What are the conditions for the prosperity of Tang poetry?

The prosperity of Tang poetry is based on national unity, economic development and cultural prosperity, but the prosperity of Tang poetry is directly related to the imperial examination and the love of poetry.

In the second year of Emperor Gaozong (AD 680), the court stipulated that only the original writers were eligible to take the second Jinshi examination. During the kaiyuan period, it was further stipulated that the examination should be devoted to poetry, which raised the required standard. These regulations set off a nationwide upsurge in learning poetry. Scholars all over the world study and write poems with great enthusiasm in order to honor lifelong scholars. Many historical data show that. As early as the childhood education, I began to learn poetry. Some famous poets, such as Bai Juyi and Liu Yuxi, have been collected by the people countless times and used as teaching materials in private schools. In particular, the emperors of the Tang Dynasty also paid special attention to the poetry examination. Emperor Wenzong, Xuanzong and other emperors are always asked whether they have outstanding talents in poetry and literature. They respect everyone in the poem. Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty mourned deeply and said, "Who was the poet in sixty years? Floating clouds are not famous and easy to live, but naturally happy. The boy sings a long and hateful song, and Hu Er can sing the pipa. The article has filled the ears of pedestrians and once missed you. " Between the lines, full of heartfelt admiration and memory. It's a two-way street. Since it is Dr. Li (the honorific title of Li She), we are not strong, but please send us a poem. Li She immediately said, "It's raining in the village on the river, and the woodcutter doesn't know until evening. He doesn't have to escape his name and surname. Now he is half a king in the world. " As a result, the robbers not only gave Li She a gift, but also turned over a new leaf and became a good citizen.

In the Tang Dynasty, writing poems has become the fashion of the whole society. It goes without saying that literati will always encounter poetry. From emperors and high officials to woodcutters and pawns, everyone can take a few words. It is said that every new work by Bai Juyi has to be judged by old neighbors before it can be finalized. At the same time, the poems of celebrities are often printed privately and can be sold in the market at any time. It is also easier to improve the level. At that time, a seven-year-old woman bid farewell to her brother's masterpiece in the barren land of Lingnan, and Li Mi, a little girl from Chang 'an, was praised by Tang Xuanzong when she was five years old. According to statistics, when Emperor Qianlong first compiled The Complete Poems of Tang Dynasty, we could see that there were more than 3,000 outstanding poets in the Tang Dynasty, and there were about 50,000 catchy poems. Later, we kept looking for miscellaneous historical books and archaeological documents, and today we can see about ten kinds.
