1, with rich images and bold imagination. It is the basic law of art to reflect social life through artistic images. Poetry sings about life and expresses sincere feelings with concrete images.
2. The forms and styles of Tang poetry are colorful and innovative. It not only inherited the tradition of Han and Wei folk songs and Yuefu, but also greatly developed the singing style. It not only inherited the five-character or seven-character ancient poems of the previous generation, but also developed into a long and huge system of narrative romance; It not only expanded the use of five-character and seven-character styles, but also created modern poems with particularly beautiful and neat styles.
3. There are various forms of Tang poetry. There are mainly five-character poems and seven-character poems in Tang Dynasty. There are also two kinds of modern poems, one is called quatrains, and the other is called metrical poems. Quatrains and metrical poems are five words and seven words respectively. Therefore, there are basically six basic forms of Tang poetry: five-character archaic poetry, seven-character archaic poetry, five-character quatrains, seven-character quatrains, five-character rhythmic poems and seven-character rhythmic poems.
Classical poetry has a wide range of requirements for rhyme and meter: in a poem, the number of sentences can be more or less, the chapters can be long or short, and the rhyme can be changed. Modern poetry has strict requirements on rhyme and meter: the number of sentences in a poem is limited, that is, four-line quatrains and eight-line meter poems. The words used in each poem have certain rules, and the rhyme cannot be changed; Rhyme also requires that the middle four sentences become antithesis.
The style of ancient poetry is handed down from the previous generation, so it is also called ancient style. Modern poetry has strict rules, so some people call it metrical poetry.
Reasons for the prosperity of Tang poetry:
1. In the social development of the Tang Dynasty, many restrictive factors were solved, and some political and economic changes made great progress. More importantly, the situation of "elite separatist politics" has basically ended, which has greatly liberated people's thoughts in life practice, thus broadening their horizons for poetry creation, one of the forms of cultural life, and gaining a "source of living water" for poetry art.
2. Due to the general improvement of economy, it provides material conditions and a wide source for the prosperity of literature.
3. The accumulation of previous generation literature; It was well inherited, so it laid a solid foundation for Tang poetry. Based on the cultural heritage of predecessors, it is possible for poets in the Tang Dynasty to be eclectic, learn from others, bring forth the old and bring forth the new, and push China's poetry culture to a new peak.
