The appearance of late autumn in people's minds is lofty, quiet, simple, and quiet. But sometimes late autumn seems to become a depressed, snubbed, desolate image in people's minds. This is that different states of mind will react differently to the same landscape and come up with different images.
Ma Zhiyuan and Bai Pu of the Yuan Dynasty are both characters in the four great masters of the Yuan Qu, and the interesting thing is that they face the background of the autumn evening, both of which are "Autumn Thoughts" and "Autumn" written under the name of "Tianjingsha", and their emotional colors and theme ideas are completely different.
Ma Zhiyuan and Bai Pu, their works are as follows:
Tianjing Sand. Autumn thoughts
(Yuan) Ma Zhiyuan
Dead vines and old trees are dim, small bridges and flowing water people's homes, and the ancient road west wind is thin horses. As the sun sets, the broken intestines are at the end of the world.
Tianjing Sand. autumn
(Yuan) Bai Pu
The lonely village is remnants of the sun, the light smoke of the old trees is cold and elegant, and a little feihong shadow. Green mountains and green water, white grass, red leaves and yellow flowers.
First, the similarities between these two songs
These two scattered songs are both written about autumn scenes; they are all in the form of white paintings, stringing multiple objects and images into sentences, sound and color, moving and static, and scenery and feelings; using scenery to dye feelings, set off the atmosphere, allegorize the scene, and get the imagery and feelings that the author wants to express.
Second, the differences between these two songs
Ma Zhiyuan's "Tianjing Sand. "Autumn Thoughts" is mainly "suppressed", and the tone is gray and low, low and desolate, but there are also idyllic situations in the text, such as "small bridges and flowing water people's homes". And Bai Pu's "Tianjing Sand. "Autumn" is mainly "Yang", and the tone is relaxed and lively, but it also has low colors, such as "Sunset remnants of an isolated village".
In addition, Ma Zhiyuan's "Autumn Thoughts" is preceded by "white painting", and the last sentence "Broken Intestines in Tianya" is "complaint" and "thought", with a sad mood, expressing the thoughts and feelings of a wanderer who is drifting in the autumn and misses his hometown, and is tired of wandering, lonely and desolate.
And Bai Pu's "Autumn" is all about using white painting techniques to list objects and images, set off the environment, and string together the isolated village, sunset, remnants, Feihong, mountains and rivers, and leaves to form a magnificent landscape painting, expressing the author's leisurely and self-satisfied, relaxed and pleasant thoughts and feelings at that time.
Combining the similarities and differences above, in terms of the characteristics of his writing, namely the tone of his writing, the central theme, and the appeal of art, Ma Zhiyuan's "Tianjing Sand. The influence of "Autumn Thoughts" is far greater than that of Bai Pu's "Tianjing Sand. Autumn". Ma Zhiyuan's yuan song is popular among the population, widely recited, and deeply loved by the majority of readers. However, Bai Pu's song is more suitable for primary school, middle and senior students to read outside the classroom.
