This term refers to poetry that reflects social realities and major events of a historical period, thus possessing historical value. Some of the poems in "The Book of Songs" are about the realities of its time, which prompted Confucius to exclaim that "'The Book of Songs' enables one to understand society." This means that he viewed "The Book of Songs" as using poetry to reflect history. Han-dynasty scholars stressed the importance of poetry as a means of recording history. Subsequently, Chinese scholars of poetry believed that poetry should reflect reality through aesthetic means so as to provide aesthetic enjoyment, understanding as well as education. The poems of Tang poet Du Fu are called "historical poetry" because they reflected what the country went through during the An Lushan-Shi Siming Rebellion and the author's acute sense of sadness about the misery the country and its people suffered in times of national crisis.

◎杜逢祿山之難,流離隴蜀,畢陳于詩(shī),推見至隱,殆無(wú)遺事,故當(dāng)時(shí)號(hào)為“詩(shī)史”。(孟棨《本事詩(shī)·高逸第三》)
杜甫遭逢安祿山叛亂引發(fā)的災(zāi)難,先后漂泊甘肅、四川一帶,所經(jīng)歷的一切,全都寫在詩(shī)中,后人由此推知發(fā)現(xiàn)(當(dāng)時(shí)歷史事件的)很多隱約細(xì)節(jié),幾乎沒(méi)有什么遺漏,所以當(dāng)時(shí)人稱他的詩(shī)為“詩(shī)史”。
Du Fu fled to the provinces of Gansu and Sichuan to escape turbulences caused by the An Lushan-Shi Siming Rebellion and wrote about his experiences in poems. As his poems gave vivid and detailed accounts of events of the time, they became known as "historical poetry." (Meng Qi: The Story of Poetry)
