Gao You said in Huainanzi Tianwen Xun that "literary,like astronomical phenomena,day is prior to article,the sun,moon,five stars and coma contradict".Thus the original meaning of "astronomical phenomena" refers to the phenomenon that the sun,moon and stars change in the sky.With the deepening of the ancients’ understanding of nature,the meaning of the word "astronomical phenomena" gradually extended.The content of "meteorology" was included in it before the Tang Dynasty,so the word "astronomical phenomena" was a broad term in the Tang Dynasty.From the pre-Qin period to the Sui and Tang dynasties,the literary writing of astronomical phenomena was continuous.The previous generation of literary works had a lot of influence on the creation of astronomical phenomena FU by Tang dynasty scholars.Scholars of Tang dynasty wrote a large number of astronomical phenomena FU on the basis of learning from previous people.There are about 200 astronomical phenomena FU in Tang dynasty were collected in Wen Yuan Ying Hua,Entire Donovan and FU Collection of all dynasties,which became an important theme for the creation of FU in Tang dynasty.The first 150 volumes of Wen Yuan Ying Hua are all FU,headed by "FU of celestial phenomena".Of the 189 astronomical phenomena FU in 20 volumes,175 can be identified as works of the Tang dynasty according to the author’s name,FU title,limited rhyme and key words,which are numerous and rich in content and provide an important documentary basis for the study of astronomical phenomena FU in the Tang dynasty.By comparing and analyzing the works of astronomical phenomena in the Tang Dynasty recorded in Wen Yuan Ying Hua,we can see the multiple impacts of the cultural policies of the Tang Dynasty on the literary creation of the Tang Dynasty.In the Tang Dynasty’s astronomical phenomena FU recorded in Wen Yuan Ying Hua,many articles use Confucian classics for reference and introduce classics into texts,having a strong flavor of Confucian classics.The Tang Dynasty attached great importance to historiography and set up a historiography hall to compile historical books from the very beginning of the founding of the People’s Republic of China.As a result,the words of the previous generation’s historical records were used more frequently,and stories were captured more frequently in the Tang Dynasty’s astronomical phenomena FU.In addition,Li Tang regards Lao Zi as his ancestor and Lao Zi as Emperor Taishang Xuanyuan,and Taoist classics are also reflected in the Tang Dynasty’s astronomical poems recorded in Wen Yuan Ying Hua.Literature and history are bothinherited.Tang Dynasty literati will inevitably be influenced by the previous generation’s excellent works when creating astronomical phenomena FU.Among them,Literary Selections provides many references for Tang Dynasty literati’s creation of astronomical phenomena FU,either quoting its rhetoric or reflecting its connotation,reflecting the inheritance and evolution of literary thoughts.By analyzing the works of astronomical phenomena in Tang Dynasty recorded in Wen Yuan Ying Hua,we can understand the knowledge system and cultural connotation contained in them,and thus have a limited view of the style and features of Tang Dynasty literature.As one of the contents of the national highest-level examination,the importance of the provincial FU test is self-evident.The proposition of the provincial test assignment sometimes reflects the major social reality of the country a year ago and a period of time before.There are a total of 10 examples of provincial FU test on astronomical phenomena in the Tang Dynasty recorded in Wen Yuan Ying Hua,all of which are distributed in the three dynasties of Su Zong,Dai Zong and De Zong after the outbreak of the An-Shi Rebellion.Among these 10 provincial FU test titles,there are another five inscribed with "sun".The rich connotation of eulogizing the monarch contained in these FU tests is noteworthy.By discussing the relationship between astronomical phenomena and politics in Tang Dynasty,we can get a glimpse of the complicated and changeable social reality in this period.As a literary genre,FU literature has multiple artistic aesthetic feelings.As a kind of Tang FU,astronomical phenomena FU has unique artistic characteristics because of the particularity of its description subject.The works of Tang Dynasty’s astronomical phenomena collected in Wen Yuan Ying Hua show a variety of artistic features,such as elegant literary atmosphere and rhythmic harmony,embodying the elegant artistic features of Tang Dynasty’s FU.
