Ambitious, brilliant and bumpy career are the basic reasons for the depressed and frustrated style. Du Fu can be said to be ambitious, but he tried again and again, but there was no way to serve the country. Du Fu has a prominent family background, and his grandfather Du Shenyan, who is famous for his five-character poems, is one of the founders of the five-character poems. His father, Du Xian, served as county magistrate and Sima, and served as an official's home for generations. At the age of seven, he can write poetry, and at the age of nine, he can copy Yu Shinan's calligraphy. By the time he was fourteen or fifteen, his poems had become famous. But it is such a "prodigy" who is very frustrated in his career. The Anshi Rebellion broke out, and the prosperous Tang Dynasty turned to decline, and Du Fu's fate was even more unfortunate. Du Fu, who was over 500 years old, lived a vagrant life like a beggar and finally died in another country. Du Fu, who suffered from the war, saw the people's deeper suffering and had a deeper understanding of reality. His "three officials and three parting", such as Xin 'an official, Tongguan official, Shihu official, newly married, resigned from the old and homeless, truly described the declining county officials, Guan officials and old women in the Tang Dynasty.
The hardships of life enable poets to experience social reality more deeply, thus contributing to a depressed and frustrated style. However, no matter what hardships he experienced, Du Fu's ideal is unshakable, that is, "being a gentleman first, then being simple in folk customs." Being in poverty, I am always expressing my patriotic feelings and worrying about my country and people. For example, the banks of the Yellow River were recovered by the imperial army: "The news is in this distant west station! The north has been recovered! At first, I couldn't stop crying on my coat. Where are my wife and son? There is not a trace of sadness on their faces. However, I packed my books and poems crazily. The song of Whitehead must be sung vertically. On a green spring day, that is the beginning of my return home. Come back from this mountain, pass another mountain, go up from the south and then go north-to my own town! "The joy of this poem is vivid on the paper, but this kind of joy makes people feel sad, and they can deeply feel the poet's anxiety about state affairs day and night. Such noble patriotic feelings are the real reason why this poem touches people's hearts. In these descriptions of life sufferings, on the one hand, the poet has deep sympathy for the people who have suffered greatly, and hates the enslavement and persecution of the people by officials; On the other hand, he supported the dynasty's counter-insurgency war and hoped that the people would suffer hardships and cooperate with the dynasty to pacify the rebels. This complex and contradictory thought is the spiritual embodiment of the poet's concern for the country and the people.
Du Fu is a poet who cares about national security and people's sufferings. In turbulent times, personal setbacks are full of sadness at the touch. There is a deep anxiety in his poems, whether it is sketching people's sufferings, homesickness for friends, or writing about his own poverty, his feelings are profound and broad. His poems contain an accumulated emotional force. Every time he wants to spit it out, his kindness and his Confucian self-restraint form a neutral attitude towards life, which suppresses the grief that is about to spit it out and makes it slow, deep and low.
For example, in "From Beijing to Fengxian, reciting 500 words", the ambition was frustrated, the official position was unsuccessful, and the career was unsuccessful. The middle four sentences turn, and the feelings are ups and downs. Anger will erupt when the aftermath is uneven, but he puts aside personal injustice and describes Mount Li instead. From the extravagant life on Mount Li, I wrote that "the wine and meat in Zhumen stink, and the bones on the road freeze to death", the feelings of grievance and resentment seem to erupt again, but no, the feelings whirl around and become a deep sigh that "the honor and disgrace are so different that it is hard to describe". "Beginner smell cry about it, young hungry already dead. I would rather give up a mourning, and the alley also sobbed. If you are a father, you will die if you have no food. "The feeling of grief seemed hard to control, but it didn't break out. "Meditate on the unemployed, because they are far away." Sadness stops in the south, and the hole cannot be broken. "Personal grief has become a deep concern for people's suffering, leaving endless charm." Li Bai's two Poems of Dreams are also good examples of this kind of repeated expression of feelings. I saw it in my dream, and I doubt it is true. Obviously he really came, and he wondered why he could escape from the cage. Said he didn't really come, and clearly saw his haggard color in the moonlight. Really untrue, showing a strong friendship like wine, deep and low, ups and downs. The Northern Expedition, horse washing, Zhuangyou, seven songs in the same valley, giving Zheng eighteen dollars to demote Taizhou households, and eight autumn poems are all such examples. Depression and frustration are the main styles of Du Fu's poems. Depression is emotional sadness; Drug withdrawal is the ups and downs of emotional expression and repeated low returns.
The gloomy style of Du Fu's poems shows the poet's high patriotism, which has played a positive educational role not only in the history of literature, but also in the history of China. From Du Fu's poems, we can understand the truth that "poetry comes from people", and good poems are created by excellent personality. I am sincerely proud that there is such a great poet as Du Fu in the history of China literature.
