“历史”与“史实”的偏差可以让人读出写史之人的思想，同样的，总结宋人对前朝——唐朝的印象，也可以使我们在回顾唐朝历史的同时，看见宋人文化心态上的一些特点。本文通过对宋诗关涉到唐朝的作品的归类和总结，从宋人关注特别多的“盛唐(贞观之治、开元、天宝的盛世)”、“肃宗、宪宗中兴”、“晚唐诗”等切入，并分析了宋人将“唐”与 “汉”、“晋”对举时呈现出的侧重，试图还原宋人眼中的唐朝。本文认为，宋人对唐朝的关注是与诗人所处的现实政治紧密结合的，这与宋人重实际、好批评的精神密切相关。

This article sums-up then sorts out Song poems which referred to Tang dynasty. It is not surprising that people in Song dynasty pay more attention to "the high Tang era","the revival of Tang dynasty"and "the late Tang dynasty".The analysis also shows that in most Song poems,"Tang dynasty" together used with "Han dynasty"differed to that used with "Jin dynasty".These all indicate that people in Song dynasty interested in Tang dynasty is because, in some means, the facts of Tang dynasty had something similar with current affairs. Realism and criticism are the two main reasons of why people in Song dynasty had such impression of Tang dynasty.
