What style of the times did the mid-Tang Dynasty present and what influence did it have on the poets in the mid-Tang Dynasty?

Prosperity and opening up, the main tendency of poetry circles in the middle Tang Dynasty is to avoid reality and be empty, to praise mountains and rivers and to praise seclusion. Artistic pursuit of dilution and peace, the pursuit of charm, tend to be neat and exquisite.

In the middle Tang Dynasty, because the social, political, economic, ideological and cultural background was very different from that in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, the positive romantic spirit in the prosperous Tang Dynasty declined sharply, and it was replaced by calm observation and deep thinking on social reality. The New Yuefu Movement, represented by Yuan Zhen and Bai Juyi, strongly advocated reflecting the sufferings of the people as the main content of poetry creation, and took simple language and Yuefu spirit as the artistic pursuit, which represented the overall direction of realistic poetry in the middle Tang Dynasty. At the same time, Han Meng's poetry school, represented by Han Yu and Meng Jiao, reflects the darkness of reality through personal suffering, pursues strangeness in art, and sees suffering in danger and strangeness. The romantic poetry in the middle Tang Dynasty is represented by Li He, whose poetry is rich in imagination and has a strong sentimental sentiment. In addition, Liu Yuxi's poetic style is magnificent and pure, and Liu Zongyuan's poetic style is handsome and profound, which makes the poetic circles of this period rich and colorful.
