Tang and Song poetry, beginning with literary elegance, harmonizing with rhythm, and remaining true to sentiment. Although different historical backgrounds and social environments shaped the distinct characteristics and styles of Tang and Song poetry, and also created the unique styles of great poets from different periods, the patriotic spirit of Chinese scholars, their sense of responsibility for the world, and their upright and noble character have remained constant throughout thousands of years of Chinese intellectual life. Appreciating the pinnacle of Tang and Song poetry and understanding the grand style of Tang and Song literati reveals the aesthetic pursuits and values of the Chinese people.
