Lin Daiyu's life experience [Lin Daiyu's life experience sadness and temperament formation]

In Lin Daiyu, what has the most artistic value and can shock readers' souls is her rich, beautiful and transcendent spiritual world. Lin Daiyu's spiritual sustenance and soul destination is poetry. As Mr. Wang Kunlun said, "Xue Baochai's life is a lifetime, and Lin Daiyu's life is a poem." If Cao Xueqin built a poetry kingdom for us with the help of A Dream of Red Mansions, then Lin Daiyu is the most dazzling pearl in the crown of this poetry kingdom. It can be said that without poetry, there is no Lin Daiyu.

There are many reasons why Lin Daiyu became the most famous poetess in Grand View Garden. For example, Lin Daiyu read poetry books since she was a child, and her literary skills are profound; She is not only good at playing drums, but also knows music, so she is adept in other artistic fields. Lin Daiyu's dabbling in other artistic fields has broadened her poetic horizons and given her more choices than others ... But among these many reasons, it is easy to be overlooked that her life experience has an important influence on her poetic creation.

Lin Daiyu was originally from a scholarly family, and her father, Lin Ruhai, "used to be a flower detective with a criminal record, but now she has been promoted to a doctor in Lantai Temple". Lin Ruhai has no children but one daughter, Daiyu, so he loves her like the apple of his eye. Unfortunately, when Lin Daiyu was five years old, her mother Jia died of illness. In order to "relieve her father's internal troubles and foreign invasion", she was taken to her grandmother's home, Rongguo House, and began to live under the lonely fence.

As soon as Lin Daiyu entered Guo Rongfu, she warned herself that "I can't take one more step and say a word", but she was left out by her two uncles, leaving her helpless niece behind closed doors. Not only that, my aunt Mrs. Wang also warned Lin Daiyu to stay away from her son Jia Baoyu, and later hated Qingwen, a beautiful girl who looked like Lin Daiyu, until she was executed.

When investigating the Grand View Garden on the grounds of Chunxiang, the discrimination against Lin Daiyu was blatantly suppressed to the extreme. Mrs. Wang is behind the scenes and uses Mrs. Xing as a shield. Mrs. Xing's bodyguard Wang Shanbao's family is in front. In this incident, Lin Daiyu as a relative and Xue Baochai as a relative were treated differently in the underground and in the sky. In the process of searching, they bypassed Xue Baochai's door and refused to enter, but they made a thorough investigation of Lin Daiyu's Xiaoxiang Pavilion and even copied her childhood things, which indirectly humiliated Lin Daiyu. There is no reason. The so-called relatives are just a grandiose excuse. The most fundamental reason is that Xue Baochai's family has a big trend and a big career. Her mother and Mrs. Wang are close relatives and sisters, and there is a strong backer behind them, so others dare not insult her easily. Lin Daiyu's mother has passed away, and her father's family is "not rich" and there are no serious relatives to rely on. For Jia's people, "the Lins are all dead." Lin Daiyu has nothing but a proud and sensitive soul. Everything here belongs to the Jia family. Lin Daiyu knows this, and the Jia family knows this more. So people can justly bully her, and poor and aloof Lin Daiyu can only silently endure all this humiliation. Because she dare not openly show her dissatisfaction with the family who took her in, and dare not offend Mrs. Wang, who is very important to her and doesn't like her very much. In Jiafu, only Jia Baoyu can be regarded as a bosom friend. Jia Baoyu is the only one who knows Lin Daiyu except Jia Jia, but after all, men and women are different, and he can't tell him all his worries. Therefore, Lin Daiyu can only silently endure the loneliness and sadness, and swallow the insults and injuries of the sponsors alone. So, in addition to inexplicably spending all day in Lacrimosa, Lin Daiyu couldn't help but write some poems about "360 days a year, the wind and the sword are hard to press each other".

Lin Daiyu is beautiful, knowledgeable and charming, and her appearance and talent can be said to be unparalleled. Tu Youyou, a red scientist in Qing Dynasty, praised her in A Dream of Red Mansions: "Lin Daiyu's character and talent are the best in A Dream of Red Mansions." Pang criticized Lin Daiyu for "taking orchid as the heart, jade as the bone, lotus as the tongue and ice as the god, which really knocked out the human hairpin skirt." Unfortunately, life is rough, life is wandering, and there is nowhere to go. From the perspective of personal life, she is unfortunate, but from the perspective of art, she is extremely lucky. Because it is the imperfection of her life that completes her artistic characteristics as a poet. Why do you say that? Because judging from the development of our literary history, it is often personal misfortune that increases the opportunities for literati to stand out in literature.

For example, Qu Yuan, a great romantic poet, set up a monument of classical poetry for us with Li Sao. Qu Yuan was born into an aristocratic family, and he was of the same ancestry as Chu Huaiwang. He himself is "knowledgeable, strong-willed, clear in thinking and refined in rhetoric". At first, he was highly valued by Chu Huaiwang. As soon as he entered the door, he discussed state affairs with Wang Tu and gave orders. Meet guests when you go out and cope with the weather. "Later, because Chu Huaiwang listened to the slanderers of ministers, he alienated Qu Yuan in a rage. Qu Yuan has the ambition to serve the country, but he has no door to serve the country. I shook hands with Yu and was abandoned. Therefore, "I wrote Li Sao because I am sad and thoughtful, and those who leave Sao are still worried." Qu Yuan's "loyalty and doubt, loyalty and slander, how can there be no complaints?" Qu Ping's work is Li Sao, and he is blaming himself. ".This is what Lu You said." For fear that the literati are not talented enough, they are often taught to come from the good side. Why should Qu Zi come from Zepan? " ("Historical Records? Biography of Qu Yuan and Jia Sheng (Sima Qian)

There is Jia Yi, a native of Luoyang in the Western Han Dynasty. At the age of eighteen, Jia Yi was "famous in the county for reciting poems". At the age of twenty, he was called a "doctor" by Emperor Wendi. Because of his brilliance, he was promoted to doctor Taizong within one year and became a rare wizard at that time. His "On Qin", with sharp writing, profound reasoning, bold and unrestrained language and great momentum, was praised by Mr. Lu Xun as "the great prose of the Western Han Dynasty". However, after a period of success, the teenager was slandered and jealous, saying that "Luoyang people are young and new, just seeking good power and confusing things." Jia Yi was demoted to be the director of Changsha, and passed through Xiangshui on his way to exile, and wrote the article "Mourning for the Wrestling" in order to "express his depression but not stop his grief".

Another example is Li Bai, who has a great ambition of "laughing at the sky and going out, are we Artemisia people?" However, due to his unruly personality, he can't stand the humiliating life of "destroying his eyebrows for power" and his political ideals and ambitions can't be realized. Therefore, I can only visit the mountains and visit the immortals and drink crazy songs, so as to dispel the pain of my talent and the anxiety that I have nowhere to go when I am old. I express my feelings of "it is difficult to go to the sky" through poetry, revealing the sadness of "the road is as wide as the sky, and there is no way out in front of me", so I made some "five flowers and a thousand pounds of fur, and exchange it with the boy for good wine, and we will drown the worries of generations!" ...

Suffering, for China literati, is often manifested as frustrated career and lack of talent; As far as Lin Daiyu is concerned, it is mainly because of a series of misfortunes caused by her life under a sponsor after her mother died. Lin Daiyu, like the traditional literati in China, has an uncontrollable depression in her heart, which has become a disease, so her creation has become the main channel for her to dredge her divergence. Because literature itself has certain psychological comfort and therapeutic function, this has been confirmed by many people's writing practice. Soren, the pioneer of existentialism? Abai? Kierkegaard said: "I only feel good when I write." I forgot all the pain in my life. I am surrounded by thoughts and I am extremely happy. " If I stop writing for a few days, I will get sick immediately, feel at a loss, suddenly have troubles, and be top-heavy and unbearable. (Kierkegaard's Diary of Kierkegaard) Poetry is the most common and easy-to-use language expression of the so-called "feelings expressed by words" and "shapes expressed by words". "Because words are the source of happiness, because mourning songs and poems that give vent to pain can give people comfort. "(Bayssiere's History of Poetics)" Rogue poet, the devil's unconscious invasion "is a high summary of Lin Daiyu's artistic life. With the help of poetry, she vented her pain and indignation, expressed her desire to "grow wings under the threat of slavery and fly to the end of the sky with flowers", expressed her feelings that "purity is better than being trapped in a ditch" and lamented that "the powder falls in a hundred flowers, and the fragrance disappears." Groups of people in pairs, wandering as thin as life, empty and romantic. Every grass and tree knows sorrow, but youth is bald! Sigh this life, who gives up who gets it? Regardless, I married Dong, left by myself, and endured the fate of staying for a long time.

Great art always comes from great pain. "Setbacks are insoluble, but setbacks are insoluble, and words are eternal, which will achieve eternal tunes." ("Qing poetry?" Sima Qian, a great historian, summed up in his masterpiece Renan: "King Gavin was arrested to play Zhouyi, Zhong You wrote the Spring and Autumn Period, Qu Yuan was demoted to Li Sao, Zuo Qiu was blind and had Mandarin, and Sun Tzu revised the art of war. If you don't move to Shu and spread Lu Lan, Han Fei will go to prison. It should be said that many outstanding poets in A Dream of Red Mansions, such as Xue Baochai and Shi Xiangyun, are outstanding poets in the Red Chamber, but only Lin Daiyu's poems can touch people's hearts and touch our sensitive nerves. There is no reason, because the misfortune of her life has brought great pain to Lin Daiyu, and the pain has given Lin Daiyu too many opportunities to think, which has created her unique melancholy temperament among China literati. That's why her poems are penetrating, touching and easy to arouse people's psychology.
