly to exaggerate his deep nostalgia for his homeland in prison.

The song "Rain Lin Ling" by Liu Yong of the Song Dynasty begins: "The cicadas are mournful, facing the pavilion at night, and the showers have begun to subside." Before the direct description of separation, the feeling of "miserable and miserable" is already full. In the readers' hearts, an atmosphere is brewed that is enough to trigger the sadness of separation.

Poems such as "The cicadas chirp at my side" ("Giving the White Horse to Wang Biao" by Cao Zhi, a native of the Three Kingdoms) also express this sentiment. In addition, "Drinking the clear dew from the drapery, the sound of the flowing tung trees.

The loud voice is far away, not because of the autumn wind." In this poem, Yu Shinan uses the image of a cicada to express himself as a feudal scholar-bureaucrat. of nobility.

9. Hongyan: Hongyan is a large migratory bird. It migrates south every autumn, often causing tourists to feel homesick for their hometown and feel sad about traveling. 10 Aihong: A metaphor for a person who is sad, suffering and homeless.

Gong Zizhen's "Miscellaneous Poems of Jihai": "In the middle of the night, Zhen (zhěn, grief) suddenly mourns Hong Si, and in September there is no raincoat on the Huai River." It writes about the painful and displaced life of the people.

The term "Aihong" comes from "Poetry?" Xiaoya? "Swan Geese": "Swan geese are flying, whining and wailing. The wise man who maintains this saying calls me hard work."

The poem writes that envoys travel in all directions and see refugees like swan geese flying in the wild, refugees.

Understanding of imagery What is imagery? Simply understand: it is a metaphorical image, a creative method that uses objective objects to express subjective emotions; this is a special term belonging to Chinese poetics and aesthetics, and the two words cover two aspects of content.

That is, "meaning" and "image".

Yi, that is, conception, is the central idea that the author wants to express; Xiang, that is, image, is the "prop" specially selected by the author to "sensation".

These "props" are all very specific objective images. (About the textual explanation of the word image: It is an artistic image that is materialized or solidified by objective objects through the unique aesthetic activities of the creative subject; it is the organic integration and unity of the subject and the object, the heart and the object, and the idea and the image. ; It is an objective object that is integrated into subjective feelings, or expresses subjective feelings through objective objects; it is a portrayal of real life, a crystallization of aesthetic creation, and a carrier of emotional ideas; it is the unity of the external scene of life and the poet's inner feelings; it is the poet's emotion A form of externalization; an image with special or profound meaning)

Generally speaking, image is the perfect combination of thoughts, emotions and specific objects. The "meaning" is in a dominant position, the "meaning" determines the "image", and the "image" reflects the "meaning"; the meaning comes from the heart and is expressed with the help of the image.

The meaning is looming in the image, and seems to be ready to come out. However, the image seems to be intentional or unintentional, and it is colored and bloomed by the intention. This is the so-called "hint of meaning and coincidence of image".

Imagery is the organic integration and unity of subject and object, mind and object, meaning and image. Scholars have studied it from the aspects of literature and art, psychology, linguistics, aesthetics, creation and appreciation, etc. A complex system can be formed for imagery. For example: the objects, representations, mental images, language images, etc. that make up the image are very complicated to describe in detail.

However, here we can focus on the concept of "object image", because in our daily life and extensive contact with society and nature, the most intuitive and preconceived thing is "object image". It can be said that It is the foundation that forms the image of the work. We already know: "Xiang" is an objective "Xiang", that is, scenes, objects, and things.

Originally refers to the image or scene of specific things. "Xiang" is a concrete and perceptible objective thing.

Then "object image" is an important component of "image". Object images are the concrete images of various objectively existing people, objects, and scenery and their development and changing states, or various forms of social life.

It is the object of observation by writers and artists, and is the basis of artistic images. Object images have two levels of meaning. One is the objective natural existing object image. It is objective and does not depend on the existence of human beings and does not change due to human emotions.

For example, Du Fu's famous poem "Spring View" describes the desolate scene when the country is in turmoil due to war: "I feel the flowers splashing with tears, and I hate the birds that are leaving." The words "flower" and "bird" in it "That is, natural scenery, flowers blooming and falling, birds sitting and flying, all have their own growth patterns and living habits, and they will not change due to changes in human emotions. The second is the object image in "imagery", They are the corresponding purely natural things that the artist pays attention to and discovers that can express "ideas" and choose them. It is the objective material and humanistic quasi-existence expressed by the author in the form of language in his works, and is composed of specific names.

Taking Du Fu's poem as an example, since both "flower" and "bird" were chosen by the author to be included in the poem, they became images chosen by the author to convey his meaning, so this "flower" is They are no longer flowers that originally grew in the soil, and "birds" are no longer simply birds in the woods. They are endowed with thoughts and emotions by the author. Because they have ": human nature", that is, human beings Because of the psychological and emotional intelligence, flowers will burst into tears due to sadness and worry, and birds will be heartbroken due to separation and hatred. In fact, the underlying message is that the author's heart was full of deep sorrow and worry, so he shed tears when he saw the petals falling, and he became more frightened when he heard the mournful cries of birds.

Among the components of the image, the object image is the material shell of the image and the carrier of the subjective content. It is objective, realistic, vivid and vivid, and creates a huge space for imagination and imagination.

In poetry creation, imitation of objects is inseparable, which is what we often call real writing. "All things are born in the state of mind". The author's emotional activities cannot be carried out abstractly. He must "walk between the spirit and the things" and attach beauty to the things.

According to certain standards, artists select and reject natural objects to find attachments for thoughts and emotions, thereby establishing the objects in the "image". The acquisition of object images is not made out of thin air. Fiction out of thin air cannot create vivid and concrete object images.

Life is the source of obtaining objects.

Of course, in many works, the images are not always a perfect combination of thoughts, emotions and specific objects.

"Image" and "Image" are not absolutely unified. Sometimes the focus of the image is on "Image". At this time, the image is presented as an object image in the literary text, which specifically refers to a pure image composed of specific named scenery and things. Imagery works are called "standing images to express the meaning". For example: Wang Changling's "Two orioles sing in the green willows, a row of egrets climbs the blue sky window, containing the snow of Qianqiu in the West Ridge, and the ship thousands of miles away from the East Wu is moored at the door." This is an object-image poem. , a combination of six kinds of scenery, namely: oriole, green willow, egret, blue sky, snow and moored boat, but vividly and vividly outlines a picture of joyful early spring in front of us; sometimes the focus of the image is on "meaning", It is divided into two situations. First, images appear as "language images" in literary texts (embellishment of images when expressing expressions); I will tentatively call it "pointed images to express the meaning". For example: Liu Yuxi's "Autumn Day" poem says: "Since ancient times, "Autumn is sad and lonely, I say that autumn is better than spring, and a crane rowing over the clouds in the clear sky brings poetry to the blue night." From the beginning to the end of this poem, except for the third sentence, which uses a natural object, that is, " Except for "a crane" in "Pai Yun Shang", the other three sentences all directly express the author's feelings. They seem to be a single description of objects, but they further highlight the author's boldness and freedom.

It also serves the purpose of scene blending. Another situation where "meaning" is the focus is called "expressing one's meaning directly" or "expressing one's heart directly" in many literary appreciations. In fact, this statement is biased, and it itself is the ambiguity of the concept of image.

Even if there is no direct description or embellishment of things, scenes and images in the work, as far as the "things" presented in the work at this time are concerned (things are the images expressed by events, things, things) it It is a kind of "image", so how can it be looked at. 5. Poems describing various images

Among nature’s rain, snow, wind and frost, snow is the most poetic and picturesque, so it is very popular among literati.

The descriptions and passionate praises of snow and flowers by poets of the past dynasties are even more dizzying and refreshing. 1. The last chapter of "Xiaoya, Picking Wei" in "The Book of Songs": In the past, I went away, and the willows clung to them. Now I come to think about it, and the rain and snow are falling.

When it starts snowing, snowdrops fall first. Sometimes snowfall is also accompanied by rainfall, so there is a saying of "rain and snow are falling". 2. A couplet of poems from the Jin Dynasty to express gratitude to Taifu Hanxue. On the day of Hanxue, he gathered his children to talk about their righteous deeds. It was snowing heavily. The Duke said: "What is the difference between the heavy snowfall?" The brother said: "Sprinkle salt in the air to make up for the difference." The brother and daughter said: " "Not if catkins are blown by the wind" can be regarded as a couplet of poems chanting snow with synonymous rhyme and meaning.

Use "salt in the air" and "catkins blown by the wind" to compare "heavy snow", each with its own merits. Some people think that "sprinkling salt in the sky" is a good metaphor. The color and falling state of snow are closer to that of salt, while catkins are gray-white and tend to rise in the wind, and even fly higher and farther, which is different from the way snow dances.

When writing something, one must first obtain physical resemblance and then reach spiritual resemblance. Appearance is the foundation. Some people think that "catkins blowing in the wind" is a good metaphor. It gives people the feeling that spring is coming and has profound implications.

What the metaphor of "spreading salt" lacks is precisely the meaning. Good poetry must have imagery, and imagery is the unity of object image and connotation. The metaphor of "catkins" is good because of its imagery.

3. Liang Wujun in the Southern Dynasties wrote a five-character poem "Song of Snow", which is close to rhythmic style and has been a famous poem that has been passed down through the ages: "The breeze shakes the trees in the garden, and the fine snow falls under the curtains. It lingers in the sky like mist. , The steps are like flowers.

There are no willows in spring, only the white osmanthus branches are seen. There are no human beings with no tears. "

The first six sentences of the whole poem describe the scene, and the last two sentences. The two lyrical sentences are very charming. Whether they are describing the dynamic beauty of snow "like fog turning" or the static beauty of snow "like flowers accumulating", they can describe the scene that is difficult to describe as it is now. 4. (1) "Travel to the North Wind" by Li Bai of the Tang Dynasty: The snowflakes on Yanshan Mountain were as big as a mat, and they blew down Xuanyuan Terrace.

[Appreciation] The snowflakes in Yanshan area are as big as mats, and they fall on Xuanyuan Terrace one by one. This is Li Bai's famous sentence describing snowflakes.

Yanshan is located in the southeast of Ji County, Hebei Province, which generally refers to northern my country. The Xuanyuan Terrace site is located on Qiaoshan Mountain in Huailai County, Hebei Province today.

The sentence says "the snow is as big as a mat", which is a high degree of artistic exaggeration, but it does not lose its truth. Just as Lu Xun said in the article "Discussing "Cartoons"": "'The snowflakes in Yanshan are as big as mats' are an exaggeration, but there are snowflakes in Yanshan, and there is a little bit of honesty in them, which makes us immediately know that Yanshan is so cold.

It would be a joke to say that the snowflakes in Guangzhou are as big as mats. " (2) "Night Snow" by Bai Juyi of the Tang Dynasty: I was surprised that the quilt pillow was cold, and I saw the bright window again.

Late at night, I know the snow is heavy, and I sometimes hear the sound of breaking bamboo. The sound of breaking bamboo. ”

It’s late at night, and I know the snow is falling very thickly, and I hear the sound of breaking bamboos from time to time. [Appreciation] When describing snow, I usually write about its color and shape, but it’s difficult to describe snow in the middle of the night. It is expressed through visual images, so the poet changed vision to hearing.

Of course, the snow itself has no sound, so the poet expressed it by "hearing the sound of breaking bamboo". Late at night, the poet, who had been awake all night, heard the sound of breaking bamboo from outside, and knew that a thick layer of snow had fallen, which actually crushed many bamboos.

Describe through hearing. Snow is the main feature of these two poems. (3) Cen Shen's "Song of White Snow": "Suddenly, a spring breeze came overnight, and thousands of pear blossoms bloomed. "

[Appreciation] This is a beautiful poem about snow that has been passed down through the ages. It is very novel to use pear blossoms as a metaphor for snow. When I read it, a beautiful scene of spring breeze bringing warmth and pear blossoms in full bloom immediately appeared in front of my eyes.

(4) "Spring Snow" by Han Yu: There is no bloom in the new year, and the grass buds are surprised to see in early February, but the white snow is too late for spring, so it flies through the trees in the garden.

[Appreciation] This poem. The poem "Feixue in Early Spring" is novel in conception, unique and surprising. The first two sentences are about the fact that the New Year has passed, but there are no traces of fragrant flowers.

In early spring, people go out. I was surprised to find that a few grass buds had grown on the ground. People who had spent the long cold winter were looking forward to seeing spring soon, and "Du" showed people's eagerness for spring and their resentment at not seeing any news of spring.

The word "surprise" expresses the joy of seeing spring coming. (5) Luo Yin's "Snow": What will happen in a good year? Those who are poor in Chang'an should not be too lucky! Auspicious snow heralds a good year, but for the poor people, it turns out to be a disaster.
