Ouyang Xiu's Main Achievements

The poetic innovation advocated by Ouyang Xiu is essentially aimed at the style of writing in the Five Dynasties and Kunxi style in the early Song Dynasty, but Ouyang Xiu's literary theory and creative practice are very different from those of retro literary critics since Liu Kai.

Before Ouyang Xiu presided over the literary world, the style of writing represented by Kunxi style was severely criticized. Ouyang Xiu opposed "imperial academy Style" and "Quincy Style".

Ouyang Xiu has a new view on the relationship between literature and Taoism. First of all, Ouyang Xiu believes that Confucianism is closely related to real life. Secondly, Ouyang Xiu pays equal attention to literature and Taoism. In addition, he also believes that the text has an independent nature. ?

This idea of paying equal attention to literature and Taoism has two meanings: one is to regard literature as important as Taoism, and the other is to regard the artistic form of literature as important as ideological content, which undoubtedly greatly improves the status of literature. Liu Kai and others called on Han Yu to pay attention to his own orthodoxy, while Ouyang Xiu paid more attention to inheriting Han Yu's literary tradition.
