Of course, the prosperity of Tang poetry is closely related to the external factors such as social politics, economy and culture at that time and the internal factors of the traditional development of poetry itself. At the same time, the prosperity of Tang poetry is also closely related to the creators of poetry, the audience of poetry, the emphasis on poetry and fu, and its wide social application value. Beijing's envoy has a long way to go to his hometown, and his tears are still wet. I will meet you immediately without paper and pen, and I will bring your news to report peace. "Cen Can went to the frontier with the ambition of pursuing fame and eager to contribute to the frontier. The poem is full of lively frontier flavor, life interest and human touch, which makes people feel infinite when reading it. The poet's rich life experience has accumulated a lot of material for poetry creation and precipitated profound thoughts and feelings.
In the Tang Dynasty, literati had to go through a long and arduous study before they entered the society as officials. Many scholars have studied hard for many years. "Turning on the light at night is the time for men to study" is a true portrayal, and Du Fu even reached the position of "reading thousands of books and writing like a god". Most of the poets in the Tang Dynasty came from common people and generally chose to study in temples and Taoist temples in the mountains, such as Chen Ziang, Li Bai, Bai Juyi, Cen Can, Gao Shi, Meng Jiao, Li He and Du Mu. Secondly, there were a lot of books in temples and Taoist temples. In addition to Buddhist scriptures, there are a large number of classics and historical books from the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, such as Four Books and Five Classics, Historical Records and the Book of the Later Han Dynasty, which give scholars the opportunity to read widely. Scholars in the Tang Dynasty studied in the mountains and forests, which accumulated great energy for their poetry creation.
Scholars in Tang Dynasty not only read thousands of books, but also actively advocated Wan Li Road. So many literati travel around the world with a bag of books and a sword, singing while walking, and singing everywhere they go. They traveled all over the famous mountains and rivers, they traveled all over the vast border, and they also traveled all over the capital. They wrote many beautiful poems during this roaming, such as Everything by Cen Can, a frontier poet.
The prosperity of Tang poetry was not only because there were a large number of poets who loved and worked hard at that time, but also because there were a large number of high-quality audiences who loved poetry, spread widely and were full of expectations. This has played a very good role in boosting the quality of Tang poetry. First of all, I heard a singer sing: "When you enter Wulianhe on a cold rainy night, Chushan will see the guests off. If relatives and friends in Luoyang ask each other, a piece of ice heart is in the jade pot. " This is Wang Changling's work when he left Xin Jian at Furong Inn, and Wang Changling was quite proud of it. Then, another singer sang, "I saw your book when I opened my eyes with tears the day before yesterday." The night station is lonely now, or the cloud home. " This is Gao Shi's poem, and Gao Shi is also very happy. This is another poem by Wang Changling. At this time, Wang Zhihuan nasty. He told everyone that if the most beautiful singer doesn't sing my poems, I will never write poems again, and I will worship you as a teacher. Sure enough, the most beautiful geisha began to sing Wang Zhihuan's Liangzhou Ci: "The Yellow River is far above the white clouds, an isolated city, Wan Ren. Why should the flute blame the willow? Spring breeze is not enough. " No matter the poet himself, musicians, scholars and even ordinary people, everyone likes poetry very much. Poets have won social respect, honor and even status with their poems, and the audience's love has also inspired the creators to create better poems.
The imperial examination system began in the Sui Dynasty and was further developed in the Tang Dynasty. Since then, talents have been selected mainly on the basis of examination results rather than status, so that children from poor families have the opportunity to be officials in officialdom. Yan Yu's "Canghua Poetry Review" said: "Or ask why Tang poetry wins our court? Tang studied poetry, so he specialized in it, and the poetry I faced was not as good as that. " This also reflects from the side that the imperial examination system of attaching importance to poetry and selecting literati in Tang Dynasty promoted the creation and research of poetry by literati, which is also an important reason for the prosperity of Tang poetry.
