Reading Notes on Introduction to Tang Poetry: Why Poetic Sages Appeared in Tang Dynasty

? Poetry is mentioned in "On Tang Poetry: Why there are so many great poets in Tang Dynasty". We all speak highly of Tang poetry, and it is recognized that Tang poetry is a pearl in the history of China poetry. Why is this? First of all, the Tang Dynasty was a "poetic dynasty". Everyone, from aristocrats to civilians, writes poems. The more poets there are, the more poems there are. Secondly, the Tang Dynasty worshipped poets, and the poems of famous poets were widely circulated at that time. Moreover, the literati in the Tang Dynasty practiced the saying of "reading thousands of books and traveling on Wan Li Road". The books they read are not only Confucian classics, but also books, Buddhism, Taoism, calligraphy and painting, singing and dancing. In our current words, quality education has been well implemented. And a trip to Wan Li Road. At that time, all the scholars had the experience of reading and roaming, and they were able to go deep into the society, make friends and broaden their horizons. In this way, the intellectuals in the Tang Dynasty were free in personality, so they were less bound to write poems and could give full play to their talents. So I really want to travel to the Tang Dynasty and see their lives. The second chapter mentions that "the most beautiful poems are written after being drunk"? As can be seen from the poet's poems, they pour elegant taste into wine, pin their beautiful spirit on wine, and the poet pours all his joys and sorrows into wine. These drunkards left, but the good poems stayed. Later, some of the lives of poets in the Tang Dynasty were described in the form of stories. They didn't look tired and comfortable, and the natural and fluent language made me finish the book with great interest. Moreover, in the description of the poet, poetry is also displayed. In these Tang poems, the poet showed various states of life, showed grandeur and broadness, and showed freedom and openness. Therefore, when we read Tang poetry now, we often see a lively and original life, either brilliant or lonely, or official or retired. Although time and space are separated by thousands of years, their joys and sorrows are still with us, and we can still draw rich nutrients from Tang poetry and nourish our hearts.
