The Book of Songs, Humanities and History
The Book of Songs is the first collection of poems in China, with original poems of 3 1 1 and 305 existing poems. The ancients called it "Poetry" or "Poetry 300". It collected about 500 years' poems from the Western Zhou Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period, which were divided into three parts: style, elegance and ode. It fully reproduced the broad social life at that time, and truly reflected the historical features of China slave society from prosperity to decline.

The Book of Songs occupies an important position in China's cultural and literary history. On the one hand, it is one of the "Five Classics", shouldering the heavy responsibility of "learning from couples, loving the old and caring for the young, and educating and changing customs", and it is an important classic of Confucianism; On the other hand, it is the source of classical literature, which lays the foundation for poetry in terms of aesthetic pursuit, lyric style and sentence characteristics, and is the source of classical literature, thus forming the national characteristics of poetry art.

There are too many books to interpret the Book of Songs, and everyone has their own different thinking and interpretation angles.

Qu Limin, the author of this book, is a famous doctor among talented women and a literary expert in the medical field. She is an associate professor of medical university, a tutor for master students, and the president of the Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. He also holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Beijing Normal University and a Master of Medicine degree from Beijing University of Chinese Medicine.

Because of this identity, Qu Limin's interpretation of The Book of Songs has three characteristics. First, it is interspersed with medical and health knowledge, which is fresh, interesting and knowledgeable. Secondly, her interpretation of The Book of Songs is highly focused and can broaden people's thinking and horizons. Third, she can feel it from the heart, so what she said is very close to reality and heart.

Reading history can let us know where we came from, and reading the Book of Songs can let us know what we looked like when we came. What was it like when you came? It's truth, goodness and beauty.

When we read poetry, most people just accept what can be expressed literally, which is difficult to relate to the social or humanistic environment at that time. Teacher Qu Limin explained some typical chapters in The Book of Songs from different angles with her profound knowledge of ancient literature and traditional Chinese medicine.

Here, we see the so-called "the ancestor of eternal songs" Yan Yan; The most sincere commitment to love "drums"; There are helpless and tragic "self-protection" and abandoned wives; And Shuo people, showing a noble and luxurious wedding. Ge Tan described the new wife's desire to return to her family. "Cockcrow" describes the daily life of men and women in bed; In July, record the life of farmers with the truest. ...

"Bitter Leaves" exhorts young people to get married enough is enough, not puppy love; Hengmen advises people to be poor and happy. If you insist on not marrying a beautiful woman like Zhuang Jiang, it will only make you miserable in choosing a spouse; In the last wind, there is a woman in love who loves and hates and can't figure out the behavior of the man she likes. "The Wild Dead" was teased by men, which was both shy and ashamed. I am afraid that refusing too much will hurt a man's heart, and I am afraid that I will be cheated. What I said is only refusal and welcome, which is both a slight resistance and a gentle appeasement ... "Wild Creep" describes a beautiful encounter, and the good mood is beyond words; Women's admiration for men in "Jpua" has years of feelings and petty grievances ... endless stories and endless humanities.

After reading this book, we know the Book of Songs:

Confucius compiled six classics, but the book of songs was deleted and sorted out. Out of more than 3,000 songs, 305 songs were deleted, based on only one principle: naive thinking.

The Book of Songs is folk, and it is all about collecting folk songs. When reading The Book of Songs, you can only see the poem, but not the author. The unknown authors in The Book of Songs may be ordinary men, soldiers, laborers, wives and lovers ... These are their direct and frank expressions.

The most common thing in The Book of Songs is four words and one sentence, which is modest and simple, and does not abuse feelings or spirits. Simple and powerful. The Book of Songs has a more primitive, authentic, passionate and rugged beauty.

The Book of Songs originated from ancient life. In such poems, we can clearly see that the universal value of China people is a simple and poetic life, and we can see that the ancient Chinese nation is calm and elegant, and the secret of life is nothing more than fame and fortune after reading history for 3,000 years, and poetry, wine and pastoral after Wan Li's enlightenment for nine years.

What do you mean: The older the Book of Songs, the better? My understanding is:

First of all, the Book of Songs is related to the poem itself, which can make us live beautifully: useful knowledge keeps us alive; Useless poetry is to make us live beautifully.

Secondly, reading and writing poems can make us become a person full of feelings for the beauty of the world; Reading and writing poems can make you a real person, a person with character and a person full of feelings for the beauty of the world.

It's about learning and teaching poetry: poetry teaching is a kind of good teaching. The so-called good teaching is to keep one's true heart, live one's true self, and reach the realm of life without evil thoughts.

In a word, The Book of Songs has far-reaching significance for our values, outlook on life and world outlook. Whether reading, studying or writing is a good thing for us. Read it, feel it, gradually open your eyes and enlarge your mind. In this way, you will cultivate your own temperament and learn knowledge.

The best way to keep healthy is to read poetry. The most touching thing about The Book of Songs is its health. It is so beautiful and precious that it brings us into a life full of vitality and hope. Let's go back to the era of the Book of Songs and find physical health, emotional health, mental health and spiritual health. This kind of health is "innocence".

The four seasons of life are scenery; Only life is epic.

The older, the better. Keep a heart and love someone. I am lucky to be with you in this life, and I can't ask for more happiness.

People can be old, poetry is always young! Reading poetry and writing poetry are both ways to the temple of God or spirit. Looking back, it was dust; Go ahead, even if there are thorns all over the ground, you can move forward step by step.
