The Eternal Hero: A Biography of Lu You/¿¿¿¿:¿¿¿

Lu You's works primarily encompass two aspects: on one hand, they are filled with grief and indignation, a fervent call to avenge the nation's wrongs, recover lost territories, and liberate the oppressed people; on the other hand, they are leisurely and delicate, savoring the profound flavors of daily life and vividly depicting the intricate nuances of the scenes before him. Patriotic sentiment saturated Lu You's entire being and permeated all his works. Whether he saw a painting of a horse, encountered a few fresh flowers, heard the cry of a wild goose, drank a few cups of wine, or wrote a few lines of cursive calligraphy, his mind would be stirred with thoughts of avenging the national humiliation and erasing its shame. His blood would boil, and this fervor would surge beyond the boundaries of his waking life, flooding even into his dreams. This is a quality found in the poetry collections of no other poet.¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿
