Abstract: Peng Ruishu, a literary celebrity of the middle of Sichuan Province in the Qing Dynasty, spent all his life writing on Du Fu to honor the personality, characteristic, and ideas of the great poet, sympathizing with him in his misfortune. He learnt the poetic writing methods from Du Fu, and inherited and developed Du’s spirit of “poetic history” in his works. This spirit pays attention to the reality, and reflects the sufferings of people. Peng’s poems are vigorous and heroic, and obtain the quintessence of Du’s. In a word, the deep exploration of Peng’s poems not only helps us know Du Fu’s influence on the later generations, but also benefits the further research of poetic thought of Peng.

Key words: Du Fu, Peng Ruishu, honoring Du Fu, learning from Du Fu
