Origin Story
唐代大诗人杜甫，一生漂泊，但他始终没有忘记自己的诗歌理想。他从先秦诸子百家汲取养分，从汉魏诗歌中汲取精华，最终形成了自己独特的诗歌风格。他的诗歌，既有对现实的关注，也有对理想的追求，既有对家国的热爱，也有对人生的思考。他的诗歌，一脉相承，既是时代精神的体现，又是个人情感的流露。后世诗人，无不受到他的影响，他的诗歌，成为中华文化宝库中一颗璀璨的明珠。
Du Fu, a great poet of the Tang Dynasty, wandered all his life, but he never forgot his poetic ideals. He drew nourishment from the Hundred Schools of thought of the pre-Qin period, and absorbed the essence of Han and Wei poetry, ultimately forming his own unique poetic style. His poems reflect both a concern for reality and a pursuit of ideals, both a love for his country and a reflection on life. His poetry, in an unbroken line, is both a reflection of the spirit of the times and an outpouring of personal emotion. Later poets were all influenced by him, and his poetry became a shining pearl in the treasure trove of Chinese culture.
