Yunxi comes from Lisao: "Ni's love and sorrow are the crows of Luan." Cloud refers to a cloud, soft and curly, like a cloud; Hey, it means that this girl is beautiful and has a sweet smile. As an important symbol that distinguishes a person from others, name can reflect a person's cultural accomplishment and values to some extent.
Lisao is a poem written by Qu Yuan, a poet in China during the Warring States Period, and it is also the longest lyric poem in ancient China. This poem centers on the poet's life experience, experience and mental journey. The first half repeatedly confided the poet's concern about the fate of Chu and people's life, expressing his desire to reform politics and his will to stick to his ideals and never compromise with evil forces even in times of disaster. The second half reflects the poet's thoughts and feelings of patriotism and love for the people through the statement of dreaming, pursuing ideals and dying after failure.
The whole poem uses the metaphor of beauty and vanilla, a lot of myths and legends and rich imagination, forming a gorgeous literary talent and magnificent structure, showing a positive romantic spirit, and creating a "Sao style" poetry form in the history of China literature, which has a far-reaching impact on later generations. Its main annotations are Wang Yi's Chapters and Sentences of Chu Ci in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Zhu's Notes on Chu Ci in the Southern Song Dynasty and Dai Zhen's Notes on Qu Yuan in the Qing Dynasty.
As for the date of creation of Li Sao, Sima Qian said that Qu Yuan was exiled and wrote Li Sao in Records of the Historian, and in Bao Ren An Shu, he also said that Qu Yuan's exile was a tribute to Li Sao, just like Han Chinese. Therefore, Li Sao is regarded as the work of Qu Yuan after his exile.
Now people have different opinions about this, some say that Qu Yuan did it after he was demoted, some say that Qu Yuan did it after he was demoted to the king of Chu, some say it was done at the end, some say it originated, and sometimes it became early. So far, there is no conclusion. The writing time should be autumn.
As for the reasons for the creation of Li Sao, Sima Qian quoted Liu An's Li Sao from Biographies of Historical Records of Qu Yuan, saying: "Qu Ping's illness is not clever enough, flattery is too bright, and evil songs are harmful to everyone. Fang Zhengzhi couldn't tolerate it, so he wrote "Li Sao" with sadness and meditation. " He also said: "Qu Yuan went straight on the right path, exhausted loyalty and wisdom to serve the monarch and made the world poor. Believe and see doubt, be loyal and slander, can you have no complaints? Qu Ping's work "Li Sao" is self-blaming. "
Qu Yuan's "sadness" and resentment are closely related to the political reality of Chu State. Li Sao is a political lyric poem written by him according to the political reality of Chu State and his own grievances. Because the twists and turns describe the poet's life experience, thoughts and circumstances, some people regard it as an image record of Qu Yuan's life course and call it the poet's autobiography.
Qu Yuan is a great patriotic poet in China's history, the founder of China's romantic literature, the founder and representative writer of Songs of the South, who initiated the tradition of "vanilla beauty" and was known as the "father of Songs of the South". Song Yu, Jing Ke and other famous poets in Chu were all influenced by Qu Yuan.
The appearance of Qu Yuan's works marks that China's poetry has entered a new era from elegant harmony to romantic originality. His main works are Li Sao, Nine Songs, Nine Chapters and Tian Wen. Chu Ci, with Qu Yuan's works as the main body, is one of the sources of China's romantic literature, which has a far-reaching influence on later poetry and has become a bright pearl in the history of China literature.
Qu Yuan's spirit of "seeking" has become the lofty spirit that later generations of people with lofty ideals believe in and pursue.
