Overall background
In the history of China's poetry development, poetry has undergone great changes. Poetry is divided into ancient poetry and modern poetry. The earliest form of classical poetry is four-character ancient poetry. It is mellow and simple, simple and elegant, mainly appearing in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. Later, it developed into a five-character ancient poem, mainly composed of Han Yuefu poems. After that, there are seven-character ancient poems, and the founder is Cao Pi.
Then he entered modern poetry. Five-character poems are the earliest, followed by seven-character poems, five-character quatrains and seven-character quatrains. Generally speaking, classical poetry is more free and casual, while modern poetry, especially Tang and Song poetry, is very important. As the representative of modern poetry, Tang poetry and Song poetry are worthy of our careful reading.
