2. Author's brief introduction: Qu Ping (about 339 BC ~ about 278 BC) was the first great patriotic poet in the history of China literature. The original word, commonly known as Qu Yuan, is also a formal name from the cloud, with a general spirit. Han nationality, a native of Chu Danyang at the end of the Warring States Period, is a descendant of Qu Xian, the son of Chu Wuwang Xiong Tong. Although Qu Yuan was loyal to Chu Huaiwang, he was repeatedly rejected. After the death of King Huai, Xiang Wang was exiled because he listened to slanderers, and finally died in the Miluo River. Qu Yuan is one of the greatest romantic poets in China, and also the earliest known famous poet and world cultural celebrity in China. He initiated the style of "Chu Ci" and the tradition of "vanilla beauty". There are 25 pieces of his works, the titles of which are: Nine Songs, Evocation of Soul, Tian Wen, Li Sao, Nine Chapters, Buju and Fisherman. His representative works include Li Sao and Nine Songs.
3. Introduction to Li Sao: Li Sao is the masterpiece of Qu Yuan, a famous poet in the Warring States Period, and the longest romantic political lyric in the history of ancient Chinese poetry. The poet described his life experience, moral character and ideal, expressed the anguish and contradiction that he was slandered to death, rebuked the fatuity of the king of Chu, the madness of the villain group and the ineffective governance of Japan, and showed the poet's fighting spirit of adhering to the ideal of "beautiful politics", attacking the dark reality, not colluding with evil forces and his patriotic enthusiasm to death.
4. Creation reason:? Sima Qian in Historical Records Qu Yuan? The biography quoted Liu An's Biography of Li Sao as saying: "Qu Ping's sick king happened to listen to it, but flattered it to cover it up, and the evil songs harmed the public and could not be tolerated, so he wrote Li Sao with sad Zen"; He also said: "Qu Yuan went straight on the right path, exhausted loyalty and wisdom to serve the monarch and made the world poor. Believe and see doubt, be loyal and slander, can you have no complaints? Qu Ping's work "Li Sao" is self-blaming. " Qu Yuan's "sadness" and resentment are closely related to the political reality of Chu State. Li Sao is a political lyric poem written by him according to the political reality of Chu State and his own injustice. Because the twists and turns describe the poet's life experience, thoughts and circumstances, some people regard it as an image record of Qu Yuan's life course and call it the poet's autobiography. ?
