On the differences between li bai and du fu.

There is no substantial difference in ability between the two.

There are Du Fu's poems with a strong sense of rhythm, and Li Bai is a little more free, but you can't say that Li Bai can't make poems with a strong sense of rhythm because of his personality.

In fact, Li Bai and Du Fu are the same people and have the same vision for the future.

What Du Fu has more than Li Bai is the traditional scholar-bureaucrat thought. Share worries for the country and the people.

Du Fu's early poems are beautiful and cheerful.

However, due to the change of An Shi, Du Fu was completely changed. Du Fu became a romantic and thorough realist, and his poetic style became more realistic.

However, Li Bai still lives in his own world with romantic thoughts. He is rich, so even if he sees many things, he is not so worried. Li Bai didn't really feel the pain caused by Anshi Rebellion until his later years, which is reflected in his poems.

If there were no Anshi Rebellion, Du Fu would be similar to Li Bai.

Because of the Anshi Rebellion, Du Fu was realistic and Li Bai was romantic.
