National power was strong in the Tang Dynasty.During this period,economy was developed,culture was booming,and the poetry also developed to its peak.Obsession and dedication to the poetry of Tang people made the poetry develop rapidly.In addition to the development of the forms,skills and creative ways of poetry,many new topics were added to the original types.There is a kind of poetry that is very interesting in life among the newly added poetry types in the Tang Dynasty.It specially records the process of making friends and looking for friends among literati.It mostly describes the experience of looking for friends and the environment and landscape of the place where the friends are located.It is generally called "looking for lost poetry".The content is that literati in the Tang Dynasty go out to visit friends on holidays or other leisure days when they are out,then he wrote poems to record the facts.This is a kind of topic that can only be found in Tang poetry,it is very novel although it is few,whereas it has the features of the age,cultural connotation and artistic value.From the view of literature,it can be regarded as a highly developed product of Tang poetry,which reflects the expansion of the subject range of Tang poetry,the broadening of the field of expression,the refinement of writing and the deepening of thought.It also reflects the downward movement of poets’ artistic concerns,the sinking of creative focus,and the secularization and humanization of works since the middle and late Tang Dynasty.The authors of the poems are mostly grass-roots civil servants,monks and Taoists priest in the Tang Dynasty.There are several foundations: the first one is the enrichment of social life of the literati in the Tang Dynasty and the expansion of their communication;the second is the continuous development,deepening and sinking of poetry creation from the writing history,ideal,frontier fortress,boudoir and palace in the early and prosperous periods of Tang Dynasty to the daily life and psychological state of literati in the middle and late Tang Dynasty.Under these two trends,varieties of daily life themes appear in the poetry.Poems that record the social communication of literati,which are called friendship poems are a large category,but the looking for lost poetry are written about the communication between the poets and others,reflecting the living conditions and interpersonal relationships of different types of people.Not only that,this kind of poems also write more about the experience of going out to visit friends,the natural scenery and living environment he saw also intersected with travel poems and landscape poems.The temples,Taoist temples and capital towns that frequently appeared in poems are closely related to the development of Buddhism,Taoism and the daily life of literati in Tang Dynasty in cities like Changan and Luoyang.Therefore,it is a work with multiple themes such as friendship poetry,landscape poetry and travel poetry.It has multiple connotations and aspects in art.It is the product of the deep combination of Tang poetry and social life,reflecting the living and psychological state of the literati in the Tang Dynasty living in leisure,seclusion and traveling on holidays,the change of the poets group and the poetry creation mechanism,and the deepening and expansion trend of the theme content and artistic expression of Tang poetry in the middle and late Tang Dynasty.Because of its few works in the early and prosperous Tang Dynasty,a large number and high achievements in the middle and late Tang Dynasty,strictly speaking,it should be regarded as one of the progress and achievements of poetry in the middle and late Tang Dynasty,not generally attributed to the whole Tang Dynasty.This kind of poetry belongs to the category of making friends poetry,but it is different from general making friends poetry,although it is belong to looking for lost poetry,but it aimed at lost.In addition,it integrates religious thoughts and the poet’s life feelings in different periods,it links the poetry with religious culture and literati life,which is very unique from thought and art.Revealing these uniqueness is a deepening of the study of Tang poetry and the broaden of exploration,which is very meaningful.
