This poetry appreciation book for the general public hopes to lead readers to understand the artistic characteristics of classical literature, and its main purpose is to guide and help readers learn to analyze and appreciate works. This book selects hundreds of classical poems and provides a detailed analysis of each poem. From the perspective of the author, these hundreds of classical poems include some famous poets in the past two thousand years from the "Book of Songs" and "Chu Ci" to the "May 4th" period; from the perspective of the genre of works, they include the Shijing style, Chu Ci style, Yuefu style, five- and seven-character ancient poems (including song lines), five- and seven-character modern poems (rhymed poems and quatrains), from five-character quatrains of as short as 20 words, to The 1,700-word ancient five-character poems can be said to include various genres and characteristics of ancient poems. In terms of poetry style, there are lyrical, narrative, praising, and ironic styles. There are Tang sounds that win with rhyme and full of vivid imagery, Song tunes that win with meaning but are raw and thin, some Tao poems that win with artistic conception, and some Li poems that are hazy. Each has its own unique creation and contribution. I believe that through the training of interpretation of more than 100 poems, the level of understanding and interpretation of ancient poetry will be further improved, and the ability to appreciate the artistic creation of ancient poetry will be greatly improved, which will take a big step towards understanding classical poetry. This book organizes the selected poems into groups according to themes or styles so that readers can compare and speculate.
