Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue. The evening breeze blows the flute, and the sunset is beyond the mountain. Horizon, a corner of the sea, intimate friends are half scattered. A bottle of turbid wine can make me happy, and I will leave you more tonight. Outside the pavilion, beside the ancient road, the grass is blue. When will you come here? Don't hesitate to come. Horizon, a corner of the sea, intimate friends are half scattered. Life is a rare gathering, only a lot of separation! This is a famous campus song "Farewell", which was very popular in the 1920s and 1930s. It was written by Mr. Li Shutong, a famous music educator during the May 4th Movement, about 19 10 years ago. This is a new song written by American J.P. Oatway. Li Shutong, a master of Hongyi, became a monk in Hupaoquan on 19 18. This song "Farewell" was almost unknown in the intellectual circles before liberation, and it was a household name in Jiangnan generation. For decades, thousands of middle school and university students sang this song to bid farewell to their alma mater and teachers and go to society. Some of them are theme songs of movies, such as Early Spring in February, and the Japanese movie Ah, Night Wheat Ridge! 》; Li Shutong's Farewell is the theme song of Old Events in the South of the City, which won the International Golden Eagle Award in 1980s. Adding infinite poetry to the film. Why is such a simple short song so charming, almost unlimited by time, infecting generation after generation? First of all, when the author wrote this lyric, he borrowed, studied and inherited the essence of China's traditional culture, and learned it by taking it to the next level. If you pay attention, you will find that Li Shutong's creation of this song is influenced by The West Chamber and A Farewell to the Pavilion, both in terms of words and artistic conception. We might as well quote the relevant passages in The West Chamber as follows: [Gong Zheng] [Correct and Good] The blue sky and yellow flowers are close to the west wind. The geese fly south. Who is drunk in Xiao Lai's frost forest? Always in tears. [Rolling hydrangea] I hate being late with you, but I hate being sick. It is difficult to tie a willow with a long jade, but hate it in the forest. The horse limped and the car followed quickly, but he told Acacia to avoid it and left early. Hearing the word go away, Jinchuan was released. Seeing the Shili Pavilion in the distance, my muscles dropped: Who knows this hatred? [Sifang Jing] In an instant, the cups and plates are chaotic, the cars are thrown east, the horses are thrown west, the two sides are falling, and the setting sun is green. Do you know where he is staying tonight? It's hard to find in dreams. Who does this sorrow appeal to? Acacia is only known to oneself, and God doesn't care if people are haggard. Tears add nine twists to the Yellow River, and I hate the three peaks and the low Hua Yue. In the evening, leaning against the West Building, I saw some ancient sunset roads, and the old willow three evil spirits laughed and cried and returned alone. If I return to Luotai, I will stay in embroidered spring last night and have a cold dream tonight. Don't miss you unintentionally. When you see the saddle on, you can't help frowning and crying. The green hills are separated from each other, and the sparse forests are not beautiful, and the smoke is covered. The ancient sunset road is silent, and the autumn wind listens to Ma Si. Why am I lazy to get on the bus? I came in a hurry. Why is it too late after I go? 【 End 】 In the surrounding mountains, a whip is still shining. How can you afford these cars all over the world? As long as you compare them a little, you can find that there are many similarities between them. It's just that Li's lyrics promote and expand the content of The West Chamber to students' farewell to friends, teachers and alma mater, and then extend to their thinking about life, nature, universe and time. Didn't you say that you should inherit traditional culture? This is a typical example of inheritance! The second and most important point is that the author abandons political preaching in his creation, but makes a fuss about human nature. Politics is limited by time and class and cannot be as eternal as human nature. Enthusiastic people just leave, and Parting made a big fuss about it, and wrote a special article Parting, which is not surprising, because this Parting is something that human beings often encounter, which touches the most sensitive feelings of human beings and the most sensitive nerves of human nature. Through this "parting", people often think about many important issues between life and time, time and space, man and nature, and between people. The eternity of the universe and the shortness of life, the changes of the times and the scars of human feelings evoke the sense of vicissitudes of life, which is unforgettable. Literary and artistic works will become immortal works if they can accurately reflect the characteristics and requirements of human nature at this time. From this, I thought of some poems I usually read online. One of their fundamental defects is "fear of coining new words". In order to make their poems strongly political and show that the author is "concerned about the country and the people", they often add political color to their poems, thus making their poems a "slogan slogan" in another situation, which is dry and lifeless. Literature is not politics, and writers are not politicians. If you don't understand politics and stick to politics, it is inevitable that there will be works that are neither fish nor fowl. Influenced by modern critics, the authors all want to be "unrestrained" poets like Xin Qiji, but they don't have the life practice of blood and fire like other great poets. They think that they are "free" in this way, which is different from ordinary small literati, but they have made a big taboo in their creation. The common characteristics of these works are no image, no plot and no artistic conception. I thought it was good at first, but I didn't remember it after reading it You can't get anything from such works except Big and Crazy. They are the same, just like "machine poems" written by computer programs. In such works, human nature, the essential attribute of human beings, has almost been eroded away. How can we impress people? Engels said in his letter to Mrs. Harkness that the more concealed the author's political motives, the better. The writer's position is expressed through the true representation of life. It can be seen that Marxism has always opposed "slogan" literature. The life of literature is real. Once you play with your imagination, the life of literature will end. Even revolutionary propaganda can't be played in vain. Once propaganda becomes "propaganda", it loses its practical significance. Historically, at the beginning of every revolutionary class, his slogan moved people's hearts only because it had to tell the truth at that time, and people understood it as soon as they heard it; When propaganda becomes "mandarin" that people can't understand, it is farther and farther away from the requirements of human nature. At this time, literature and propaganda are just "talking to themselves".
