1. Qu Yuan
Qu Yuan’s only poems, "Li Sao", "Heavenly Questions" and "Nine Songs", pioneered romanticism and have influenced generations of people for two thousand years. He is called the ancestor of Chu Ci and formed the tradition of vanilla beauty.
"Li Sao" and "The Book of Songs" are both called "Feng Sao" and are works of the two major schools of romanticism and realism. The Book of Songs is a collection of works written by people in the pre-Qin period. Its authors range from princes and nobles to common people. "Li Sao" was written by Qu Yuan alone, and is called "The Book of Songs" together, which shows Qu Yuan's high literary talent.
2. Li Bai
Li Bai, whether it is a five-character poem or a seven-character poem, can write the best of the moment, and even reach the top. One of the five-character quatrains is "Sleeping at Hanshan Temple at Night" - The dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick the stars with your hands. "Thoughts on a Quiet Night" - Look up at the bright moon and lower your head to think about your hometown. The seven-character poem includes "Farewell to Meng Haoran in Guangling" - the lone sail is far away in the blue sky, and only the Yangtze River can be seen in the sky. "Early Departure from Baidi City" - the apes on both sides of the bank can't stop crying, and the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains. This poem is one of the most important poems in the Tang Dynasty.
3. Li He
Li He's poetic style is strange and romantic, his imagination is unique and his conception is exquisite, which makes him unique in the mid-Tang Dynasty. Qu Yuan talked more about herbs, Li Bai talked more about gods, and Li He talked more about ghosts. His poems include "The soul of Chu is searching for dreams and the wind is whistling" ("Wushan High", "The ghost mother is crying in the autumn suburbs" ("Chunfang Zhengzi Jianzi Song"), "Ghost lamps are like paint dotted with pine flowers", "A trip to the fields of Nanshan", " "Paper money plugs whistle into the whirlwind" ("Shenxianqu"), "The returning wind sends guests off and blows the yin fire" ("Changping Arrow Song").
The main feature of the romantic spirit of Li Bai's poetry is the expression in the poems It expresses his passionate pursuit of the ideal state and his passion for personal liberation.
Li Bai compared himself with Dapeng in his early years. "Unfinished and ambitious purpose" was revised again and written as "Ode to Dapeng". Later, it was also written in "Shang Li Yong": "The Dapeng rises with the wind in one day and swings up to ninety thousand miles." If the wind calms down, it will still be able to shake off the water. "In his later years, it was said in "The Death Song": "The great roc flies to the sky and shakes the eight descendants." The image of the great roc is exactly right. It is a self-portrait of Li Bai's arrogant, majestic and extraordinary character.
