The Tang Dynasty was the most glorious period of China's classical poetry, with many famous works. In less than 300 years, there are nearly 50,000 poems and about 50 or 60 famous poets. Among the bright stars in the Tang Dynasty, there were two brightest stars, namely Li Bai and Du Fu.
Li Bai: There are more than 0/000 existing poems/kloc-,including it is hard to go, Dream of Climbing Mount Tianmu and Collection of Rivers.
Du Fu: a great realistic poet in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. Representative works include Three Officials (Xin 'an Official, Shi Haoguan, Tongguan Official) and Three Farewells (Newly Married, Resigned, Homeless). He is concerned about the country and the people and has a noble personality. He wrote more than 1500 poems in his life, and his poetic skills were exquisite, so he was called "poet saint" by later gods.
Song ci
Ci is a new poetic style in the late Tang Dynasty. The sentences are long and short, and they sing in tune. Therefore, many famous ci-poetry titles are the names of Qu-poetry, such as Man Jianghong, Nian Nujiao and Shuidiao Tou.
The famous poet is Su Shi, the pioneer of the Northern Song Dynasty's uninhibited school. His works include Niannujiao Chibi Nostalgia, No Return to One River, and Romantic Figures through the Ages. Li Qingzhao, a poetess at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty and the beginning of the Southern Song Dynasty, wrote her early work "Like a Dream" and her late work "Summer Jueju".
Obviously, the style of Li Qingzhao's ci has changed obviously, because the author lived in the Northern Song Dynasty in the early stage and lived comfortably, so his ci style was graceful and restrained. In the later period, the Northern Song Dynasty perished, the country perished, the Southern Song Dynasty was partial, the life was turbulent, the ci style changed greatly, and it was heroic.
Yuan zaju
Drama in Yuan Dynasty developed unprecedentedly, among which zaju was the most prominent, and a number of outstanding playwrights such as Guan Hanqing, Bai Pu, Ma Zhiyuan and Zheng Guangzu emerged. Among them, Guan Hanqing is the most famous, and his most famous work is Dou Eyuan.
Ming and Qing novels
