Elaborate on the historical nature of Du Fu’s poetry

Du Fu's poems are called "the history of poetry". However, as a "history of poetry", Du Shi's poetry is not an objective narrative, using poetic style to write history. Instead, it deeply reflects reality and expresses the author's mood through a unique style. Pu Qilong of the Qing Dynasty said: "Shaoling's poems reflect a person's temperament, and the affairs of the three dynasties will be reflected in him." ("Reading Du Xinjie·Shaoling Chronicle Poetry Catalog") Du Fu's poems Some of them involve major issues related to politics, economy, military and people's lives in the three dynasties of Xuanzong, Suzong and Daizong, but the poet's true feelings are permeated everywhere. For example, Du Fu's two masterpieces in his middle age, "Five Hundred Words of Empathy from Beijing to Fengxian County" and "Northern Expedition", contain lyricism, narrative, travel notes, reasoning, observation of nature, and social understanding. The revelation of contradictions includes inner conflicts, political ambitions and opinions, personal experiences and family misfortunes, disasters for the country and people, and hopes for the future. These two long poems contain so much rich content. The author's moods fluctuate and his language runs wildly, proving that he is keenly and strongly sensitive to various natural and social phenomena in this unfortunate era. Such poems are self-narrations of the poet's life and heart, and are also portraits of the times and society. The fate of an individual is closely related to the fate of the country and the people, and the two have also reached a high degree of artistic integration. Other poems such as "Ascending the Pagoda of Ci'en Temple with the Lords" and "Aijiangtou" are shorter in length, but they also have this characteristic.

Since the late Tianbao period, Du Fu has written a large number of political poems on current affairs, whether they are stating political opinions, such as "Washing Soldiers and Horses", "You Feelings" written in Zizhou; or exposing the debauchery and cruelty of the rulers , such as "Beauty's Journey", one of "Two Poems of Remembering the Past", and "Three Quatrains" written in Yun'an; or allegorical and satirical, such as "Phoenix

Phoenix Terrace" and "Sick Orange" , "Withered Palm", "Guests"; or sympathy and concern for the poor people, such as "The Song of Thatched Cottage Broken by the Autumn Wind" and "Wu Lang Again"; they are all combined with personal emotions and facts. There are also many long novels, some of which record the country's major events over the past ten years, such as "Kui Fu Shu Huai" and "Chang Zai"; some describe local events, such as "Thatched Cottage" and "Enter Hengzhou"; some recall the past. , such as "Zhuang You" and "Remembering"; and even more like what Pu Qilong said, "The world is still the body" ("Reading Du Xinjie·Reading Du Outline"), all contain strong lyrical elements.

War themes occupy a considerable amount in Du's poems. Du Fu held different attitudes towards wars of different natures. He was opposed to the imperial court's excessive use of military force and consumption of manpower and material resources, such as "The Troops and Chariots", "Remembering the Heart" written in Kuizhou, and "Going to the Foot of the Houyuan Mountain Again"; he supported quelling rebellions and resisting foreign aggression, such as "Two Poems on Watching the Western Soldiers Pass by Guanzhong" and "Guarding the Soldiers" written in the early days of the Anshi Rebellion, as well as "Sui Mu" written during the Tibetan invasion. What these poems condemn and praise are very clear. There are also poems about war, both praising and condemning. The famous two sets of poems "Leaving the Fortress Before" and "Leaving the Fortress Behind" repeatedly narrate the changes in the mood of the soldiers during their military service. In fact, they reflect the poet's different views on war from different perspectives. Both sets of poems praise the heroic scenes on the battlefield, how the soldiers are good at fighting, brave enough to sacrifice, and achieve victory; they also condemn the king's endless expansion of frontiers and the arrogance and extravagance of the general, which makes the achievements lose their positive significance. Both sets of poems summarize the unfortunate fate of countless heroic soldiers through the confession of a soldier. Another example is "Three Officials" and "Three Farewells", which more specifically express the author's inner conflict. On the road to Luoyang, Du Fu saw brutal police officers forcibly conscripting underage boys and lonely old people into the army. He filed accusations on behalf of these people and condemned the officers. However, when he thought about the lack of strong men and the huge enemy at hand, he changed his tune and tried his best to say a few words of comfort or encouragement to the conscripted people. Xian Yushu of the Yuan Dynasty wrote Du Fu's "Army Chariots". Du Fu wrote many poems praising nature. The objects he sings about are often related to both himself and current events. Poetry talks and poetry reviews of the past dynasties have made many discussions on Du Shili's high degree of "situation blending". However, Du Fu's poems not only have a high degree of blending of scenes, but also a blend of emotions, scenes and current events. When describing scenes and expressing emotions, the author rarely leaves reality. For example, "Spring Hope" written when he was trapped in the occupied Chang'an and "Jianmen" written when he entered Shu are the most representative ones. This kind of poems, Du Fu became more successful in his later years, such as the five-rhythm "Guest Pavilion", "On the River", "Jianghan", the seven-rhythm "Denglou", "Sufu", "Ge Night", "Eight Poems on the Rise of Autumn", etc. They are all popular masterpieces that blend scenes and current events.
