Representative poet:

Quit the viceroy and go to Shuzhong for his post.
"However, as long as China keeps our friendship, heaven will remain our neighbor."

Chen Ziang's "Thirty-eight Poems of Remembrance" and "Youzhou Tower"
"Before me, where was the past era? Behind me, where are the future generations? ."
Prosperous Tang Dynasty: The reign of Kaiyuan Tianbao in Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty. Tang poetry reached its peak. The prosperous Tang Dynasty is an era with various schools, different styles and mature genre forms. The real life in all aspects of society has been fully reflected in various systems and styles written by poets. Literary historians are used to dividing schools according to themes. They have pastoral landscape poets represented by Wang Wei and Meng Haoran who describe the peaceful and serene natural world. There are frontier poets, represented by Cen Can and Gao Shi, who praise the heroic spirit of serving the country and making contributions. If we divide the poetry schools in this period by creative methods, the greatest achievements and the farthest influence are undoubtedly romanticism represented by Li Bai and realism represented by Du Fu. Li Bai and Du Fu established their own artistic styles with their poetic genius, extensive and profound artistic accomplishment, love for the motherland and the people, and deep understanding and perception of real life. They showed this great and changeable era in an all-round way, and pushed the romantic and realistic poetry art to the peak. They are not only great poets in the Tang Dynasty, but also the most outstanding representatives of these two schools in the development of China's classical poetry.
Landscape pastoral poet:
Wang Wei: Autumn Night in the Deep Mountains
Birds singing in the stream: "People are idle and osmanthus flowers fall"
Meng Haoran: Passing the Old People's Village
Mid-Tang Dynasty: After the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty went from prosperity to decline. The reality after An Shi Rebellion made the poet clearly observe and think about the objective world, so the mainstream of poetry in the middle Tang Dynasty was realism. The "New Yuefu" movement, represented by Bai Juyi, is a realistic school formed in this trend. In particular, Bai Juyi created a series of novels, such as Selling Charcoal Weng and Xinfeng Broken Arm Weng, to attack the darkness. In addition, Li He made outstanding innovations in artistic conception and language, and Liu Zongyuan and Liu Yuxi were also accomplished poets in this period.
Late Tang Dynasty: Du Mu and Li Shangyin were active. Du Mu, out of Du Fu and Han Yu, melted freshness and indifference in style. Li Shangyin was especially good at the Seven Laws, and made gratifying progress after Du Fu in the form of the Seven Laws. Wen, who is as famous as Li Shangyin, is not as talented as Li, but his frivolous poetic style has a great influence on poets in the late Tang Dynasty.
Ci is a new form of poetry that rose in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. Originally called "Quzi Ci" or "Quzi". Although the sentence patterns of words are uneven, they are "fixed in tone, word and rhyme." The rise of "Le Yan" in the Tang Dynasty and the social atmosphere of pursuing pleasure led to the popularity of Qu Zi Ci, which aimed at entertaining guests, and attracted literati to participate in creation. Li Bai's "Bodhisattva Man" and "Qin Yi E" are known as "the ancestors of one hundred generations of lyrics and songs". Zhang's Fisherman's Songs and Bai Juyi's Memories of Jiangnan in the Prosperous Tang Dynasty are both masterpieces of ci. After the development of Wen and Li Yuhe, it reached the peak of ci creation in Song Dynasty.
Liu Yong, a poet in the Northern Song Dynasty, developed a long tune system, and was good at organizing more complicated contents with folk sayings and narrative techniques to reflect the lives of middle and lower class citizens.
Graceful and restrained school: "Poetry has charm" not only refers to the theme of ci, but also refers to the style of ci. Elegance is the authenticity of words.
Bold school: it broke the narrow traditional concept of ci, expanded the content of ci, improved the artistic conception of ci and created a new bold style.
