In the winter of 759 AD, Du Fu set out from Longyou with his family to avoid the "Anshi Rebellion". (now southern Gansu Province) went to Sichuan and came to Chengdu. In the spring of 760, with the help of friends, a small house was built by the picturesque Huanhua River in the western suburbs of Chengdu. In the spring of 76 1 year, the hut was built and called "Chengdu Caotang".
Du Fu finally lived a quiet life in Chengdu Caotang. But it didn't last long. In autumn, there was a strong wind, and Du Fu's hut was actually broken by the wind. The thatch on the roof was blown about by the strong wind. The wind is very strong, and some grass is blown high by the wind and entangled in the branches. Some grass drifted far away and fell into the stream; Others have drifted across the river.
In 765, Yanwu died of illness, and Du Fu had to say goodbye to his family and his family. Two years later, he lived in Jing and Hunan of the Three Gorges. After Du Fu left Chengdu, the thatched cottage was destroyed. During the Great Calendar Year of the Tang Dynasty (165438+October 766-65438+February 779), most of the thatched cottages were used as private houses by the concubine (Mrs. Huan Hua) who was then the ambassador of Sichuan Province to Cui Ning.
1952, Du Fu Caotang was completely renovated and officially opened to the public. 1955, Du Fu Memorial Hall was established.
Extended information The Du Fu Cottage in Chengdu, Sichuan was originally built by Du Fu. Wei Zhuang, a poet in the middle of Sichuan Province, discovered the former site of the Cottage and rebuilt it to preserve it. Du Fu's Cottage was rebuilt many times in the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, and the largest two were being rebuilt.
It was in the thirteenth year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty (1500) and the sixteenth year of Jiaqing in Qing Dynasty (18 1 1) that the scale and layout of Du Fu's thatched cottage were basically laid, and it evolved into a museum that commemorates the ancestral temple pattern and the poet's former residence style. There are more than 60 poems in Du Fu Tomb and Du Gong Temple.
As a teenager, Du Fu traveled to wuyue and Zhao Qi successively, during which he also visited Luoyang. After thirty-five, I came first and last in Chang 'an. Later, he presented gifts to the emperor and presented them to the nobles. The frustration of officialdom witnessed the extravagance and social crisis of the upper class in the Tang Dynasty. In the 14th year of Tianbao (755), the Anshi Rebellion broke out, Tongguan fell, and Du Fu moved to many places.
In the second year of Gan Yuan (759), Du Fu abandoned his official position and went to Sichuan. Although he fled the war and lived a relatively stable life, he still cared about the whole life and the affairs of the country. He created famous works such as Up the Mountain, Spring Hope, Northern Expedition, Three Officials and Three Farewells. Although Du Fu is a realistic poet, he also has a wild and unruly side. It is not difficult to see Du Fu's heroism and dry clouds from his masterpiece Song of Drinking Eight Immortals.
The core of Du Fu's thought is the Confucian thought of benevolent government, and he has the great wish of "making the monarch Yao and Shun superior, and then making the customs pure". Although Du Fu was not famous during his lifetime, his fame spread far and wide, which had a far-reaching impact on China literature and Japanese literature. About 65,438+0,500 poems of Du Fu have been preserved, most of which are collected by Du Gongbu.
In the winter of the fifth year of Dali (770), Du Fu died at the age of 59. Du Fu's influence on China's classical poetry is far-reaching, and he is called "the sage of poetry" by later generations, and his poems are called "the history of poetry". Later generations called him Du Shiyi and Du Gongbu, and also called him Du Shaoling and Du Caotang.
