Musical Sense and Painting Image ──the aesthetic interest of ancient poems?evolution into metrical poems from the perspective of the relation between the mind and objects

The evolution of ancient poems into metrical poems embodies not only the change of words into metrical patterns but also the transformation of sentiment and emotion into objects and forms. A poem is the complex of mind and object. The musical sense of poems comes from the expression of sentiment and emotion, and the rhythmic move of the mind. The painting image comes from the self-presentation of objects. The change of aesthetic interest from ancient poems to metrical poems in terms of the relationship between the mind and objects shows that poems in Qing, Han, and Wei dynasties are rich in musical sense while poems in the six dynasties are better in painting images, that metrical poems in Tang Dynasty make the two combined to reach the merge of the mind and objects in a higher level. The profound images in poems in Tang Dynasty depend on the universal concern of objects on poems in the six dynasties.
