Culture knows no borders, as long as the blood of the Chinese nation flows, the spirit emitted by the Lantern Festival is rooted in the hearts of every Chinese. On this day, people gather and enjoy it, exuding the profound heritage of Chinese civilization and the complex national spirit of enthusiasm and unrestrainedness. Like the Spring Festival, on the day of the Lantern Festival when the Moon is empty, the ancients are full of poetry and romance, and are often connected with love. Today, we enjoy ten poems about the Lantern Festival together and feel the feelings of the ancients.
Appreciating the lanterns is what the ancients of the Lantern Festival must do, during the Tang Dynasty, the cultural prosperity was unprecedented, and the lantern market during the Lantern Festival was grand in scale. On the day of the Lantern Festival, the literati and inkers will write poems about viewing the lanterns, and the poets will write about the joyful and enthusiastic scenes. In the Song Dynasty, the scale of the lamp market was even more spectacular, and the literati led by Su Dongpo, Fan Chengda, and Xin Shuyi showed the grandeur of the Lantern Festival of the Song Dynasty, leaving many beautiful poems that have been recited through the ages for future generations. The Ming Dynasty lantern market was more extravagant, the Lantern Festival was increased from three days to ten days, and the poets led by Tang Bohu were vassals of elegance, rendering the Lantern Festival into a very psychedelic festival. In the Qing Dynasty, in addition to putting lights, there were also torches, fireballs and other activities, and the festival atmosphere was more vivid and exciting.
According to records, during the Two Song Dynasties, people's enthusiasm for the Lantern Festival surpassed that of the previous generation, and the rise of civic culture entered a prosperous period, thus providing a rich "soil" for literary creation. Due to the particularity of the times, the Song Dynasty emphasized literature over martial arts, the scribes were treated preferentially, the economy prospered, and the court attached great importance to the Lantern Festival, and many poems of the Song Dynasty literati more reflected the psychology of seeking happiness. Of course, there are also a few sensitive poets who perceive the brevity of life behind the joy, causing concerns about the future, and also enriching the Lantern Festival poetry on the spiritual level and life consciousness.
Since the beginning of the Song and Jin wars, decades of war, survivors to the north and south, the living conditions are extremely poor, the social population withered, in this case, the poets in the special era more poetry reflects the turmoil of the times, and the things are not human, recalling the scenes of the people's joy at the Lantern Festival, can't help but burst out of the heart. In addition, the feeling of wandering makes the poet miss his hometown, especially in the Lantern Festival and the festival of family reunion, it is even more worrying. Of course, poets will also express their concerns about the fortunes of the country and sympathy for the sufferings of the people during the Lantern Festival, which are all spawned in the context of the times and have special significance.
In the past, the Lantern Festival was a festival with strong romantic colors, and the ancients often associated the festival with love. Because in ancient times, young girls in traditional society were not allowed to go out to freely move, and the Lantern Festival gave them the opportunity to go out to admire the lights, so the Lantern Festival became an opportunity for them to socialize, and unmarried men and women met each other when viewing the lights, fell in love at first sight, paired up, and gradually developed into aesthetic love. In the poetry of the ancients, it will also record the scene of enjoying the lanterns and the happy marriage in the Lantern Festival, and the poet will highlight the love in the poem in the case of rendering the festive atmosphere, so that the poem will have more social significance and practical significance.
Lantern Festival must eat the Lantern Festival, Fu once described the sweet and delicious Lantern in the "Shangyuan Bamboo Branch Words", reading the text makes people feel the warm scene given to people by the festival. How can the Lantern Festival not have fine wine, the great talent Tang Yin wrote in the poem "Lantern", such an auspicious day, not drinking is a waste of a beautiful festive atmosphere. Beautiful scenery with beauty, in the pen of the ancients, sweet encounter, telling true love; there are also ways to miss each other's pains, and lament that life is as unsatisfactory as unsatisfactory as unsatisfactory love; and the cheerful laughter of beautiful girls adds luster to the festival.
