A Study of Japanese Sinologist Tomohisa Matsuura's Reception of the Poetic Language of "Delicate Eyebrows" and "Broken Heart"
As a representative of traditional Chinese literature,classical Chinese poetry has gradually developed some typical images and poetic phrases that are inherited and have a high recurrence rate since Shi Jing,such as"broken heart"and"delicate eyebrows"which were discussed by Tomohisa Matsuura in his study of poetics in the Tang Dynasty.The scholarly community has been looking at the use of the poetic language from the perspective of its success and failure.There is a long tradition in the scholarly world of discussing poetic works in terms of the use of poetic language,but few scholars have made as much effort as Tomohisa Matsuura to study the formation of a particular poetic language and other aspects of classical Chinese poetry,and to further analyze and summarize it from a theoretical point of view based on the study of texts.As an Japanese expert in Tang poetics,he uses an interdisciplinary approach to explore the different attitudes of Chinese and Japanese classical poetry towards the poetic expressions"delicate eyebrows"and"broken-heart",and with a comparative poetic vision and strong poetic theoretical skills,he uncovers the differences in the attitudes of Chinese and Japanese classical poetry toward the same poetic expressions and the differences in their acceptance.And the differences in the acceptance of the same poetic language in Chinese and Japanese classical poetry and the reasons behind it are explored.
