introduce
Li Shangyin (about 8 13- about 858), a native of Yuxi, was born in Fan Nansheng. Wen, also known as "Xiao" with Du Mu, originated from Hanoi, Huaizhou (now Qinyang City, Henan Province) and moved to Xingyang (now Zhengzhou City, Henan Province) in the late Tang Dynasty to write poems.
Li Shangyin is one of the most outstanding poets in the late Tang Dynasty. His poems are ingenious in conception, expressing deep feelings with implicit symbolism, exquisite rhetoric, euphemistic and harmonious rhyme and subtle twists and turns. Li Shangyin longed to return to heaven and earth and urged the Tang Dynasty to revive its ambition. However, by the late Tang Dynasty, his ambition could not be realized.
Li Shangyin is also an outstanding poet in the late Tang Dynasty. His poems are excellent in all aspects, especially the poems with five or seven words. His seven-character poems are even better than Du Fu's in the late Tang Dynasty. His main works are Yaochi, etc.
achievement
There are about 600 poems handed down by Li Shangyin, among which the themes of current politics are directly touched, accounting for a considerable proportion. Li Shangyin's epic has made great achievements.
They are by no means sick moans of "thinking about the past", and they are also different from those poems written by predecessors that send feelings to the past. They take history as a mirror, Chen's politics as a mirror, and the criticism of the times as a supplement, making history-chanting a special form of political poetry.
Characteristics of poetry
Li Shangyin's poetry is unique in the late Tang Dynasty, because he is sentimental and devoted to it. He uses many works to express the feelings of late Tang scholars and their persistence in love, thus creating a new style and a new realm of poetry.
His poems are novel in conception and beautiful in style, especially some love poems and untitled poems, which are lingering and memorable. In addition, Li Shangyin used subtle and hazy expression techniques to the extreme, but some poems were too obscure and puzzling to be solved. There was a saying that "poets always loved Quincy, but only hated that no one wrote Jian Zheng".
