 Liu Zongyuan
In many respects, Liu Zongyuan’s desires resonate with the Modernist movement, where poets followed classical models and rallied around the dictum that “poetry should be as well-written as prose”.
James J. Liu’s terms for the two sides of this split are “naturalization” and “barbarization”, or in other words, whether the translation uses its language to challenge or accommodate to the tradition of poetry in that language.
The definition of Liu Zongyuan as rebel or classicist, then, is in the end the definition of how to translate his poetry.

 CHAPTER III
Liu Yuxi was of the opinion that "A Speech on Heaven" by Liu Zongyuan had not yet completely elucidated all aspects of the relationship between Heaven and man; hence he wrote "A Treatise on Heaven" to discuss this relationship more deeply.
Liu Zongyuan's emphasis upon the difference between Heaven and man and between social laws and natural regulations--as well as his emphasis upon the subject of humankind itself which can grasp and make use of the natural laws--was reasonable.
Liu Yuxi also objected to Han Yu's theory, while he praised Liu Zongyuan's concept that Heaven and man predominate in their respective spheres, that Heaven and man can make use of each other, and that man, the most wise, should necessarily predominate over the unconscious Heaven.

 Neo-Confucian Philosophy [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
Liu is perhaps more of a bridging figure between the early and later Tang intellectual worlds, but he still expressed a number of highly consistent Neo-Confucian themes and did so with a style that links him forward to the Song masters.
For instance, Liu, unlike many earlier Tang Confucians, was interested in finding what he thought to be the principles expounded in the classic texts rather than a convoluted, arcane if compendious commentarial exegesis.
Further, Liu passionately believed that the authentic Dao was to be found in antiquity, by which he meant the true ideals of the Confucian teachings of the early sages.
