Extended data:

First, the creative background:

The Zhou Dynasty was founded by Wen and Wu, and it was successful and prosperous. After Zhao and Mu, the national situation gradually declined. Later, Li was expelled, you Wang was killed, Ping Wang moved to the east, and entered the Spring and Autumn Period.

During the Spring and Autumn Period, the royal family declined, princes merged, barbarians invaded, and society was in turmoil. In the Zhou Dynasty, there was an official who collected poems. Every spring, he shakes Mu Duo to collect folk songs and puts on works that can reflect people's happiness and sufferings.

After sorting it out, give it to the Taishi (the official in charge of music) to compose music and sing it to the emperor as a reference for administration. The Book of Songs, which reflects the social life from the early Zhou Dynasty to the mid-Spring and Autumn Period, is an image reflection of China's social life during these 500 years, including the ancestor's ode to entrepreneurship and the movement of offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods;

There are also banquet exchanges between nobles and resentment against uneven work and rest; There are also touching chapters reflecting labor, hunting and a lot of love, marriage and social customs.

Second, the work appreciation:

This poem can be regarded as a model to show the virtues of husband and wife, mainly because of these characteristics: first, the love it writes has a clear marriage purpose from the beginning, and finally comes down to the happiness of marriage, rather than a short encounter or a temporary passion between young men and women.

This kind of love, which clearly points to marriage and shows responsibility, is more recognized by society. Secondly, it describes both men and women as "gentlemen" and "ladies", indicating that this is a combination associated with virtue.

"Gentleman" has both status and virtue, while "My Fair Lady" also means beauty in appearance and goodness in virtue. The combination of "gentleman" and "lady" here represents an ideal of marriage.

Third, it is the restraint of love behavior written in poetry. After careful reading, it can be noted that although this poem is about the man's pursuit of the woman, it does not involve direct contact between the two sides at all.

Of course, the "lady" didn't move, and the "gentleman" was just "tossing and turning" there alone. Things like climbing walls and breaking willows didn't seem to be thought of at all, and love was very disciplined.

This kind of love is not only true affection (which is very important for love poems), but also shows peace and moderation, which will not be too intense for readers.

All these characteristics are probably related to the fact that this poem was originally a noble wedding song. On that occasion, an atmosphere of restraint and joy commensurate with the status of the host is needed.

Confucius saw a kind of beauty of neutralization with wide significance, which advocated his attitude towards life of self-denial and self-respect, and attached importance to moral cultivation. Preface to Mao Poetry promoted it as a moral textbook that can "make the world right". The perspectives of the two are somewhat different, but there are still fundamental similarities.
