On the Aesthetic Image of the Moon in Dream Shadow
Abstract: In A Dream Shadow, Juck Zhang skillfully used various images to express his aesthetic experience. Including flowers, the moon, butterflies and so on, this paper selects "the moon" as the research object. By analyzing the image of the "moon" and comparing it with the moon written by other poets, we can get the unique aesthetic characteristics of the moon in Zhang Chao's Dream Shadow.

Keywords: comparison and enlightenment of the natural beauty of the moon

In the shadow of a dream, the titles of the images of the moon are: first, seventh, second, second, eighth, second, third, sixth, first, fourth, fourth, ninth, first, first, first and eighth. In these twelve poems, the moon mostly appears with other images, such as flowers, wine and beauty. These images are closely related to aesthetics and life, but rarely appear alone. As can be seen from the article, there are descriptions of seeing beautiful scenery under the moon in 28 articles; On the second day and the ninth day, there is the color of the moon and the fragrance of flowers; The eighth and second are listening to the piano in Panasonic, listening to the flute under the moon and so on. From this, we can easily find that the moon matches some elegant things, such as flowers, beautiful women and flutes ... After mutual collocation and association, it is a beautiful painting, giving people a visual feeling, just like Zhu Ziqing's Moonlight on the Lotus Pond. Although the poem in A Dream Shadow is relatively short, the composition elements are complete. It depicts a kind of life interest. Next, it will be discussed from three aspects: the application of the moon image in classical literature, the relationship between the characteristics of the moon and natural beauty in Dream Shadow, the application of the moon image by scholars in previous dynasties and the comparison of the moon in Dream Shadow by Zhang Chao.

The Application of Moon Image in Classical Literature

There are several uses of the moon image in classical literature. First, the moon has natural properties, and poets often regard it as the object of appreciation and chanting, giving people a sense of tranquility and leisure. Secondly, there is only one bright moon in the sky, and there are few stars on the moon, which gives people a unique sense of desolation and loneliness, so they express their loneliness and anguish through the moon; Third: "I hope that people will be long-lasting, and the moon will be the same, which will become the spiritual bond between the two places, so as to express the love of acacia:" When the moon is sad, the west wind will gradually spread to the east "; The full moon is cloudy and sunny, which means the natural philosophy of separation and integration and the passage of time. Fourth, the light of the moon is cold, with the characteristics of purity and cleanliness, and often becomes a symbol of nobility and refinement. Next, it will be elaborated through specific cases and related aesthetic principles.

We are familiar with "the moonlight in the pine forest, the crystal stone in the stream" and "the bright moon rises from the mountains in the sky and is in the infinite mist of the sea of clouds"; The former is a quiet and leisurely night, creating a fresh moonlight scene, while the latter gives people a grand feeling, and the sea of clouds is vast and magnificent. In the eyes of literati, the moon can be expressed by "scenery". This is a manifestation of natural beauty. The discovery, appreciation and life of natural beauty are inseparable from the mind, soul and spirit. [1] This is Zong Baihua's summary of natural beauty extracted from Mr. Ye Lang's aesthetic principles. I think it covers three aspects: first, superficial beauty, superficial external appreciation; Second, the feeling of the soul has risen to the inner level; Finally, the spirit, which is also the highest realm. Although the scene is a scene, it can melt feelings. "On the willow shoots, people meet after dusk" and "He knows that the dew will frost tonight, and the moonlight at home will be bright!" Inject their thoughts into the moon, heartless and affectionate. In Li Yu's Ying Huan, the moon is like a hook, and it should be a new moon. In The Magpie Treading on the Moon by Feng Yansi in the Five Dynasties, the waning moon is still curved, and the jade harp and tears play, which is the waning moon. There is such a sentence in the commentary on "Magpie Tread" in "Legend on Earth": "Build a lonely and quiet environment to set off the sadness of thinking about women sleepless." [2] Hui Huan is accompanied by images such as West Building, loneliness and deep courtyard. * * * creates a sad artistic conception, and the waning moon is enough to cover it in "The Magpie Treads on the Moon". In the aesthetic principle, there is a conclusion that "natural beauty appears as the living environment of human beings". [3] I quite agree with this view, because as a literary work, it is more intuitive to contact the scene first and then tolerate the scene. Landscape is a natural phenomenon, and it is also the living environment now.

In conveying lovesickness, Na Yue is absolutely indispensable among many images. In June, you can go beyond the boundaries of time and space, cross Qian Shan, and bring your lovesickness to your friends. "I am worried about the bright moon, and I am going with the wind." "I hope people will last a long time, and I will be beautiful for thousands of miles." "The moon is full now, and the end of the world is * * *". About homesick poems, we can find that there will be a bright moon. People have joys and sorrows, and the moon has ups and downs. When the moon is bright, it is not only bright but also round, which means reunion. This is given by people's subjective consciousness, and in fact it is also people's direct aesthetic feeling. "As an aesthetic subject, people are historical and cultural. The history, culture and knowledge deposited in his heart will inevitably play a role in aesthetic activities. " [4] "Some features of natural beauty can also be similar to people's personality". [5] The moon is clear and pure, and the dust is removed. Li Bai's pursuit of ideals can be seen from his poem "Fear of evil, be happy and think of flying, want to go to the sky and embrace the bright moon"; "Vast as the wind in Feng Xu, I don't know what it is; Flying like independence from the world, feathering into immortality "gives people a sense of otherness." "The above poems have analyzed the aesthetic significance of the ancients to the moon image. As an image, the moon has many aesthetic characteristics and ideological sustenance. In my opinion, the concentrated expression of China's traditional moon image is to write out the present scene, describe the present heart and what he thinks, and convey the feelings in his chest.

The Moon Features and Aesthetic Features in Juck Zhang's Dream Shadow

"Tolstoy said that it is not because of beauty that it is cute, but because it is cute. That is to say, when the beautiful things in life arouse people's aesthetic feeling with their "appearance", people gradually have the same aesthetic feeling for similar things. What people like, what is pleasing to the eye and what arouses people's spirit becomes a kind of beauty. " [6] In my opinion, the moon in the dream shadow can be summarized into three words, namely, matter, rhyme and spirit. Things are real things, visible things. Rhyme is verve, which is the emotion produced by seeing the scenery and combining thoughts. God has been deeply rooted in the author's heart and is everywhere with life. Next I will analyze the image of the moon in my nightmare from these three aspects.

The first is the level of things. There is a saying in the Erjiu Law: "The light of mountains, the sound of water, the color of the moon and the fragrance of flowers" [7] The light of mountains, the sound of the moon and the fragrance of flowers fascinate people with mountains, water, the moon and flowers as aesthetic objects. Here, perceptual quality, light, color, sound and other uncomfortable substances are inherent and become subjective things. [8] Article 127: "The moon can be a lamp, but the lamp cannot be the same month" [9] This is because the brightness of the moon may be equivalent to that of the lamp, but the lamp does not have the quality of the moon and unique aesthetic characteristics. This is the embodiment of the moon image in the shadow of a dream on the material level.

Followed by rhyme. You can feel the charm of the moon by reading Shadow of Dreams. Why is there such a collocation and arrangement in the 82 law that "Panasonic listens to the piano and listens to the flute under the moon"? Among the traditional Chinese musical instruments, Qin belongs to elegance, while pine gives people the feeling of nobility. Elegant music is better with noble pine. The moonlight is slightly cold and the flute is slightly sad. They have the same characteristics and can be perfectly integrated together, thus creating a beautiful artistic conception. See also item 28: "Look at the mountains upstairs, the snow at the head of the city, the moon in front of the lights, and the sunset on the boat." [10] Any landscape will show different charms from different angles. Looking at Lushan Mountain from the front and side of peaks and valleys, from far, near, high and low places, Lushan Mountain presents various faces. This is an aesthetic practice developed from the uniqueness of Juck Zhang's perspective, and this charm can be felt more in it.

Finally, it is God. In my opinion, the god of poetry lies in things other than words and scenery, while the god of aesthetic life is something that integrates aesthetic activities into every corner of life and can be described by language. Article 186 stipulates that "the shadow in the mirror is also drawn with a hook; The shadow under the moon has no bones to draw. "[1 1] In daily life, maybe we don't regard the scenery in the mirror as a painting, but in Juck Zhang's eyes, the painting in the mirror is a figure painting. Shadow is a figure painting without a skeleton. There is a sense of beauty everywhere, paying attention to observation and grasping the characteristics of different things from different angles. Article 188 stipulates, "If there is no beauty, the flowers and the moon are white. "Take flowers and the moon to set off a beautiful woman. The association caused by Juck Zhang's touching the scene endows the surrounding scenery with corresponding emotions, and all scenery words are sentimental words. The moon in the dream shadow is analyzed from three angles: object, rhyme and spirit. In my opinion, the moon is a beautiful woman's companion, the light in the painting, the ability to eliminate troubles, the noble and lonely quality, the fun to watch and so on. It is Juck Zhang's empathy and the joy of life.

Comparison between the use of moon images by literati in past dynasties and the moon in Zhang Chao's Dream Shadow

Next, we use the moon image in Shadow of a Dream to compare it with that in other poets' poems.

Instead of finding out their similarities and differences.

In my opinion, Su Shi's night tour of Chengtian Temple is "like a water court, with algae and grass interlaced and bamboo and cypress shaded." What night is there no moonlight? Where is there no bamboo and cypress? But there are few idle people like my ears. "There are similarities with 186' s Nightmare Shadow. A person is the shadow of bamboo and cypress, and a person is a figure. Both are products of moonlight, and both of them pay attention. Su Shi described the scene at that time, but failed to relate it to the things around him. However, Juck Zhang had such an association. This shows that the influence of association and aesthetic consciousness on people is subtle. When studying the contrast between Shadow of Dreams and other poems, I saw more differences. However, due to the different creative consciousness, Moonlight describes the moon more from life, while other poems take the moon as a lyric object. Next, I will analyze it from specific examples.

In traditional poetry, Bede is a very important existence. The meaning of Bide is defined in the Encyclopedia of Aesthetics edited by Mr. Li Zehou: "Bide is a natural beauty that appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. The beauty of natural objects lies in that they can be compared with aesthetic subjects, that is, they feel or mean the beauty of personality. " The practical significance of [12] is that "the beauty and value of natural things are due to certain moral sentiments of people and the value of moral sentiments attached to them." [13] Therefore, the moral value of the moon is related to the moral pursuit of people who write about the moon. Such as noble quality, noble spirit and so on. They regard the moon as a symbol of nobility, such as "the sky is high and the clouds are pale and the moon is white, and seagulls know it when it is calm." At this time, the poet's mood is indifferent and far-reaching, fresh and refined. But in Wang Changling's works, the moon has another kind of general scenery, which Juck Zhang can't reach. Wang Changling is a frontier poet, and the frontier moon is the witness of history and war. "Join the Army" (Part II) "Don't worry enough, the autumn moon shines on the Great Wall". "The moon is still the image of parting between friends. The autumn moon in "Going from the Army" (Part II) is much more profound than other poems in terms of image content, image combination and placement. " [ 14]

Li Bai, regarded as a poet in the Tang and Song Dynasties, has a bohemian but elegant writing style. "Until, holding up my cup, I asked the bright moon to bring me my shadow and let us become three people". "The banquet for three in the moonlight is beautiful. Even though the bright moon can't know the poet's pleasure in drinking, there is still a bright and dry mind in the poet's heart, and the image of the bright moon in this poem becomes more lofty and quiet." [15] The moon not only embodies the extension of time, but also represents the expansion of space; It not only contains a cultural aesthetic taste, but also embodies a profound humanistic concern; It not only pursues a surreal existence, but also contains the history and destiny of mankind. [ 16]

In the process of reading "Nightmare Shadow", I can feel Juck Zhang's rich life breath and elegant life sentiment. When Juck Zhang wrote about the moon, he mostly used its characteristics. Others describe and express their feelings with the different "personalities" of the moon in different periods. However, in the poems of various poets, it is not difficult to see that the scenery is emotional because of loveliness and beautiful because of beauty, rather than the aesthetic thought of loveliness because of beauty. In a dream, the aesthetic image of the moon comes from life and returns to life. It covers the moon in three levels: material, rhyme and spirit, and also includes that Juck Zhang's aesthetics is life.
