A preliminary study on the phenomenon of Yuan Mei's social group's creation and singing of"Life and Elegy"poems
In the winter of the 55th year of Emperor Qianlong(1790),Yuan Mei initiated a poetry creation and singing activity called"living elegy",which aroused a great response.The reason why Yuan Mei wrote a poem together when he was alive was to relieve her psychological anxiety in his illness,and to respond to the Taoist priest Hu Wenbing's prophecy and oppose the world style.The 32 songs and poems of"life"collected in"Continuation of Poet's Anthology"reflect the secular view of life and death and life values of some Jiangnan literati at the end of Qianlong period.The trend of collective harmony this time has innovated the creative method and literary style of"life elegy"poetry,and refined the stylistic classification of"elegy"in the literary collection.Exploring this cultural phenomenon is helpful to clarify the literary development of elegy poetry,and to deeply understand the creative mentality,character,feelings and values of the Jiangnan literature people in the late Qianlong period.
