The reason why I want to write such a short article is because I recently saw on the Internet that some of the poems that people think that "Poetry China" won are similar to oil poems. It cannot be said that there is anything wrong with this person's cognition, because reading poetry, reading poetry, appreciating poetry, everyone has everyone's understanding, which is beyond reproach.
The first thing to affirm is that oil poetry is also poetry. It is also an important part of everyday poetry. For example, the allegro, three and a half sentences, and the corresponding words in the quyi program also have the style of "playing oil poetry", and the many lyrics of the northeast duo are a vivid embodiment of this oil poetry. There are also shadows of oil poems in the lyrics of the opera. Some oil poems can also be called "shunkou slip", shunkou slip can be the sea and the sky, only pay attention to the rhyme of the sentence, ignore the connection between the meaning of the word and the meaning of the title, it can be said that "shunkou slip" also has the taste of poetry, but less "literature", is the low level of poetry. Ordinary people who are a little eloquent can also open their mouths and come. Oil poetry is called poetry, so it is true that it cannot be called poetry, but can be seen as another interesting language game. Regarding oil poetry, those who are interested can go to Baidu, where there are many experts and scholars or big coffee comments and summaries. Here is only a brief analysis of some characteristics of oil poetry and so-called literary poetry or archaic poetry in some aspects.
In fact, the so-called oil poetry has the same place in many ways as non-oil poetry. It also has the basic attributes of poetry, and some oil poems still have considerable standards.
The first is popularity. What is popular, of course, is to understand at a glance, there are no flowery and obscure words, and ordinary sentences are used to express their thoughts and feelings. There are too many such verses in the Tang Dynasty. as:
Such as Li Bai's "Gift to Wang Lun":
Li Bai will take the boat and want to go,
Overhearing the singing of the shore;
Peach Blossom Pond water depth of thousands of feet,
It's not as good as Wang Lun sending me affection.
Li Shen's "Mercy Nong"
At noon on the day of hoeing,
Sweat drops under the soil;
Who knows chinese food on the plate?
The grains are hard.
He Zhizhang's Wing Liu
Jasper dressed as a tree high,
Ten thousand hanging green silk tapestries;
I don't know who cut the fine leaves,
February spring breeze is like scissors.
These poems are not only very poetic, but also easy to understand. Therefore, many poems have been compiled into the teaching materials of children's enlightenment education, because young children and primary school students can also read and understand. If this kind of poetry is not from the ancients or celebrities like Li Bai, some people are afraid to say that it has the taste of oil.
The second is intuitiveness. Intuitiveness is to express the ideas and meanings expressed directly in plain language. This technique was used more often in the first poetry collection, the Book of Poetry. Predecessors summed up this flat and direct narrative, similar to white painting as "endowment". "Fu" and "Bixing" can also be said to be the basic artistic means of poetry, without which there would be no poetry. Ancient poetry in this form of poetry is more common and more frequent. Such as the following songs:
Kim Chang-seok's "Spring Grudge"
Raise the yellow warbler,
Mo Jiaozhi cries;
When crying, the concubine dreams,
Don't get Liaoxi.
Lu Meipo's "Snow Plum"
There is no snow without the spirit of plums,
There is no poetry of snow;
Sunset poetry into the sky and snow,
It is very springy with plums.
Wang Zhizhuo's "Climbing the Stork Tower"
Day by day by the end of the mountain,
The Yellow River flows into the sea.
Want to be poor,
Better.
Fan Chengda's "Four Hours of Pastoral Miscellaneous"
Day out of the ploughing field nocturnal hemp,
The sons and daughters of the village are in charge;
Tong Sun did not solve the offering of cultivation and weaving,
Also accompanied by mulberry yin learning to grow melons.
Li Shangyin's "Le You Yuan"
Discomfort to the evening,
Drive to Dengguhara;
The sunset is infinitely better,
It's just near dusk.
These poems are all directly expressive, there are words to say directly, laying out their things without leaving any residue, and wanting to say what they want to say. But this does not affect the poetic taste, on the contrary, the expression of ideas is more refined and concentrated.
The third is colloquialism. Colloquialism is also our usual spoken language. Many of the poems in the Book of Verses are close to the spoken language of the time. Although poetry writers avoid speaking, there are still many references. This kind of colloquial language, after the author's processing and refinement, forms a new form of literary language, and also makes the expression more popular and more dynamic. It has certain commonalities with the so-called oil poetry, and there are also certain differences. In particular, the "literary" nature of poetry is more obviously different from that of oil poetry. as:
Li Bai's "Night Meditation"
Bright moonlight in front of the bed,
Suspected to be ground frost.
Look up at the bright moon,
Look down and think of your hometown.
MengJiao's "Wandering Ziyin"
Mother's hand thread,
Wanderer shirt.
Rujia Island's "The Seeker Doesn't Meet"
Panasonic asked the boy,
The teacher took the medicine and went;
Only in this mountain,
The clouds are deep and unknown.
Zhang Hu's "Palace Words"
Three thousand miles from the homeland,
Twenty years in the deep palace;
A cry of "He Manzi"
Before the tears fell.
Although these poems are more colloquial, they are carefully selected by the author. As an ancient poem from more than a thousand years ago, we still have the feeling of nagging and are very easy to understand when we read it now.
The fourth is continuity. The rhyme of poetry is the most basic characteristic of poetry, and without rhyme it does not become poetry. Even if it is a modern free poem, it also has a certain rhyme. The rhymes in ancient poems have certain attention and requirements. In ancient poems, there are generally two rhymes, three rhymes in a few words, and two rhymes in the first sentence of the rhythmic poem. The characteristics of the rhyme of the oil poem are that it has continuous rhyme, and the so-called continuous rhyme is to rhyme from the first sentence and rhyme to the end.
As the following satirizes the liar:
The tongue does not bend,
The eyes do not circle,
Smoking does not smoke,
Talk without touching the edges.
These four sentences rhyme to the end, which is very smooth.
In addition to the above similar characteristics, oil poetry and non-oil poetry have many differences in essence.
First, from the perspective of ideological themes, the traditional classical poetry forms are more inclusive and open in terms of themes, whether it is writing scenes, lyrics, and speeches, and the theme ideas are diverse, documentary, exclamation, scene writing, chanting, yongshi, romance, etc., all-encompassing. The oil poems are more embodied in exposing a certain dark side of satirical society, exposing false ugliness, and only a few are expressed as praise for truth, goodness and beauty, but mainly the former. For example, someone wrote a new "good song" based on the "good song" of "Dream of the Red Chamber",
Satirize certain privileged phenomena:
I hope that the party style is good,
Only the official position can not be forgotten,
As long as the position is promoted three levels,
It's all naturally gone,
I also hope that the party style is good,
Only the car can't forget to cut,
Just wait for "Shanghai" to change "Mercedes-Benz"
The privilege is immediately revoked.
……
As in another satire on the cadre team phenomenon:
Age is a treasure, diploma is indispensable, virtue is a reference, how much silver to see? If you want to climb high, the background is the most important.
Second, from the perspective of the artistic conception of the poem, the traditional classical poetry method pays more attention to the creation of the artistic conception, the expression of thoughts and emotions, and the lyricism or allegorical philosophy of the scene. Oil poetry is more witty, humorous, funny, and sarcastic.
If there is one
The poem of the Wing Stone Pagoda,
Looking at the black stone tower from a distance,
The bottom is thin and the top is thick.
One day it will turn over,
There was a bride in the Qing Dynasty, who was made a big fuss by the guests, until late at night, forcing the bride to recite a poem, the bride was uneducated, could not write poetry, and was forced to do nothing.
He said in passing:
Thank goodness thank you,
Where would I groan?
Once remembered a Tang dynasty poem,
A moment of spring supper is worth a thousand gold.
This is a very interesting and interesting oil poem, if the bride left a name, it may be passed down through the ages.
Third, from the perspective of dispatching words, the classical poetry form, the refinement of vocabulary is accurate and more vivid. The tension of language has a certain epitaxial generalization. The colloquialism and colloquialism of oil poetry are more obvious and more commonly used. Colloquialism is the most characteristic sign of oil poetry, and it can be said that without the intervention of spoken language, there is no oil poetry.
Such as Zhang Gancai's "Waves":
Wave after wave,
The waves crashed on the stones,
Knowing that the front wave bent his waist,
The back wave will follow.
Satirize a social phenomenon
The leader speaks to you nagging
Lead the dish as you turn the table
Leaders listen to you touch yourself
Leader dance you talk nonsense
Fourth, from the perspective of artistic expression, the traditional classical poetry form uses a variety of rhetorical artistic techniques such as fu bixing, exaggeration, borrowing, modification, comparison, duality, row comparison, thimble, and inversion to express the meaning. Implicit, symbolic, metaphorical. Lyrically borrowed scenery, allegorical reason, borrowed things to speak. The expression of oil poetry is basically straight to the chest, to tell the truth, what is said, let people understand it at a glance. Focus on fun and slang.
We see that the earliest poem that appeared in the Tang Dynasty Zhang Dayou wrote a poem "Yongxue", and it is said that the "oil poem" is also derived from the name of this Zhang Dayou:
On the river a general,
Inoue Black Cave,
Yellow dog is white,
The white dog is swollen.
In fact, this oil poem still has a certain degree of artistry. The whole article writes snow, but there is not a single word of snow, and because of this, this poem makes Zhang Dayou amazing. In the Tang Dynasty, a high official went to worship the ancestral hall, and there was a poem on the wall of the main hall:
Nine days of snow fluttering in the clouds,
Just like the jade girl under Qiong Yao,
One day it will be sunny,
Make a broom make a broom,
The shovel of the shovel.
When the high official saw this, he was furious and ordered the arrest of the poet. The subordinates caught Zhang Dayou, who usually liked to do such poems, and in order to confirm whether it was written by him, they asked him to write a poem on the spot. At that time, it was the An Shi Rebellion, and An Lushan's soldiers trapped Nanyang, and Zhang Dayou exited:
A million thieves trapped Nanyang,
There is no rescue and no food,
One day the city will be destroyed,
Crying Daddy's Crying Daddy,
Crying Lady's Weeping Lady.
This big official was amused by Zhang Dayou, so he did not pursue Zhang Dayou. As soon as this incident came out, Zhang Dayou became famous from now on, and the story was passed down for thousands of years. Zhang Dayou also founded an independent style of poetry. This kind of poetry can be included in the anthology of poetry, and can be recognized and confirmed, which can be seen to have a certain status. Therefore, the so-called oil poetry is not useless, it has the value and rationality of its existence.
In summary, it is not difficult for us to see that if we want to write any style of poetry, we must grasp the characteristics of poetry to write. To make the poem have the style of oil poetry, of course, write according to the routine of oil poetry. If you want to get your poems out of the taste of oil poetry, more elegant and profound, more literary, you must avoid the characteristics of oil poetry.
First, avoid using colloquialisms and colloquialisms. The chinese language vocabulary is extremely rich, as long as you carefully ponder and refine, you will not be able to find accurate and vivid vocabulary. Although there are some poems in ancient poetry that are more colloquial, they are also called good poems, but there are not many such poems, and this colloquial language has also been carefully refined and transformed. Non-ordinary skills and cultivation can master the balance of this. Moreover, some things of the ancients, we must also dialectically look at the study of absorption.
The second is to avoid using dialects and local languages. The language of writing ancient poetry should be popular, but this popular means that the meaning of the word is popular, not the use of words, but to make these languages literary and artistic. In the meta-song, a large number of dialect sayings have been absorbed, of course, after the author's in-depth processing and refining, it is not simply quoted and used.
Three taboo slogans and idioms. Now there is an "old stem body", the so-called body is a kind of empty slogan more, more social buzzwords. This type of language cannot be used to write ancient poetry. In addition, idioms can not be used, Chinese idioms are extremely rich, there are many idioms with good ideas and artistic conceptions, but can not be used, to learn to be flexible, so that it is poetic. Such as the wind and the sun, the variable "light wind and bright sun", the ten thousand horses galloping variable "galloping horses tengyun", etc., can be slowly summarized when writing.
The fourth is to avoid rhyme. In the near-body poem, except for the first sentence that rhymes with the second sentence, the other three, five, and seven sentences cannot rhyme. This is the basic requirement for rhyming in near-body poetry. However, in words or songs, some songs can rhyme sentence by sentence, which is directly related to the function of "songwriting" singing and its musical utility, which is the same as our current lyrics. However, near-body poems or ancient poems, except for the rhyme of the first sentence, cannot appear consecutive rhymes.
The above is a brief analysis of "oil poetry" and ancient poetry, throwing bricks and leading jade to make a discussion, inaccurate criticism and correction, can be further improved and summarized.
