Some people say that Du Fu is hypocritical and wrote poems such as "Three Officials and Three Farewells" just to gain a good reputation. How should I reply?

When it comes to Chinese poets, there are really many, and there are many factions, such as Li Bai, the representative of the bold school, Du Fu, the patriotic school, the minimalist school, etc. Recently, many people have said that Du Fu is hypocritical , writing poems such as "Three Officials and Three Farewells" is just to gain a good reputation. This is completely nonsense. Just restore it directly from Du Fu's ancient poems, and you can see the heart of family and country in Du Fu's heart.

 

Du Fu is a poet of the same level as Li Bai, but his treatment is much worse than that of Li Bai. Li Bai lives a really good life, drinking with friends and stuff every day, so Every time I feel in a good mood after drinking, I often write a lot of poems. For example, as we all know, "Flying down three thousand feet, it seems that the Milky Way falls in the sky?" etc., has the title of Poet Immortal, and Du Fu also has the same title. The title of Poet Saint, but the title of Saint in ancient times was very strict. Unless the quality was particularly good, it was impossible to have such a title. There were only a few in thousands of years, such as the Saint Kong who we all know.

 

So from his ancient poems, we can see his aspirations for his family and country. Even if he can change it and the court does not use him, he still uses ancient poems to express his views. This is Everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. That sentence? Tens of millions of mansions are safe, and all the poor people in the world are happy? I don’t know how many people have aroused their inner feelings for the country, the lives of the people, and although the country is developing, it is corrupt. When the situation is still serious, no one understands the suffering of the people, and those in power only care about their own lives.

This is Du Fu's resistance and complaint. At that time, Du Fu had such an ambition, and his ancient poems were basically related to the common people's country. However, some people said that Du Fu was hypocritical and wrote "Three Officials and Three Officials". Don't wait for the poem to gain a good reputation. Such a thing is just nonsense. There is no evidence. It cannot be said that just reading an article will lead to such a misunderstanding. If you analyze Du Fu's entire works at the same time, you will know what Du Fu's heart is. With such concern for the people of the world, there is no such thing as hypocrisy.
