Qu Yuan, who lived in the era of the King of Chu, was the founder and representative writer of Chu Ci. Later generations speculated on Li Sao's date of birth according to two sentences: "She was a loyal person in Meng Xi, but a noble person was a gentle person." . For information about Qu Yuan's life, see Historical Records, Biographies of Qu Yuan, Biographies of Jia Sheng, Historical Records, Family of Chu, and New Preface to Liu Xiang. The surname of Qu Mi is the same as that of the King of Chu, and his son thinks that his surname is Qu, and he takes the grain of Qu.

When you go out, you have to meet guests and deal with princes. Later, the doctor was in charge of the three surnames of the royal family, namely Zhao, Qu and Jing, "making their genealogy, introducing their virtues and making them great scholars" (Wang Yi's Songs of the South). Qu Yuan's illness made you ugly, greedy and flattering, and evil songs harmed many people, which the founder could not tolerate. Sad and thoughtful, he began to write Li Sao.

As the first great poet in the history of China literature, Qu Yuan is not only a monument spanning time and space, but also a rich and complex carrier of "mode". His greatness lies not in his practice of never leaving Chu until his death, but in the fact that he provided us with an enterprising life model, which includes: 1 Loyal to the monarch and patriotic. Second, don't move independently. Third, search up and down. Fourth, good practices are universal.

His works include Li Sao, Tian Wen, Evocation, Nine Songs and Nine Chapters. The artistic features are mainly reflected in the rich romanticism. In addition to bold exaggeration and strange imagination, the most prominent is his "metaphor of vanilla beauty" His artistic characteristics are also reflected in the formation of the literary tradition of "expressing ambition and anger".
