情詩(shī)不同于情書(shū),它會(huì)給真情添加詩(shī)意,運(yùn)用適當(dāng)題材創(chuàng)作而成,一般為詩(shī)體,用來(lái)在情人之間傳達(dá)愛(ài)意。情詩(shī)是世界文學(xué)的濫觴,中國(guó)文學(xué)由《詩(shī)經(jīng)》開(kāi)始,官方文學(xué)中始有了情詩(shī)的記載。從時(shí)間來(lái)看,情詩(shī)分為古典情詩(shī)、現(xiàn)代情詩(shī)、當(dāng)代情詩(shī)。從地域和語(yǔ)言看,有中國(guó)情詩(shī),歐美情詩(shī),希臘和雅典情詩(shī),希伯來(lái)情詩(shī)等等。
