作为“一代之文学”的唐诗在中国文学史上有极高的地位,有唐一代的悼亡诗也蔚为大观。纵观唐代悼亡诗,其外部特征有二:其一是多集中于中晚唐,其二是多为居丧期间所作。这都与当时的政治背景、诗风、诗体自身发展规律及社会风气密切相关。 Tang poetry, as the “generation literature”, has a very high status in the history of Chinese literature. Looking at the Tang Dynasty’s mourning poems, there are two external characteristics: one is more concentrated in the late Tang Dynasty, and the second is mostly made during mourning. All of these are closely related to the political background, poetic style, the law of development of poetry and the social atmosphere.
