5. Du Fu (7 12-770) was one of the greatest poets in the Tang Dynasty. When he was young, he traveled around, liked music and painting, and also wrote poems. But he was not famous in his lifetime; In fact, he thinks he is a failure. It was not until 1 1 century that his poetic talent was recognized by the world. Sometimes people call him a "historical poet" or "a mirror of Du Fu's era" because his poems depict many contemporary practical problems, including the suffering of the poor and the corruption of the rich!

He also wrote about his own experiences, including the loss of his son. Du Fu also became famous for his good friend Li Bai (70 1-762), who was also a great poet at that time. They met in 744, but they became good friends despite their great differences in personality! They even write poems to each other.

6. Li Bai was born the son of a wealthy businessman and grew up in his hometown of Sichuan. Because he didn't succeed in officialdom like other young people of his time and couldn't become a court official, he began to travel around the world, keeping company with poetry, during which he created thousands of excellent works. Most of his poems use concise and clear language and irregular forms. If Du Fu is a realistic poet, then Li Bai is a romantic poet. His description of nature and human beings is as profound as his personal experience. Friendship, characters' situation and the pleasure of drinking are his favorite creative themes. Legend has it that he once fell into the river to catch the reflection of the bright moon and almost drowned!
