Appreciate the similarities and differences between Li Yu's "Lang Tao Sha" (Rain Gurgling Outside the Curtain) and Wen Tingyun's "Bodhisattva Man"

Same: both express the poet’s desolate and lonely inner world

Different: Li Yu’s poem uses contrasting techniques to express the tragic emotion of the country’s destruction and family destruction. The style is tragic and the artistic conception is profound, breaking through the style of Huajian Ci School.

Wen Tingyun uses contrasting techniques to express inner loneliness and emptiness.
