He was the first poet in China. Romantic poets in Tang Dynasty were praised as "poetic immortals" by later generations.
Du Fu's influence on China's classical poetry is far-reaching, and he is called "the sage of poetry" by later generations, and his poems are called "the history of poetry".
Similarities between the two:
1. They are all famous poets in the Tang Dynasty;
2. All have been officials and have been demoted;
3. Everyone has a good reputation and has been passed down to this day; Both of them are loyal ministers.
Du Li has great political ambitions, but both of them are incompetent. They all have the heart to popularize the world, but they have not been reused by the court.
Everyone advocates absorbing elegant and refined prose, taking the works of various schools before Jian 'an, taking their essence and using macro articles to achieve their greatness.
6. Both Li Bai and Du Fu are experts in establishing their own unique image groups.
7. Du Li also loves the motherland, the people and the war of aggression.
Difference:
With a heavy sense of responsibility for the fate of the country and the nation, Du Fu stared at the land of bloodshed and tears, faithfully depicting the face of the times and his inner sorrow.
The painstaking efforts of Du Fu's poems can be regarded as a standard for people. In this respect, Du Fu's poems have a greater influence on later generations than Li Bai's.
