Introduction of Su Shi's major influences
Su Shi made extraordinary achievements in the composition of words, and in terms of the development of a genre itself, Su Shi's historic contribution to words again surpassed that of Su Wen and Su Shi. After Liu Yong, Su Shi carried out a comprehensive reform of the word, and finally broke through the traditional pattern of the word as "Yankee", improved the literary status of the word, and transformed the word from an accessory to music to an independent lyric poetry, which fundamentally changed the direction of the development of the history of the word.
Su Shi's changes to the word were based on his conception of the lexicography of poetry and lyrics as a whole, and his idea of "forming a family of one's own". Since the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties, the word has been regarded as a "small way". Although Liu Yong devoted his life to writing lyrics, and promoted the development of lyrics, he failed to improve the literary status of lyrics.
