Tuanfan-Tuanfan Poetry
Newly cracked, fresh and clean as frost and snow.
Cut into acacia fans, round like the bright moon.
In and out of your arms, shaking the breeze.
I am often afraid that the autumn festival will come and the cold will seize the heat.
If you give up your donation, your kindness will be lost.
Round fan-the origin of the fan
China's fan culture has a profound cultural background.
Tuanfan is an integral part of national culture, which is closely related to bamboo culture and Buddhist culture. China has always been called the kingdom of fan manufacturing. The main materials of fans are: bamboo, wood, paper, fans, ivory, tortoise shell, jade, bird feathers, other palm leaves, betel nut leaves, straw, cattail and so on. It can also be woven or made into various daily craft fans with beautiful shapes and exquisite structures, which are carefully carved, carved, ironed, drilled or waved by celebrities. China fan culture originated in ancient times. In hot summer, our ancestors hunted plant leaves or poultry feathers and simply processed them to attract the sun's wind, so fans are called shading days, which is the original source of fans. Fans have a history of three or four thousand years in China. After thousands of years of evolution, improvement and perfection, it has developed into hundreds of fan families, but it is generally divided into two categories. Flat fan 1 handle (that is, round fan, sunflower fan, wheat straw fan, tracts fan, etc.). ) cannot be folded, and the two folding fans can be folded freely. The flat fan comes from the barrier fan (palm fan) bamboo+agility (the fan made of bamboo chips in ancient times was called bamboo+agility). During the Warring States, Qin and Han Dynasties, a semi-regular instant noodle was shaped like a single door, so it became the mainstream of fans at that time. Instant noodles are made of thin bamboo strips, which are used by emperors and civilians.
Fans originated in China and have a history of more than 3,000 years in China. It first appeared in the Yin Dynasty and was made of colorful pheasant hair. It's called a barrier fan, so there is a feather in the fan word. At that time, the fans were not used to fan the wind and enjoy the cool, but to keep out the sun and sand when the emperor went out for inspection. After the Western Han Dynasty, fans began to enjoy the cool. During the Three Kingdoms period, Zhuge Liang gently shook the goose feather fan, and his clever plan came into being. The wind of the feather fan is slow and soft, which is not reasonable. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, feather fans were mostly made of silk, silk, silk and other fabrics to decorate embroidery. A moon-shaped fan is called Wan Fan or Tuan Fan, also called Acacia Fan. At that time, fans were rectangular, sunflower-shaped, plum-shaped, hexagonal and round; There are also handles made of wood, bamboo and bone; There are also fan pendants, tassels and jade ornaments. Landscape flowers are often embroidered on the fan, with different styles. The boudoir ladies hand-cranked round fans, and the breeze is Xu Lai, which can not only add the elegant and quiet manners of the host, but also reflect the innocent and lively personality of women.
Fan-painted poems first appeared in the Three Kingdoms period. According to Zhang Yanyuan's History of Famous Paintings in the Tang Dynasty, there is a story that Cao Mengde's master book and Wei Taizu's painting fan were extended into flies. Jin Shu? There is a story in The Biography of Wang Xizhi. Wang Xizhi wrote a fan to an old woman. At that time, an old mother with a hexagonal bamboo fan asked Wang Xizhi for books. When she sold them, she went from 12 to 100. Today, there is a Fan Bridge at the southern foot of Jishan Mountain in Shaoxing, Zhejiang Province, which is said to be Wang Xizhi's Fan House.
The folding fan actually originated in Japan, and its manufacturing inspiration comes from the opening and closing of bat wings. During the Northern Song Dynasty, folding fans were introduced into China as a tribute, but they were not widely used. By the Ming and Qing dynasties, it had been quite prosperous. Easy to carry and comfortable, it has become the apple of the eye of literati. Fan bones are made of precious materials such as ivory, tortoise shell and sandalwood. Fan is divided into three types: sprinkling gold, mixing gold, beating gold and painting incense. Some also ask skilled craftsmen to carve carefully on the surface of the fan bone, making it a precious work of art, and the price of a fan is worth hundreds of gold. The folding fan is semicircular, wide at the top and narrow at the bottom, radiating all around, so it has unique charm in composition, brushwork and image. In the Northern Song Dynasty, poems and paintings were written on folding fans. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties, intellectuals like to dance on the fan, which makes the fan painting and calligraphy art shine brilliantly in China, with a wide range of themes and diverse styles. Although the written fan is not large in scale, it has become a special artistic variety in China's paintings, with flowers, birds, insects and fish, beautiful women in mountains and rivers, stories of characters and diverse shapes.

During the Yin and Zhou Dynasties, a Zhai fan appeared, which was made of colorful pheasant tail feathers, so it was called feather fan. It is said in Erya that leaves are named after wood and fans are named after reeds. It can be inferred that the early fans may be rectangular reeds.

After the Qin and Han Dynasties in China, the shapes of fans were mainly square, round and hexagonal, and the fabric of the fan was silk. Because it is widely used in the palace, it is also called Gongshan. The popular fans in Sui and Tang Dynasties were mainly Wan Fan, Feather Fan and a few paper fans. After the Song Dynasty, folding fans gradually became popular. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, Zhejiang, Suzhou and Sichuan were rich in folding fans, and inscriptions and paintings were also popular here. This exquisite skill was introduced to Europe from the Ming Dynasty, and then it became popular all over the world.
