Yu Wang —— Pioneer of Poetry Innovation Movement in Northern Song Dynasty

1. In the early years of the Northern Song Dynasty, it was Yu Wang who tried to change the poetic style of the Five Dynasties.

2. His poems include such ancient poems as Feeling Exile and Making Snow, which satirize the reality and simply and smoothly reflect the current political situation and people's feelings, as well as fresh and clear poems such as Village Trip and Apricot Flowers, which are rich and profound in content.

3. Yu Wang's poetry style is elegant and simple, which initially shows the pursuit of plain beauty; His ancient style is a long single line, which directly expresses his thoughts. The argumentative and prosaic tendency of Song poetry also began to take shape. He created a new atmosphere of poetry in the Song Dynasty and was a pioneer in forming the characteristics of poetry in the Song Dynasty. ?

4. Yu Wang not only imitated Bai Juyi's satirical poems, but also sought a new realm of poetic art from Bai Ti to Du Fu. In the Preface, he said: "Poetry is effective in Du Zimei", and he said: "Take lotte as the back, and dare to be beautiful as the front". The former sentence is a summary of learning from Bai Juyi, and the latter sentence is self-encouragement to learn from Du Fu. This shows his respect for Du Fu and his determination to learn from him.

5. Yu Wang _ Du Xue pays attention to the creation of language, and at the same time attaches importance to the innovation of artistic conception. For example, one of his quatrains "Apricot Blossom" and one of his regular poems "A Journey to the Country" are unparalleled in both the depressed style and the tempering of words, and the true feelings for people's livelihood are the essence of Du Fu's poems.
