ABSTRACT

Cao Cao, a prominent military strategist and politician during the late Han and Three Kingdoms periods, rose to prominence in the northern region amidst intense competition, achieving significant success. Additionally, he was recognized for his literary prowess, embodying the spirit of Han Yuefu poetry in his works. Through his writings, Cao Cao depicted contemporary social issues with passionate and tragic emotions using simple language and vivid expression techniques. His most notable artistic achievement is Yuefu poetry, which set a new literary trend. While historical evaluations of Cao Cao often focus on his political and military endeavors, this article approaches his legacy from a literary perspective, analyzing his Yuefu poetry through the lens of literary thought and historical research methods to uncover the ideological implications, contributions to literary development, and influence on modern society.
