If we look at the level of Yuefu poetry, the level of Li Bai, Du Fu and Bai Juyi is not comparable, because they are three ways; if we look at the achievements of the song style, the three Each has its own merits, and each is good at winning. If we compare the works of modern poetry and emphasize the rhythm of poetry, then Du Fu, who "becomes more detailed in the rhythm of poetry in the late chapters", is undoubtedly the first, followed by Bai Juyi, and Li Bai often does not pay much attention to the rhythm of poetry; if we compare the works of modern poetry and emphasize freshness and brightness. In the first criterion, Li Bai is better than Bai Juyi and Du Fu; if evaluated from the perspective of style diversity, Du Fu is better than Bai Juyi and Bai Juyi is better than Li Bai.
If we look at the influence on later generations, Du Fu has the deepest, longest and widest influence, followed by Bai Juyi, and Li Bai last, and the influence bonus of personality strength and elegant posture is too high. If we compare the choice of words and phrases, Li Bai is clear and majestic, Du Fu is excellent at calligraphy, and Bai Juyi is good at both elegance and vulgarity. You can't say "bad". So, what to compare? Next, tell me your reasons for objecting to that answer. In addition to problems with the logic of language, "depressed and frustrated" was not specially created to evaluate Du Fu's poetry, but Du Fu's own words to evaluate Mei Gao and Yang Xiong, which were later appropriated to evaluate Du Fu's poetry. This is common sense. It doesn't matter if you don't know. Don't sound like an expert when you come up. Sometimes you can't stand it, and sometimes you don't understand anyone else. Obviously your understanding is limited. Also, to say that Bai Juyi was influenced by Du Fu, although this is debatable, may not be too wrong; to say that Bai Juyi imitated Du Fu, and "clumsily" imitated Du Fu, is called nonsense.
It is important to know that it was not until the Song Dynasty and the Tang Dynasty that Du Xue, a local sect who had the consciousness to become a cultivator, was the first to speak highly of Du Fu in his "Inscriptions and Prefaces on the Tomb of Du Jun, a former member of the Ministry of Industry and Industry of the Tang Dynasty". In the seventh year of Yuanhe, that is, 812 AD, Bai Juyi was already forty years old. Many chapters of "Qin Zhongyin" and "New Yuefu" had been written two or three years ago, and their style was very different from Du Fu's Yuefu poems. How could Can we say that Bai Juyi imitated Du Fu? According to this statement, Huang Tingjian and Chen Yuyi are not poets in the first place, but imitators of Du Fu. As for whether the imitation is poor or not, it is a matter of opinion. ?
