Change of the relationship between flying birds and music in the poems of the Han and Jin Dynasties
In early classical Chinese poetry,the imagery of flying birds and music often appeared simultaneously.From the Han Dynasty to the Jin Dynasty,the relationship between the two showed a process of change from tightness to looseness.There is a similar structure in the Han Dynasty poetry where music triggers the dual flight of birds.There are still many emotional connections between music,people,and birds in the Jian'an poetry.Except for a few imitations of ancient poetry,the connection between the imagery of flying birds and music in the Jin Dynasty poetry was already very weak.
