Abstract: During the Southern Song Dynasty, the style of ci became more and more respected, and the Song people began to consciously select and compile ci anthologies. There are five kinds of anthologies of Song Ci, but among them, the "first poet" with the largest number of ci works is not consistent. This paper attempts to analyze this difference phenomenon and try to give a reasonable explanation.
Key words: selected works of Song Ci by Song examinees; The first poet; variation analysis
During the Southern Song Dynasty, ci became more and more respected, and to some extent, it got rid of the shackles of music, and gradually developed into an independent style that was talked about from emperors to generals to peddlers and pawns, occupying a dominant position in the literature of the Song Dynasty. Under this cultural background, Song people began to compile selected books consciously to preserve people's history and set an example for the present and the afterlife. There are eight anthologies that have been handed down to this day, among which "Meiyuan" by Huang Daxing is a masterpiece of ci, "Fang Quan Beizu" by Chen Yong is a masterpiece of flower ci, and "Yuefu Buti" by Song adherents is a masterpiece of object ci. Because the selection of these three anthologies is too simple, it is not convenient to study the development and evolution of Song Ci. In chronological order, they are Yao Zeng's Yuefu Ya Ci, Huaping Ci, He Shixin's Caotang Poetry, Zhao's Chun Xue and Miaohao Ci.
First of all, it gives a detailed overview of the five-part The First Poet.
These five anthologies were all compiled by Song people in the context of gradually advocating the style of ci in the Southern Song Dynasty. The number of the first poets in each anthology is different, as follows.
In Yuefu Elegant Ci, * * * selected 34 poets and wrote 756 lyrics. Ouyang Xiu was selected as the "First Poet" with 73 poems. What needs to be added is that, because the research object of this paper is Song Ci, the pronouns of Tang and Wu chosen by the Song people or the ci works originally written with Tang and Wu pronouns but mistakenly entered the names of the Song people are not included in the statistics. Ouyang Xiu selected 83 poems in Selected Works, but according to the textual research of Song Ci, * * * has 10 poems written by pronouns of Tang and Five Dynasties, so when doing statistics, Ouyang Xiu actually selected 73 poems.
Selected Poems of Huaheng, written by 196, with lyrics 1 164. In statistics, Song Ci is still the research object, excluding Tang Ci and the first ten volumes of Ci. Among them, Xin Qiji's and Liu Kezhuang's ci were selected the most. They are all 42 songs. Ranked as "the first poet".
Poems of Caotang, selected by * * * 103, with 292 lyrics. Traditionally, the ci works of Tang and Five Dynasties and Anonymous are not included in the statistics. Among them, Zhou Bangyan's ci was selected the most, with 46 * *, being the "first ci poet".
"Chun Xue", * * * selected 230 lyricists and wrote 637 lyrics. Traditionally, the works of Wu Ji, Cai Songnian and anonymous poets in Jin and Yuan Dynasties are not included in the statistics. Among them, Zhou Bangyan's ci was selected the most, with 20 * *, and he was the "first ci poet".
Wonderful words, with * * selected 132 lyricist. There are 382 words. Traditionally, Cai Songnian, a poet in Jin and Yuan Dynasties, is not included in the statistics. Among them, there are 22 selected ci poems, which are the "first ci poets".
Second, the analysis of the differences in the selection of "the first poet" in five words.
(1) Ouyang Xiu is the "first poet" of Yuefu elegant ci.
First, it is closely related to the editor's criteria for choosing elegant poems. In his Preface to Yuefuya, he clearly pointed out that "there are many families, and it is difficult to tell the good from the bad. If it involves banter, go." The world-famous Yuefu Elegant Ci. This tendency to worship elegance requires him to recommend a master who creates elegant words as a model for learning. In addition, the focus of the anthology is in the ci circle of the Northern Song Dynasty, and Ouyang Xiu naturally becomes the best target of the standard, that is, "Ou Gong's generation is romantic and pretentious. The word is young and subtle, and the world is proud. " Those with the most selected works are naturally selected.
Secondly, the compiling intention of Yuefu's elegant ci is to worship elegance and oppose vulgarity. The editor once understood that Yi Xi countered the bad atmosphere of debauchery and corruption in the ci world at that time through his own ci collection, and standardized and guided the ci style to return to elegant culture. Taking Ouyang Xiu as a model for the creation and research of refined and popular ci, on the one hand, it can strongly refute the creative tendency of lascivious and popular ci at that time and cheer for reviving the upward trend of refined and popular ci; On the other hand, it can guide the style of ci poetry to break away from the narrow field of child's play and develop in a broader and more elegant direction containing the real social content, so as to fit in with the atmosphere of the times at the beginning of the southern crossing to recover the mountains and restore the national prestige.
(2) Exploring the reasons why Xin Qiji and Liu Kezhuang tied Hua Heng's Selected Poems as the "First Poet".
Selected Poems of Huaping is an anthology aimed at preserving a complete history of pronouns, and the editor Huang Sheng has a clear intention to preserve history. He hopes to save the people to the greatest extent through the compilation of Selected Poems. Only in this way can we truly reproduce the general situation of the development of ci history. Preserve a complete history of ci for a generation. On the one hand, only 5.94 words were selected per capita (65,438+096 poets and 65,438+065,438+064 poets), and many little-known words were kept. On the other hand, when Hu wrote the preface to Selected Poems of Huaheng, he also clearly pointed out that "when the melody is played together, it is precious in the world, which makes people get a compilation." You can see the wonders of the cishi family. "Xin Qiji and Liu Kezhuang are tied as" the first poets ",which are embodied as follows:
