His life, like the whole country, was devastated by the An Lushan Rebellion of 755, and the last 15 years of his life were a time of almost constant unrest.

Of his poetic writing, nearly fifteen hundred poems written by Du Fu have been handed down over the ages. He has been called Poet-Historian and the Poet-Sage by Chinese critics, while the range of his work has allowed him to be introduced to Western readers as "the Chinese Virgil Horace Ovid Shakespeare ...

    Bian Zhilin (1910¡Ð2000), one of the most original voices in 20thcentury Chinese poetry, was known for his modern sensibility and intense lyrical appeal.

Note that like much traditional Chinese poetry, these are song lyrics, meant to be performed to a traditional tune. "Courtesan" is a loose term with many meanings in English, but clearly this woman is no low street prostitute. In what way does the poet's opening comparisons resemble the Western tradition of comparing the beloved to an angel? what images suggest that the courtesan has been abandoned by her lover? "Wine games" are drinking games, often involving the recitation or writing of poetry.

11. Service Or Reclusion: Tu Fu's Confucian Dilemma - Articles - House Of Hermits -
    China s greatest poet tu fu suffered the Confucian dilemma of service versus reclusionand seclusion.  
    http://www.hermitary.com/articles/tu_fu.html
    
    Extractions: HOME Articles Book Reviews Features ARTICLES: HOUSE OF HERMITS T This central dilemma is especially relevant to the adherent of Confucianism in ancient and medieval China, with its emphasis on the scholar or "gentleman" acculturated into a lifetime of loyalty and service to the emperor and state, but also charged with a strong sense of ethics. In the Analects , Confucius writes: "What I call a great minister is one who will only serve the emperor when it can be done without infringement of the Way, and as soon as this is impossible, resigns." (11.23) "Best of all is to withdraw from one's generation; next to withdraw to another land; next to leave because of a look; next to leave because of a word." (14.39). And this: "When good governance prevails in the empire, [the scholar] is in evidence. When it is without good governance, he withdraws." (8.13) There are other such interpretive passages throughout Confucianism. But it was the compelling ethics that haunted Tu Fu, as much as his own private irresolution. Early Years After this clear embarrassment to his family, Tu Fu took a share of his wealth and began a series of travels and explorations that he described as "more than eight years of lively freedom." Afterwards he became a "temp," seeking out literary employments in the court or of a court or provincial official as he could. His Confucianism animated his keen sense of duty and obligation to support the emperor, but Tu Fu was too smart to not see the decadence and corruption of the central government. These years of dissolution taught him the pleasure of the wine cup, the beauty of poetry, and a grudging admiration of eremiticism. This latter he learned from the somewhat distorted examples of Li Po and Kao Shih, celebrants of aesthetics and cynicism.

David Hinton Author: Tu Fu Publisher: Anvil Format: Paperback ISBN: Pages: Price: Order: Tu Fu (712-770 A.D.) is China's greatest classical poet. He radically altered the poetry of the High T'ang period; in addition to making formal innovations in language and structure, he extended the range of acceptable subject matter to include all aspects of public and private experience, thus becoming in the words of the translator David Hinton, "the first complete poetic sensibility in Chinese literature" This edition of `The Selected Poems of Tu Fu' is the most comprehensive selection of his work available in English. David Hinton conveys the ambiguity and density of the originals in his translations, while retaining a scholar's devotion to the text. The poems are complemented by the translator's introduction, notes to the poems and biography of Tu Fu. Together these form a fascinating portrait of a uniquely sensitive spirit during one of the most tumultuous periods in Chinese history.

    Extractions: The Chinese poet, Tu Fu biography A biography of Tu Fu, one of China's most revered poets, who's eloquent poetry chronicles life in China's tumultuous 8th century. Arguably, the master of this type of writing was Tu Fu. Born to a literary family in the Hunan Province of China in 712, his family’s social position assured Tu Fu a traditional Confucian education. Perhaps through intrigue, or because of his radical views, Tu Fu failed an Imperial test in 736, which, if he had passed, would have guaranteed him a civil service post and a life of relative security. After failing the test, he traveled throughout China and earned a reputation as a humanistic poet well grounded in reality. It was during this time that he met his idol, the poet Li Po, a Taoist who celebrated the virtues of love, wine, and nature. The two traveled together for a while and Tu Fu dabbled in Taoism, but was unable to balance the world he lived in with the disassociation of Taoism, and soon returned to the capital and Confucianism. Tu Fu was well regarded during the 740s, even though he held no official position, had no money, and failed a second Imperial examination. In the mid 750s he sought and attained Imperial recognition in the form of a minor appointment, married, and acquired some land.
