What is Li Shangyin's poetry good at?

Li Shangyin is generally regarded as the most outstanding poet in the late Tang Dynasty. His poetic style is deeply influenced by Li He, and his syntax, composition and structure are all influenced by Du Fu and Han Yu. Many critics believe that he is second only to Du Fu, Li Bai and Wang Wei among the outstanding poets in the Tang Dynasty. As far as the uniqueness of poetic style is concerned, he is not inferior to any poet. Those who appreciate Li Shangyin's poems and those who criticize him are all aimed at his distinctive personal style. Many poets in later generations imitated Li Shangyin's style, but none of them were recognized.

According to the arrangement and research of Liu and Yu Shucheng, there are 594 poems handed down from ancient times by Li Shangyin, of which 38 1 basically determines the writing time, and 2 13 cannot be classified as a specific year. In addition, there are more than a dozen poems suspected to be Li Shangyin's, but the evidence is insufficient. Judging from the theme of chanting, Li Shangyin's poems can be mainly divided into several categories:

Politics and History-Wing Huai, as an intellectual who cares about politics, Li Shangyin wrote a lot of poems in this field, and about 100 poems have been handed down. Among them, Bai Yun in the Western Suburb, Shi Dong Sui and Two Feelings are more important works. Li Shangyin's early political poems were mostly based on Chen's current situation, and their harsh tone of grief and indignation and sense of self-expectation reflected his mentality at that time. In poems about political and social contents, it is a feature of Li Shangyin's poems to borrow historical themes to reflect his views on contemporary society. Fu Hou, two poems of Northern Qi Dynasty, Mao Ling, etc. It is a representative.

Expressing feelings and praising things, Li Shangyin had a bumpy career and his ambition could not be realized.

So I used poetry to dispel my depression and anxiety. Ding An Tie Tower, In Spring, Happy Garden and Du Gongbu in the Middle of Shu are the most popular songs. It is worth noting that many seven-character poems in this kind of works are considered as important successors of Du Fu's poetic style.

Emotional poetry, including most untitled poems, is the most distinctive part of Li Shangyin's poems and the most concerned part of later generations. Jinse, Poems of Yantai Mountain, Three Poems by Bi Cheng, Return to the Temple of Our Lady, etc. , has always maintained a style similar to untitled poetry. Five Willow Branches, Sending Friends to the North on a Rainy Night, Mourning for the Past and Going East, Three Passes of Snow, etc. It embodies the artistic conception of another style of Li Shangyin's emotional poems.

Entertainment and communication, among Li Shangyin's poems used for communication, several poems addressed to Hu Ling Mao (rewarding a vacancy, a letter to the secretary of your fox, rewarding a doctor, sending a bachelor's degree, dreaming of a bachelor's degree, and Hu Ling Scheeren said that he and your fox staged a play in the moon last night) are particularly eye-catching, in order to show that he and your fox are together.
