The origin and development of new Yuefu;
1. The new Yuefu poem originated from Du Fu, and was later inherited by Yuan Jie and Gu Kuang, and was strongly advocated by Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen. In the middle Tang Dynasty, Bai Juyi and Yuan Zhen advocated a poetry innovation movement centered on the creation of new Yuefu poems.
2. The so-called new Yuefu is relative to the ancient Yuefu. This concept was first put forward by Bai Juyi. He wrote more than 50 poems when he picked them up, which were beautiful and colorful, and were "according to the facts" into "New Yuefu". After the Anshi Rebellion, the Tang Dynasty witnessed social unrest and political corruption, and people of insight witnessed increasingly serious social problems, hoping to save the declining national situation through political improvement and the promotion of national spirit. This thought was embodied in the ancient prose movement and the new Yuefu movement in the literary world.
The Enlightenment of the New Yuefu Movement in Tang Dynasty to Modern Society;
1. Advocate realism and reflect social reality: The New Yuefu Movement advocates that poetry should truly reflect social reality, rather than simply express personal feelings and ideals. This realistic style and concern for social reality still have enlightenment significance to modern society, encouraging people to express their observation and thinking about real life with poetry.
2. Promoting social reform: The New Yuefu Movement was a part of social reform in the Tang Dynasty. It criticizes social malpractice through poetry and calls for social reform. This pursuit of social reform and the call for justice can also inspire modern society, encourage people to speak out actively when facing social problems, and promote social progress and development.
3. Pay attention to the educational function of poetry: the advocates of the New Yuefu Movement believe that poetry has the function of educating people and can have a positive impact on social atmosphere and people's thoughts. This emphasis on the educational function of poetry is also instructive to modern society, encouraging people to spread positive energy and promote social integrity through poetry.
4. Respect for folk culture: The New Yuefu Movement pays attention to drawing materials and inspiration from the people and respecting folk culture. This respect for folk culture and tolerance for multiculturalism is also enlightening to modern society, encouraging people to draw nutrition from different cultures and respect the development of multiculturalism in their creation.
