First, the ancient prose movement initiated by Liu Han Han Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan lived in the middle Tang Dynasty. After the Anshi Rebellion, the national strength of the Tang Dynasty was greatly damaged, but after recuperation, the social economy was still developed and restored. In this context, Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan, then literary leaders, clearly put forward the idea of advocating ancient prose.
What do they use? Carrying the road? 、? Ming Dow? As the core of this literary creation theory, it is believed that writers should first improve their moral cultivation, stand upright and have a peaceful mind, so that the works they write will have true feelings. Besides, what else? Make a statement? 、? Do you have to say it? Pioneering spirit. In the literary world at that time, beautiful and obscure parallel prose was more popular in form than in content, which Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan were not optimistic about and tried to change.
In order to publicize their literary ideas, they not only set an example, but also created a large number of inspiring and approachable works, and paid attention to rewarding and cultivating young literati, which made the movement more and more powerful.
On the level of literary creation, Han Yu closely combined the literary talent of the article with practical significance. He left some representative works, such as Shi Shuo, Ma Shuo, Sacrifice to Twelve Lang, Mourning, Answering Liu, Preface to Send Meng Dongye, etc. Some of these articles are reasonable and eloquent, while others are sincere and touching.
Liu Zongyuan's literary thought is very close to Han Yu's, and his snake catchers, Cobalt Pool and Feudalism are also masterpieces that have been passed down through the ages.
During the mid-Tang Dynasty, these writers who were determined to reform created a large number of unpretentious and touching prose works, which swept away the splendid style of writing since the Six Dynasties, and the literary trend of thought at that time also changed.
Third, the generation of bosom friends in the Northern Song Dynasty, a group of literary giants headed by Su Shi held different literary concepts from the previous dynasties. Liu Han? Echo from afar. So once future generations mention it? Ancient prose movement? , in fact? Ancient prose movement in Tang and Song Dynasties? Eight people with the highest achievements in the ancient prose movement, the abbreviation of "",is also called by later generations? Eight masters in Tang and Song Dynasties? .
Among them, Su Shi's admiration or worship for Han Yu is the most obvious. He made a special trip to write a eulogy for Chaozhou Hanwengong Temple. Words? It is posthumous title of Han Yu, so Han Wengong Temple is a temple dedicated to Han Yu.
Is it familiar to future generations? The decline of Wen Qi's eight generations? This article is from Su Shi. Su Shi and others not only praised Han Yu, but also went further along the road pioneered by Liu Han in literary creation. Su Shi alone left famous essays such as Ce Duan, Hou Lun, Chao Cuo Lun and Fu on the Red Wall.
Later generations compare the achievements of Han Yu and Su Shi in the field of prose, collectively referred to as? Han Hai Su Chao? . It means that their articles have their own majestic momentum, and reading their articles is like a storm, which makes people involuntarily admire.
