After the Han Dynasty,the emperor gradually became an ancient social tradition.Tang Cheng system still follows the same old rules.In the imperial power inheritance system based on the patriarchal clan system,the kings were given heavy political responsibility from birth because of their unique ancestry and origin.On the one hand,they were unable to enter the official career through the way of learning to be a good official in order to actively realize their own value of life,and on the other hand,they could not retreat from the world like Taoist scholars and protect themselves in the vicious political struggle.Save yourself.The king can only choose to attach himself to the emperor,as an extension and branch of imperial power,to maintain the stability of imperial rule.This inseparable relationship with politics makes the principal literary activities of the kings have to revolve around politics,while the government officials,emperors and other literati constitute the main groups of literary writers they have limited contact with.This paper begins with the clarification of the changes of the relevant policies of the kings in the Tang Dynasty and the fate of the kings in the Tang Dynasty.Through the analysis of the contacts and works between the kings and the three major groups of writers,the author understands the trajectory of their activities in the history of literature,and finally defines and analyzes the status and influence of the kings in the history of literature as a whole.Tang Dynasty,as the key point of the two historical stages of China's middle and modern times,studies the literary activities in which the kings participated directly and indirectly,which can provide a relatively objective reference for the relationship between literary creation and political activities.The thesis consists of three parts:introduction,main body and conclusion.The introduction mainly defines research paradigms,objects and key concepts.The main part is composed of five chapters.The first chapter mainly explores the changes of the imperial policy and the historical fate of the kings in the Tang Dynasty,and clarifies the historical facts about the evolution of the imperial power and autocratic imperial power in the Tang Dynasty.From the second chapter to the fourth chapter,we discuss the main literary groups in order.The second chapter is the literary interaction between kings and officials in the Tang Dynasty.As a group of writers directly under the feudal system of the Tang Dynasty,Wang Fu-guan's literary creation under the influence of Kings occupied an important position in the early Tang literary history.The main works of the two exchanges mainly include the imperial edict,the imperial edict,the imperial edict the imperial edict and so on.The third chapter is about the literary interaction and interaction between kings and emperors in the Tang Dynasty.The emperor's political control and oppression over the kings made their main literary activities revolve around the cemperor.Therefore,the literary interaction between the kings and emperors of the Tang Dynasty occupies the majority of the former,and these works can best represent their literary achievements and literary characteristics.Presumably,these poems are elegant and neat,while official documents are not standard.The fourth chapter is the fifth chapter of the Tang Dynasty kings and other literati literary exchanges.Thanks to the open and tolerant political environment of the Tang Dynasty,as well as the social atmosphere of good literati,the kings of the Tang Dynasty had many opportunities to communicate with ordinary literati,and in this case,the excellent works were born like clouds,and there were many famous works.In terms of the subject matter,there are generally poems in reply to dry criticism,prefaces for banquets,Elegies and inscriptions on tablets.Because of the various sources of the author,the content of his works is so diverse that his style is not uniform.The fifth chapter is the recognition and analysis of the role and status of kings in the Tang Dynasty.By sorting out literary and historical materials,this paper argues that the kings of the Tang Dynasty were not only the creators and participants of literary activities,but also the organizers and leaders of many literary gatherings and Book Compilation activities.Like many literati in Tang Dynasty,they enriched and enriched the content of Tang Dynasty literature with their own literary practice and promoted the development of Tang Dynasty literature.In addition,the kings in the Tang Dynasty were also the providers of literary themes in the Tang Dynasty and even later generations.In the existing Tang Dynasty poetry,literature and novels,there are many songs of the Tang Dynasty king anecdotes,literary and artistic talent,scenic buildings,great achievements for the theme of worksGenerally speaking,the kings of the Tang Dynasty have played a more positive role in the development of literature in the Tang Dynasty,which should be valued and affirmed by researchers.In addition,some literary works related to the kings,such as the author of Jiangnan Fengliguinian,the "Rongwang" in Tianmen Street,the authenticity of Li Bi and Wang Lianju,and the falsehood contained in the "Xiaoguan of the King" must be examined and differentiated in light of historical facts.
