Gong Zizhen-a figure who really broke the decadent situation of traditional literature since the middle of Qing Dynasty and created a modern literary atmosphere.

Gong Zizhen was the last thinker and writer in China in ancient times and the first in modern times. He is an outstanding figure who pioneered the atmosphere in the history of modern thought and literature. His thoughts and literary creation have opened up the situation and paved the way for the development of modern thoughts and literature. Therefore, he became an important enlightenment thinker in modern times and a progressive writer who broke the decadent situation of traditional literature, and played an important role in the development of China's ancient literature and modern literature.

Gong Zizhen's literary creation presents an unprecedented new look and opens a new chapter in modern literature. Gong Zizhen thinks that literature must be useful. He said, "On sanctification, we should give priority to usefulness", "We should not seek the beauty of politics, words and literary talent" ("Born in the same year, please ask Tang and Liu to worship Buddha ……"). It is necessary to point out that Confucianism, politics and poetry have the same purpose. He thinks that poetry, like the function of history, is criticizing social history, and both articles and poems are related to history. He believes that the Six Classics is the ancestor of the history of Zhou. The Book of Songs is collected and sorted by historians. "The poet's fingers are a tributary of this group's history" (On the occasion of B and C). Therefore, the purpose of choosing poems to write history is to "enjoy people and win them, but fight for them" and criticize social history. Therefore, he regards his poems as "discussion" or "discussion". "Nobles discuss with each other and take care of each other, so don't make a discussion about the world" ("Miscellaneous Poems", written in the capital in spring and summer, four times out of ten); Comments on "An's words are in accordance with the Han system, and poetry becomes stone" (Night Straight). From this poetic point of view, he believes that the motivation of poetry creation is caused by "external environment", that is, real life. "The external environment overlaps, like the wind blowing water, everything is in one article" (with Jiang Jushi's reading notes), but it has to be otherwise. Like writing history, the creative method should use historical materials (Send Xu Xu Xu). Gong Zizhen's poems are consistent with his poetics. He broke the silence of the poetry circle since the middle of Qing Dynasty, rarely described the natural scenery simply, but always focused on the realistic political and social situation, expressed his feelings and discussed it vertically and horizontally. His poems are full of social and historical contents, and are the poems of a historian and politician. He began to chronicle poems at the age of 15, and by the age of 47, he had 27 volumes of poems. He treasures his few works very much. "Hou Wen Duan Mian listens to high music, less rigorous and not polished"; "Young people are so sad and happy that they cry for no reason." (self-care chores). Although these works, which are "precise and strict" and "every sentence is true", have been lost, they are "hurting the time" and "scolding the bureaucracy" at that time and are regarded as "great" by ordinary scholars. Therefore, he gave up poetry several times.
