Let s take Song Ci as an example to talk about the literary achievements of the Song Dynasty

Su Shi (January 8, 1037 - August 24, 1101), the word Zizhan, also known as Hezhong, the number of Tieguandao, Dongpo layman, known as Su Dongpo, Su Xian. Han nationality, Meizhou Meishan (now Meishan City, Sichuan Province), ancestral home in Luancheng, Hebei Province, Northern Song Dynasty writer, calligrapher, painter.

In the second year of Jiayou (1057), Su Shi Jinshi and the first. Song Shenzong served in Fengxiang, Hangzhou, Mizhou, Xuzhou, Huzhou and other places. In the third year of Yuanfeng (1080), he was demoted to the deputy envoy of the Huangzhou regiment because of the "Wutai Poetry Case".

After Song Zhezong ascended the throne, he served as a bachelor of Hanlin, a bachelor of waiting, and a scholar of the Ministry of Rites, and knew Hangzhou, Yingzhou, Yangzhou, Dingzhou and other places. Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty was granted amnesty and returned to the north, but died of illness in Changzhou on the way. When Song Gaozong posthumously presented the Taishi, he was nicknamed "Wenzhong".

Su Shi was a literary leader in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, and made high achievements in poetry, poetry, prose, calligraphy, and painting. Its writing is unbridled; His poems have a wide range of themes, are fresh and vigorous, make good use of exaggerated metaphors, and have a unique style, and are called "Su Huang" together with Huang Tingjian; The words are open and open-minded, and Xin Qiji is the same representative of the bold faction, and is called "Su Xin";

His prose writings are rich and unrestrained, and he is called "Ou Su" together with Ouyang Xiu, and is one of the "Eight Great Masters of the Tang and Song Dynasties". Su Shi is also good at writing, one of the "Four Song Families"; He is especially good at painting, especially ink bamboo, strange stones, dead wood, etc. There are "Dongpo Seven Episodes", "Dongpo Yi Biography", "Dongpo Yuefu" and so on.

The most accomplished literary style of the Song Dynasty was Song Ci. Sock beams.

Song Ci is a kind of poetry, including Yan music, folk songs, close poems and rhythms, with a high degree of quality, rhythmic beauty and strong life atmosphere, also known as songs, music, movements, long and short sentences, poems, piano fun, etc. It began in the Tang Dynasty, was stereotyped in the Five Dynasties, and flourished in the Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty is a dazzling giant diamond in the crown of ancient Chinese literature, and it is a fragrant and gorgeous garden in the Lang Garden of ancient literature.

It is a simple and easy to tell and a variety of wind gods, competing with Tang poetry, fighting with Yuan Qu, and has always been called a double unique with Tang poetry, all representing the prosperity of a generation of literature, and later there is a book of the same name "Song Ci". Words and poems are closely related, and words are divided into two major genres: bold and graceful. The representative figures of Song Ci mainly include Su Shi, Liu Yong, and the famous female lyricist Li Qingzhao.

<>In ancient Chinese literature, who has a more important position compared with Tang poetry and Song poetry? Of course, Tang Shi's achievements are much higher, not a little higher. Why?

The authors of Tang poems are large and rich, and the content of the works involves various fields such as politics, economy, military, diplomacy, and religion at that time. In the Song Dynasty, because the dynasty was relatively short, there were not so many authors and works, and the content was relatively lacking in extensive sociality; Poetry has always been regarded as a relatively orthodox "elegant language" in China, with a deep traditional foundation, and by the Tang Dynasty it had reached the peak state of a collection. The Song Ci was different, it was initially despised by some orthodox literati at the time, so the Song Ci began to appear with the image of "holding the pipa and half covering the face".

But after all, it was a very tolerant era for literati, and later it was also promoted by a large number of high-status literati such as Yan Shu and Su Shi, and finally developed, and also produced a large number of excellent lyricists, Su Shi, Yan Shu, Yan Jidao, Zhou Bangyan, Zhang Xiaoxiang, Liu Chenweng, Jiang Kui, Li Qingzhao, Zhang Yan, Xin Qiji, Zhu Shuzhen, etc., including the famous Ouyang Xiu, Zhu Xi, Sima Guang and others have written lyrics. But despite this, the substance of the words is far less profound than that of the poems, which is certain, and the content is far less extensive than the poems; Due to the difference in starting point and form of communication, poetry and words are also destined to have a higher ideological realm than words. The so-called "poetry and words" can directly express their intentions, whip the disadvantages of the times, and point out the country; At the beginning, the words were for the purpose of entertainment and sung by artists as the form of expression, just like the current pop songs; But after all, it is very limited.

Tang poetry is far superior to Song poetry in terms of scale, bearing, thought, rhythm, form, and content. Song Ci is more delicate and touching in rhetoric and writing, and he competes with Tang poetry. If Song Ci did not have the formal scale of Liu Yong, Zhou Bangyan, Su Shi, Xin Qiji, etc., the Song Ci would never be able to compete with Tang poetry.

After all, the main body of Song Ci is the Wanyue School, and although the Bold School is better than the Wanyue School in terms of form and content, the scale and quantity cannot be compared after all. The Wanyue school basically writes about the love of children, which is the root of the final defeat of Song poetry to Tang poetry. And not all the literati of the Song Dynasty devoted themselves to writing lyrics, they had a group of people who mainly wrote poems, and only regarded writing lyrics as a game, such as Ouyang Xiu, Yan Shu, etc., and there were also people who were inspired to write poems all their lives, such as Lu You, Yang Wanli, etc.

Only Xin Qiji, Jiang Kui, Zhou Bangyan, Qin Guan and other main lyrics are mainly written by the graceful school. Great writers like Su Shi and Huang Tingjian naturally regard writing poetry as their main career. This has resulted in a significant reduction in the number of lyricists and the amount of effort involved.

Tang poetry has a heavy status, has a good propaganda significance, can promote the development of Chinese literature, and can also play a very good role, so the status is more important.

It is Tang poetry, because the number of Tang poems is relatively large, and there are many excellent poets in the Tang Dynasty, which have a particularly serious impact on later generations.

The status of Tang poetry is more important, because Tang poetry is ranked first, and Tang poetry is many years earlier than Song poetry.

Tang poetry has a more important status, and Tang poetry has developed rapidly in the history of Chinese literature, leaving many excellent works and excellent poets.

I think the status of Tang poetry is more important, because Tang poetry has left a deep impression on people.

Song Ci ; The representative figures of Song Ci mainly include Su Shi, Xin Qiji (representative lyricist of the Haofang faction), Liu Yong, and Li Qingzhao (representative lyricist of the Wanyue faction).

A Chinese literary genre that prevailed in the Song Dynasty, Song Ci is one of the new styles of poetry relative to ancient style poetry, marking the highest achievement of Song Dynasty literature. Song words and sentences are long and short, which is easy to sing. Because it is the lyrics of the ensemble, it is also called the lyrics of the song, the music house, the movement, the long and short sentences, the poems, the piano and so on.

It began in the Liang Dynasty, formed in the Tang Dynasty and flourished in the Song Dynasty. According to the "Old Tang Book": "Since the Kaiyuan Dynasty (the year of Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty), singers have used the songs of Huyili Lane.

Song Ci is the glorious pearl in the crown of ancient Chinese literature, and in the Lang Garden of ancient Chinese literature, she is a fragrant and gorgeous garden. With her charm of purple and red, she competes with Tang poetry and Yuan Qu, and has always been known as a double masterpiece with Tang poetry, both representing the prosperity of a generation of literature. Later, there was a book of the same name, "Song Ci".

The "Complete Song Ci" contains more than 1,330 lyrics that have been handed down to this day, nearly 20,000 poems, and from this number we can infer the grand occasion of creation at that time. Although the origin of the word is early, the peak of the development of the word was in the Song Dynasty, so later generations regarded the word as the most representative literature of the Song Dynasty, and the poetry of the Tang Dynasty, and there was the so-called "Tang poetry, Song Ci".

Hope it helps.

The literature of the Song Dynasty mainly covers the words, poems, prose, scripts, opera scripts, etc. of the Song Dynasty, among which the creation of words is the highest, followed by poetry and prose, and then the script. The literary works of the Song Dynasty inherited the style of the late Tang Dynasty in the early Northern Song Dynasty, and the words were used in flashy words, often used for singing and rewarding. As Wang Yuyan paid attention to the people's livelihood and the imperial court paid more attention to Confucianism, literary writers began to pay attention to the didactic function of Confucianism, but their achievements were not high.

It was not until the second ancient literature movement led by Ouyang Xiu that the literati created in plain language, and the content mostly reflected the disadvantages of life, and the elegance and vulgarity were appreciated, and literary creation entered a peak period. The literature of the Song Dynasty has an important and special position in the history of China's literary development, and it is in a stage of inheriting the past and opening up the future, that is, it is in the field of Chinese literature"Ya"to"Vulgar"of the period of transformation.
