杜甫是我国文学史上最伟大的现实主义诗人。杜甫所处的时代是唐帝国由盛而衰的一个急剧转变的时代。尖锐而复杂的阶级矛盾、民族矛盾以及统治阶级内部的矛盾,不仅造成人民的深重灾难和国家的严重危机,也把杜甫卷入了生活的底层。这就使他有可能描绘出那个苦难时代人民生活的图画。他的诗不仅具有丰富的社会内容,鲜明的时代特色和强烈的政治倾向,而且充溢着热爱祖国,热爱人民,不惜自我牺牲的崇高精神,表现出高度的人民性。 Du Fu is the greatest realistic poet in the history of Chinese literature. The era in which Du Fu lived was a rapidly changing era of the decline and prosperity of the Tang Empire. Sharp and complex class conflicts, ethnic conflicts and conflicts within the ruling class not only caused the people’s deep disaster and the country’s serious crisis, but also involved Du Fu in the bottom of their lives. This made it possible for him to paint a picture of the life of the people in that time of misery. His poems not only have rich social content, distinctive characteristics of the times and strong political tendency, but also show the high popularity of the people with the lofty spirit of loving the motherland, loving the people and sacrificing themselves.
