What are the characteristics of poetry between Ming and Qing Dynasties?
Poets in Ming and Qing Dynasties experienced painful social changes, so their works can often reflect fierce national struggles and great disasters brought to the people. However, their political attitudes are different. Some people pretend to be adherents of the late Ming Dynasty, showing their thoughts and feelings of not forgetting the motherland. Representative writers are Gu, Huang Zongxi, Wang Fuzhi, Gui Zhuang and Qu Dajun. Their poems express their feelings of injury, patriotism, national subjugation and the hope of regaining sight either directly or through ancient times. For example, "Sad Kunshan" by Guizhuang describes the cruelty of the conqueror in a documentary way: "Once the city is on an iron horse, the streets bleed for ten days. ..... Like diaosi, being forced to be half bald by a puppet Manchu official is an epic. Others became courtiers, such as Qian and Wu. Qian (1582 ~ 1664) was a literary leader in the late Ming Dynasty. After the Qing dynasty, he often wrote some obscure sighs in his poems, which shows that his heart is also very contradictory. Wu's poems (1609 ~ 167 1) objectively and in many ways show the reality of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and have certain historical value and high artistic level. The famous "Qinyuan Qu" records the legend that Wu Sangui did not hesitate to lead the Qing soldiers into the customs in order to recapture his beloved concubine: "All the six armies were in vain, and they became beauties when they rushed to the crown", which is quite famous in the world.
