About This Novel
Bai Juyi, courtesy name Letian, was a Jinshi in the 16th year of Zhenyuan. In the 10th year of Yuanhe, he was demoted to Jiangzhou Sima for writing a letter. In his later years, he had a smooth official career and lived in Luoyang. He called himself "Xiangshan Jushi". In terms of creative concepts, Bai Juyi strongly emphasized the popularity and realism of poetry, and at the same time advocated the use of allegory in poetry to supplement current affairs. His poetry theory had an important impact on the poetry of the middle and late Tang Dynasty and even later generations. Bai Juyi's song-style poetry creation has a strong lyrical color based on narrative, which had a great influence at that time and in later generations. This book selects the most representative works from Bai Juyi's poetry collection, provides concise annotations on the words and allusions, and uses the analysis part to clarify the meaning of the whole poem and explain the artistic features, so that readers can understand the poetic meaning.
