What do you think of Wang Wei’s poetry?

Hello, I am happy to answer your question!

Less than 400 of Wang Wei's poems exist. Among them, the most representative of his creative features are poems depicting natural scenery such as mountains, rivers and pastoral areas, and singing about reclusive life. Wang Wei's high achievements in depicting natural scenery made him unique in the poetry circle of the prosperous Tang Dynasty and became a representative figure of the landscape pastoral poetry school. He inherited and developed the tradition of writing landscape poetry initiated by Xie Lingyun, and also absorbed the freshness and nature of Tao Yuanming's pastoral poetry, which brought the achievement of landscape pastoral poetry to a peak, and thus occupied an important position in the history of Chinese poetry.

Most of Wang Wei's landscape and pastoral works not only depict the natural beauty, but also reveal the leisurely and leisurely taste of leisurely life. Poets especially like to express a state of tranquility and tranquility. Some works are desolate or lonely, expressing the thoughts and emotions of being indifferent to reality and even the desolation of Zen.

Wang Wei’s creative talents are multifaceted. He has the highest attainments in Wulu and Wu and Qiyan, and he is also good at other genres. This is quite outstanding in the entire Tang Dynasty poetry circle. His seven rhythms are either majestic and gorgeous, or pure and elegant, and were learned by the Seven Masters of the Ming Dynasty. The seven ancient poems "A Journey to Taoyuan", "The Journey of an Old General", "Tong Cui Fu's Reply to a Wise Brother", etc., are neat in form and flowing in momentum, and can be regarded as the best among the seven ancient poems in the prosperous Tang Dynasty.
