Reasons for the emergence of classical poetry in Han Dynasty

The reason for the classicalization of Chinese poetry is the development of China's poetry during the Han and Wei Dynasties, and a new situation has emerged, mainly Yuefu poetry and folk poets' five-character poems. The first thing to say is, of course, the origin of classical poetry, the Book of Songs and Li Sao. The historical position of The Book of Songs must be known to many people. It is the first collection of poems in China, most of which are four-character and repetitive sentences, that is, the difference between different paragraphs lies in the replacement of individual words. This point can be understood by thinking about the recited "Guanju" and "Picking the EU". The Book of Songs not only has a long history, but also has a great age difference between works, from the early Western Zhou Dynasty to the mid-Spring and Autumn Period. After careful calculation, it has actually been four or five hundred years.
