Magnificence is indeed the style and feature of poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The poetic style of the Southern Dynasties and even the early Tang Dynasty was mostly elegant and delicate, with exquisite words and lacking vitality, which was sublated by poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Some poems in the middle and late Tang Dynasty after the prosperous Tang Dynasty are simple and powerless, such as Dali Ten Talents, Bai Juyi, Jia Dao and Yao He, which lack grandeur. Some tend to be vigorous, such as Han Yu, but due to the deliberate pursuit of adventure and lack of naturalness, bold and unrestrained poetry is indeed a prominent feature that distinguishes poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty from poetry in the early Tang Dynasty and the middle and late Tang Dynasty. Yan Yu most admired the poems of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and Li Bai and Du Fu were the most admired in the poems of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Canglang Poetry Review praised the legendary rare birds and animals of Du Li and other poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. (Big bird) breaks the sea, elephant crosses the river ",which is praising its majesty. Yan Yu also stressed that poetry should be written naturally, without revealing axe marks, that is, the so-called "antelope hanging in the horn, without trace to be found" (Cang Shi Hua Bian), and thought that poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty was outstanding in this respect. Yan Yu strongly advocated the poetic style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, not only because the poems of the prosperous Tang Dynasty were really well written, but also because of its historical background. Jiangxi Poetry School, which had the greatest influence in Song Dynasty, took some poems of Du Fu in his later years and those of Han Yu and Meng Jiao as research objects. Thin, hard, energetic, lacking natural beauty. Yongjia Siling Poetry School, which was popular in the late Southern Song Dynasty, adopted Jia Dao and Yao He, and was narrow-minded and lacked grandeur. Yan Yu strongly advocated that poetry should be based on the method of prospering the Tang Dynasty, aiming at criticizing the contemporary poetic style and making up for its shortcomings.
Judging from the overall characteristics and main tendencies, the poems in the prosperous Tang Dynasty can be described as magnificent. Generally speaking, most poems in the prosperous Tang Dynasty are vigorous, but some poems, especially the pastoral poems of Wang Wei and Meng Haoran, are natural but not magnificent. After all, such poems are only a few in the poetry circle of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Meteorology in the prosperous Tang Dynasty is a macroscopic generalization.
There are two reasons for the formation of meteorology in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. First, the lofty sentiments and ambitions of the poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Faced with the situation of strong national strength and prosperous economy and culture at that time, poets were generally open-minded and high-spirited and hoped to make contributions. They like to describe the magnificent mountains and rivers of the motherland, the magnificent scenery on the border, the fierce fighting and their lofty aspirations. They pursue the magnificent poetic scene of "Whale and the Blue Sea" (in Du Fu's "The Play is Six Poems"). This formed the poetic style of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The second is to inherit and carry forward the excellent poetic tradition of the previous generation. Poets in the prosperous Tang Dynasty tried to sweep away the ups and downs of the poetic style from the Southern Dynasties to the early Tang Dynasty, paid attention to the study of ancient Chinese, Wei and Jin poems and Yuefu poems, and paid attention to carrying forward the beautiful and vigorous poetic style in the Jian 'an era at the end of Han Dynasty. Judging from the inheritance relationship of poetry itself, the vigorous characteristics of Tang poetry are derived from this.
Some poems in the prosperous Tang Dynasty fully reflected the times of the prosperous Tang Empire, but the weather in the prosperous Tang Dynasty was different from that in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The prosperous Tang Dynasty in the history of literature refers to Xuanzong and Suzong in the Tang Dynasty, which lasted about fifty years. In the late Xuanzong period, political corruption led to the decline of the national situation, and the chaos of peace and prosperity in history led to social unrest and people's livelihood. However, the late Tang poetry represented by Du Fu is still full of majestic characteristics. For example, Du Fu's poem "Looking at Yue" was written in the early Tang Dynasty, which of course shows his grand ambition of "reaching the peak and the other mountains all appear dwarfs under the sky.". . His poem "Climbing the Ci 'en Temple Tower with Gentlemen" written on the eve of An Shi Rebellion shows the precariousness of the Tang Dynasty empire and the anxiety of the poet, but it is still vigorous and powerful. In his later years, Du Fu wrote "Climbing the Building" and "Ascending the Mountain", which showed the decline of the Tang Dynasty invaded by foreigners and the poet's dying mood, and the realm was still magnificent. There are many such examples. Du Fu's poems of this kind in his later years are often praised by poetic theorists in the Ming and Qing Dynasties as masterpieces of describing the weather in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Many poems written by Li Bai in his later years after An Shi Rebellion also have bold style. Great changes have taken place in the middle and late Tang Dynasty, but the mentality formed by Li, Du and others in the early stage has not disappeared, and the beautiful and provocative poetic style they pursued has not disappeared, so they can still write many provocative poems.
The Tang Dynasty was the golden age in the history of China's poetry, and its heyday was the peak in the history of Tang poetry. It is magnificent and has high aesthetic value.
Voice of the prosperous Tang dynasty
It refers to the period from Kaiyuan to Dali in the Tang Dynasty, which is the heyday of Tang poetry. Tang poetry is divided into several stages, including famous poets Wang Wei, Meng Haoran, Li Bai, Du Fu, Gao Shi and Cen Can. During the reign of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty in Kaiyuan and Tianbao, the society in the Tang Dynasty was highly prosperous and full of artistic flavor until the "An Shi Rebellion" broke out. After 100 years of preparation and brewing, Tang poetry finally reached its peak. Although, in the early, prosperous, middle and late Tang Dynasty, the prosperous Tang Dynasty is the shortest, but its achievements are the most brilliant. During this period, not only the great poet Li Bai appeared, but also a large number of talented and outstanding poets emerged. During this period, many poems that have been circulated for thousands of years have been produced. Passionate and unrestrained, with a strong romantic temperament, is the main feature of poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty; And even a quiet and beautiful work is full of life and brilliance. This is the "Voice of the Prosperous Tang Dynasty" respected by later generations.
