What is the social background of the prosperity of Yuanqu in Tang poetry and Song poetry?

The development and prosperity of culture in a period are nothing more than several reasons. First, the foundation is good, and it has a profound cultural foundation, so the development of culture is definitely rapid; Secondly, the economy is relatively prosperous, and all political and cultural development is based on economic prosperity; Finally, the support of national policies, communication with the outside world and enlightened cultural policies will all make culture develop in a positive direction, so the development of Tang poetry and Song poetry and Yuanqu is nothing more than these reasons.

First, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty was the most enlightened dynasty in the ancient history of China, and the prevalence of the imperial examination system also made the culture flourish, thus promoting the development of Tang poetry. Economically speaking, the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty made neighboring small countries come to worship one after another. They must bring their own local culture to sacrifice, so the culture of the Tang Dynasty can blend different cultures and prosper. Moreover, from the policy point of view, the society of the Tang Dynasty was relatively open, the foreign economic and cultural policies were relatively open, and ethnic integration and unity enriched the culture of the Tang Dynasty.

Second, the prosperity of Song poetry. On the one hand, the development of Song poetry can be said to be the development and extension of Tang poetry. After careful analysis, we can easily find that there are many similarities between Song Ci and Tang Poetry, and the prosperity of Song Ci is also related to the background of the times. Handicraft industry began to flourish and commercial economy flourished in Song Dynasty, which provided an economic foundation for the development of Song Ci. With the expansion of the citizen class, people's living standards have improved, so I hope that cultural life will be more abundant.

Third, the prosperity of Yuanqu. Although Yuan Qu is not as prosperous as Tang Poetry and Song Poetry, its position in history cannot be underestimated. The urban economy in Yuan Dynasty had a preliminary model, which provided sufficient material basis for the prosperity of Yuan Qu. At that time, the class and the general public demanded cultural diversity, which also made the culture develop into diversified forms of expression other than Tang poetry and Song poetry, so Yuanqu was also the product of social development.
