Su Shi first theoretically dispelled the concept that poetry is superior and Ci is inferior. He believed that poetry and poetry have the same origin and belong to one body, and words are "the descendants of poetry." Although poetry and words have differences in external form, their artistic essence and expressive functions should be consistent.
Therefore, he often compares poetry with poetry. Since he elevates poetry to the same status as poetry from a stylistic perspective, this provides the opportunity for poetry to move closer to the poetic style and achieve mutual communication and penetration between poetry and poetry. Theoretical basis.
In order to make the aesthetic taste of poetry truly keep pace with poetry, Su Shi also put forward the creative idea that poetry must "be of the same family". The theory of "we are one family" here is put forward for the "flavor" that is different from Liu Yong's poetry. Its connotations include: pursuing a magnificent style and broad artistic conception, the quality of poetry should be consistent with the character of the person, and the lyrics should be consistent with the character of the person. It should be like writing poetry,
expressing one's true temperament and unique life feelings. Because only in this way can "the writing be like the person he is" ("Reply to Zhang Wenqian County Prime Minister"), and be unique in the creation of lyrics. Su Shi always attached great importance to the integrity of his articles, but opposed following others' footsteps in literature. Therefore, he was dissatisfied with Qin Guan's lack of "character" for "learning from Liu Qi's lyrics".
