I. Tao Yuanming
Tao Yuanming was the first pastoral poet in China, and later generations called him:? The ancestor of the eternal pastoral, the hermit? The famous poem is also our catchy sentence:? Picking chrysanthemums under the east fence, leisurely seeing Nanshan? In just two sentences, it depicts a beautiful pastoral scenery and a leisurely life mood. In addition, Tao Yuanming's Peach Blossom Garden is also famous, which depicts a noisy place far away from the world and a beautiful place of rural life, which makes people envy. In real life, retiring to the countryside is what Tao Yuanming often does. Some people say that he can't realize his political ambitions at all, so he uses retirement to the countryside as an excuse. Others say that Tao Yuanming retired to the countryside because he didn't like the sinister officialdom. Anyway, Tao Yuanming's seclusion in the countryside left us many well-known poems.
Second, Meng Haoran
Meng Haoran's life is also gloomy, so he pinned his feelings on mountains and rivers. After all, there is no scholar at the age of forty, so I travel around. In Meng Haoran's poems, we began to recite from childhood: I woke up easily in this spring morning, and birds were singing everywhere, but now I remember that night, that storm, and I wonder how many flowers were broken. Meng Haoran's poems are often five-character quatrains, but they always describe scenes and landscapes in a few simple sentences, so Meng Haoran is also a rising star of pastoral poets.
Third, Wang Wei
Wang Wei is a representative figure of pastoral poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. I am familiar with the poem: when people are idle, osmanthus flowers fall, when the night is quiet and the mountains are empty in spring, when the birds are startled at the moon, they are in the spring stream. Wang Wei's poetry and Xie Lingyun belong to the same school, creating another artistic conception of landscape poetry. The quietness in his poems is unified, and the artistic conception is beautiful beyond words.
