Another method is to study the poet's personal correspondence and diaries. For example, Emily Dickinson's letters and her private writings can provide clues to the stories behind her many mysterious and profound poems. Her reclusive life and her inner thoughts, which she sometimes shared in these personal writings, can help us understand why she wrote certain lines in her poems and what emotions or ideas she was trying to express.
Sure. Take 'The Raven' by Edgar Allan Poe. The little - known story is that Poe was in a rather melancholic state when he wrote it. He was dealing with the loss of his beloved wife. The poem's dark and brooding atmosphere was a reflection of his own inner turmoil at that time.

Du Fu was a famous poet of the Tang Dynasty, known as the "Sage of Poetry". His works have been passed down to this day, and many famous sentences are still praised by later generations. The following are some of Du Fu's famous poems:
1 Climbing high: The wind is strong, the sky is high, the apes howl, the white birds fly back to the clear sand of the island. Endless trees fall and the endless Yangtze River rolls down. I'm always a guest in autumn, sad for thousands of miles. I've been sick for a hundred years, and I'm alone on the stage. I'm in trouble, bitter resentment, frosty hair, downcast hair, I've just stopped drinking.
Wang Yue: How about Dai Zongfu? the green of Qilu has not yet faded. The Bell of Destiny's divine beauty, Yin and Yang, separated the twilight and dawn. I'm a bird that flies back to the city. When I reach the top of the mountain, I can see how small the mountains are.
3. Spring View: The country is broken, the mountains and rivers are deep in the city in spring. I am moved by the tears of the flowers, and hate to part with the birds, startled. Three months of beacon fire, letters from home worth ten thousand taels of gold. my white hair is even shorter, I can't help but want to wear a hairpin.
4 Beauty's Journey: Yang Hua snow falls, covering the white apple bluebird flying to the red scarf. Be careful not to approach the Prime Minister's anger!
5th wedding farewell: Jinse for no reason, 50 strings, one string, one column, thinking of China. Zhuang Sheng dreams of butterflies, looking at the emperor's spring heart with a cuckoo. The moon on the vast sea, the pearl has tears, the sun is warm in the blue field, the jade produces smoke. This feeling can wait to be remembered, but at that time it was already lost.
These poems not only expressed Du Fu's deep understanding of nature and life, but also showed that his open-mindedness, sadness, homesickness, nostalgia and other emotions had become an important part of Chinese culture.
