The origin of Dongpo cake
The style of Su Ci is both rigid and flexible, and it is colorful. His words, like his poems, tend to focus on meaning, so his style changes with the change of content characteristics and emotional tone. His words are gloomy, bold and unpretentious. As Chen Zhi said: "Reading his words, such as seeing people, landscapes, romantic figures, and Geng Jie's broad-minded feelings, is absolutely different from the daughter's modality of traditional words;" Reading his words can make you feel passionate and passionate, thus strongly attacking the heroic spirit of crossing the river to rejuvenate the country. You can also stay quietly in Dongli to plant chrysanthemums and live in vain. " Su Shi's innovation of ci style is not simply against graceful school, but to change the situation that graceful school dominates the ci world, make the ci style develop from centralization to diversification, and form the situation that graceful school, bold school, beautiful school, elegant school and broad-minded school are the same. He said in Suixian: "Jin is a relatively small word, although it has no taste of Liu." It is also a family ... quite spectacular. " The theory of "being a family" here is put forward according to the different "tastes" of Liu Yong's ci, and its connotation includes: pursuing magnificent style and broad artistic conception, expressing one's true temperament and unique life feelings. At the same time, it can be seen that Su Shi is quite conscious and self-conscious in creating a bold and unconstrained ci style other than graceful and authentic. In "Water Tune Song Tou" (when is the bright moon), the whole word is expressed by the exploration of enjoying the moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival, arousing imagination, seeking heaven, visiting immortals, thinking about the palace, writing jade and jade until the "full moon". It embodies the characteristics of Su Shi's bold and unconstrained ci, with superb brushwork and vigorous style, but it also has a kind of elegant and ethereal color, full of romanticism, which "makes people climb high and look far, raise their eyes and sing loudly, and escape from dust" (Hu Yin's Preface to Wine). The words on the film are all about scenery, because scenery is lyrical, because the moon and people. The darkness of reality makes the author want to leave reality and fantasize about wandering in the sky, but he can't forget reality. In the next part, he comforts himself with "dancing a shadow". From the moon to people, from people to feelings, the author loves the concept of life and misses the affection of his loved ones, which brings profound realism to his ci. "People have joys and sorrows, and the moon has ups and downs. This is an old problem." The author found the answer from natural phenomena, and his depressed mood was relieved by the enlightenment of natural phenomena. At the end of the word, "I hope people will live for a long time, thousands of miles away" expresses optimism and openness. In addition, the language is naturally fluent, especially the sentences in predecessors' poems and fu are widely used, reaching the level of no trace. Another example is Niannujiao's red cliff nostalgia. The first sentence of the word is "the river of no return, a romantic figure through the ages". The scenery and feelings are written in exclamatory syntax, with a broad realm and deep feelings, which are summarized and imposing. Then he wrote about rocks and stormy waves, which painted the ancient battlefield with great momentum and boldness, rendered the natural scenery of the ancient battlefield magnificent, and formed a strong environmental atmosphere for the appearance of ancient romantic figures. The next movie vividly depicts the scene of the Chibi War through the change from the scene to the ancient hero, while the detailed descriptions of "Xiao Qiao's first marriage", "the black silk scarf of the feather fan" and "the room talking and laughing" vividly and prominently depict the image of Zhou Lang's "heroic posture and heroic hair". The whole poem has a broad artistic conception and great momentum, and its style can be described as "bold" and "lofty", but it ends with a low tone of "life is like a dream", forming a bold and gloomy style. This is Su Shi's heartfelt work after being hit by Wutai poetry case, expressing his feelings that he has achieved nothing with the magnificent scenery of Chibi and the great achievements of historical heroes. Su Shi created a bold and unconstrained style of ci, but he was not only famous for his boldness. When he writes about love, the sad words are euphemistic and implicit, such as mourning (Jiangchengzi). The emotional connotation of this kind of words is thicker than that of the general words devoted to the love between men and women, and the writing is touching, delicate, dense and similar. Another example is Operator: "When the moon is absent, beginning of life is quiet. Who saw you alone? Fuzzy and lonely. At night, it suddenly becomes afraid, suddenly flies and comes back frequently, but no one always understands its infinite inner feelings. Lonely sandbar is cold. " The whole poem has created a lonely swan image, and pinned the author's lonely and confused mood and lonely and unyielding attitude after political setbacks. The writing is deep and clear, every image highlights the cold breath, and the whole word is covered with a thick layer of loneliness and sadness. Another example is Shui Long Yin (like a flower but not a flower), which sets off a woman's thinking in spring and the image of dancing Yang Shuhua, and renders a kind of sad mood layer by layer. It is very gentle and skillful. There are also some small words about daily chores or rural customs, which are fresh and simple, funny and relaxed, like the first song in Huanxisha: "Who cooks cocoons and smells like a village?" The fence is charming and the words are distorted. The drooping quinoa raised its eyes, smoothed the wheat, softened the hunger and asked when the bean leaves turned yellow. "The first three sentences, each sentence shows the characteristics of rural areas in early summer, as well as what the author saw and heard along the way. The first sentence consists of layers of lush leaves, which constitute the basic color of the early summer world. Warm and quiet, with lush crops set off the vitality of the countryside, two or three sentences to write the atmosphere and human feelings of the countryside. In the next film, the screenwriter visited the farmer's house as a satrap and inquired about Tian barbary, so he was kind and homely. The whole word exudes a strong flavor of life. In the second group of words, the village women embraced each other to see the gentleman, "seeing the gentleman in red makeup, stabbing the fence door in three, three, five and five, and wearing Siro skirts in rows", and also wrote the modality of the peasant women, which gave us a simple and natural beauty and added another color to the traditional word "powder women's world". Su Shi's innovative spirit of innovating ci style is not only reflected in the above three aspects, but also in the use of prefaces and postscripts, allusions and attitudes towards melody. Su Shi's pre-ci works are mostly written by the first-person narrator in response to the song, as long as the name of the word indicates the singing method, so there is no preface. Su Shi, on the other hand, turned Ci into a lyric expression based on emotion. Therefore, what kind of emotion words express, or what causes it, must be explained. However, Ci is good at lyricism and not suitable for narration. In order to solve this contradiction, Su Shi used a lot of inscriptions and suffixes in his ci, which made the inscriptions and suffixes organically unified with the shape of the ci. For example, "Jiangchengzi Mizhou Hunting" and "Niannujiao Chibi Nostalgia" are equivalent to adding a title to the tune; Water Tune (When is the bright moon) and Dingfengbo (Don't listen to the sound of beating leaves through the forest) are followed by a small preface. After Su Shi, most poets used preface as a routine to write lyrics. The extensive use of allusions in Ci also began with Su Shi. The use of allusions in ci is not only an alternative and centralized narrative way, but also a tortuous and profound lyric way. This way is not uncommon in poetry, but in ci, Su Shi is the first, and there are countless successors, especially Xin Qiji. For example, Su Ci "Hunting in Jiangchengzi Mizhou" uses Sun Quan to shoot tigers, Feng Tang to see Zhao Dian, and Xin Ci "Meeting forever, Jingkou Gubeiting Nostalgia" uses Sun Quan, Emperor Wu of Song, Liu Yilong and Lian Po Hall, all of which are examples of making good use of allusions. Su Shi wrote ci mainly for people to see, while Dont Ask For Help sang, so he paid attention to the freedom to express his feelings. Although he also abides by the range of words, he is often not bound by the range. Because of this, Su Shi's lyrics are fluent even if they are not harmonious occasionally. In this regard, later generations have different opinions. Wang Zhuo's "Lan Feng Man Zhi" said: "Mr. Dongpo is not addicted to temperament, but occasionally writes songs, pointing out that all the way up, the world is new and refreshing, so that the author can know the shock." In other words, strengthening the literariness of ci and weakening the dependence of ci on music were pointed out by Su Shi for later poets. Lu You said that Su Ci was "uninhibited and uninhibited, and did not like to cut it to conform to the rhythm", which clearly expressed his understanding of the prosodic characteristics of Su Ci. Li Qingzhao, on the other hand, is quite picky and thinks that Su Ci is "often out of tune". Although everyone sees it differently, they all say that Su Ci does not damage the charm by melody. This feature is undoubtedly progressive from the general trend of poetry development, at least understandable. To sum up, Su Shi has a special position and great contribution in the history of Ci. He expanded the realm of ci, changed the style of ci, and initiated a new stage of ci creation, especially the bold and unconstrained ci, which was different from the traditional graceful ci, which made the song ci take on a brand-new look and influenced the creation of many poets in later generations. Su Shi is a brilliant literary master in the history of China literature, and also a superstar in China.
