The Tang Dynasty (AD 6 18-907) was the heyday of the development of classical poetry in China. There are 50~60 famous poets with unique styles, exceeding the sum of all previous dynasties. This is a feast of poetry in the history of China.
History of Tang poetry development;
1, early Tang poetry:
The poems of Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong and the literati around him are gorgeous and soft. Shangguan Tiqi was wrong and charming. Only a few people, such as Wei Zhi, Wang Ji and Wang Fanzhi, can extricate themselves from the secular world. Their main contribution is the completion of this law. Shen, Song and Du are called the founders of five-character poems and seven-character poems by later generations.
2. Tang poetry:
On the basis of "Shen" and "Song", the poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty further combined the correct direction with the perfect form. From Kaiyuan of Xuanzong to Tianbao, poetry flourished in an all-round way, and a large number of famous artists appeared. Their works are exquisite and beautiful, vigorous and fresh, with fantastic images and harmonious rhythm, showing the artistic characteristics of the times.
3. Poetry in the Middle Tang Dynasty:
At the beginning of the middle Tang Dynasty, poetry was not prosperous. The works of Liu Changqing and Wang Wei, ten talented poets in Dali, are exquisite and elegant, but their contents are superficial. Lu Lun and Li Yi have some desolate frontier poems with bold artistic conception.
4. Late Tang poetry:
The poetic style of the late Tang and Five Dynasties became more and more delicate. Although there have been writers and works with great influence in the history of literature, they generally lack the broad spirit and muddy realm in the middle of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Outstanding poets Li Shangyin and Du Mu made unique contributions to the art of poetry.
