Bai Juyi (February 28, 772-September 8, 846), whose real name was Lotte, was later named Xiangshan Jushi and Mr. Zuiyin. Xinzheng, Henan, Taiyuan, Shanxi, was a writer in the Tang Dynasty. He is particularly good at writing poems and is one of the most representative poets in the middle Tang Dynasty. The works are approachable, and there is even a saying that "an old woman can understand".
Bai Juyi actively engaged in political reform in his early years, cared about people's livelihood, advocated the new Yuefu movement, and advocated that poetry creation should be based on real events and reflect the situation of the times. He is one of the important representatives of practical literature after Du Fu. Although he did not change his concern for people's livelihood in his later years, he often abandoned Italian poetry and wine to do a biography of Mr. Zuiyin because of political frustration.
Extended data:
Bai Juyi was born in Xinzheng, Henan Province in 772 (the seventh year of Tang Daizong Dali), and later moved to Yue Zhong, Quzhou, R&F, Xiangyang, Luoyang and Chang 'an due to war and other factors. When I was young, my family was poor, and I had more contact and understanding of social life and folk sufferings. In 787, Bai Juyi went to Chang 'an to visit the famous Gu Kuang at that time.
When Gu Kuang saw Bai Juyi's name, he once joked that "Migui is easy to live in." It was not until I saw his poems that I sighed: "If there is a word, it will be easy to live." In 799, Bai Juyi began to participate in scientific research. He entered the Jinshi in 800 and returned to his hometown to visit relatives.
In 802, he was awarded the title of scholar and became lifelong friends with Yuan Zhen. In 803, he was awarded the secretary of the provincial school and settled in Chang 'an. Examples of his works are: Farewell to Fude Ancient Grass and Hundred Judgments.
