Du Fu

Recorded name: 杜甫

Du Fu wrote about Tang-dynasty cities, war, historic sites, family, friends, and natural scenes in regulated verse, narrative poems, and long autobiographical poems, placing personal feeling within broad historical and social settings.

Original Chinese introduction

杜甫以律诗、叙事诗和长篇自述诗写下唐代城市、战争、古迹、家人、朋友与自然景物,并把个人感受放进广阔的历史和社会背景中。

His poetry addresses conscription, displacement, and cities amid war, as well as the pursuit of office, travel, friends and family, and life at his thatched cottage. Works such as Spring View, Ballad of the War Chariots, Five Hundred Words on My Journey from the Capital to Fengxian, and Song of My Thatched Roof Ruined by the Autumn Wind link personal experience to the conditions of their time in different forms.

Original Chinese context

他的诗既写战乱中的征役、离散与城市,也写求仕、行旅、亲友和草堂生活。《春望》《兵车行》《自京赴奉先县咏怀五百字》《茅屋为秋风所破歌》等作品,以不同形式连接个人经历与时代处境。

CALCULATION

How the score is calculated

Q = 10^(M/2) − 1; Lᵢ = aᵢ × Qᵢ; L = Σ Lᵢ; S = 2 × log₁₀(1 + L).

M is an outcome’s assessed magnitude and a is the person’s allocated share. A standalone score is only a per-item reference; the attributed light from distinct contributions is what can be combined.

BOUNDARIES NOT COUNTED

Not included in this score

These subjects are recorded as exclusions and are not silently treated as zero or as part of the included outcomes.

Song-, Yuan-, and Ming-dynasty selections and annotations, calligraphy, modern critical editions, and translations

宋元明选注、书法、现代批校与翻译

Reason These are independent labors by editors, annotators, scribes, translators, and preserving institutions. They are only conditions through which the works survive and do not add a separate personal outcome for Du Fu.

Original Chinese reason

这些属于编辑、注家、书写者、译者和保存机构的独立劳动;只作为作品得以流传的条件,不增列杜甫个人成果。

Fu, prose, and other unverified works

赋、散文及其他未核作品

Reason Fu, prose, court-commissioned poems on paintings, and fragments beyond the four main poetry groups still require verification and are not included in this estimate.

Original Chinese reason

四个主要诗歌组之外的赋、散文、题画应制与残篇仍待核实,尚未纳入此次估分。

Complete poem-by-poem review of the full Autumn Meditations and Eight Poems on Ancient Sites sequences and the war-poetry corpus

《秋兴八首》《咏怀古迹》全组与战争诗群的完整逐诗核读

Reason Representative texts, translations, and close readings are currently available, but complete critical texts, chronology, and annotations are still needed to delimit the poetry groups and their relationship to contemporaneous poets.

Original Chinese reason

当前有代表文本、译文和细读,但仍需完整批校文本、编年和注释来限定组诗范围及与同时代诗人的关系。

The specific roles of friendship poems, family members, construction of the thatched cottage, and early compilers

友情诗、家庭成员、草堂营建与早期编集者的具体角色

Reason Existing materials provide only some poems and relationship clues; they do not yet permit item-by-item determination of the boundaries among people, labor, and version transmission.

Original Chinese reason

现有材料只给出部分诗篇和关系线索,尚未能逐项确定人物、劳动与版本传递的边界。

The overall later literary, national, and moral narratives of ‘poet-historian’ and ‘poet-sage’

“诗史”“诗圣”及后世文学、国家和道德叙事总影响

Reason These are reception-history labels or later institutional uses; they cannot replace locatable works, forms, or transmission labor.

Original Chinese reason

这些是接受史标签或后世制度使用,不能代替可定位作品、形式或传递劳动。
