李清照（1084—約1155），中国文学史上首屈一指的伟大女作家，南宋著名女词人，被誉为“千古第一才女”。

李清照出生在今天的山东省济南市。父亲李格非是北宋文学家、书法家。与同时代其他社会地位相近的年轻女性相比，她成长在一种相对无拘束的家庭氛围中，在性格塑造和才艺养成上都很自由。

青年时，李清照与丈夫赵明诚有过如诗般的爱情；中年时，他们颠沛流离，看到国家山河破碎。在南下赴任的途中，赵明诚染病身亡。晚年时，李清照的生活充满坎坷，在孤独苦闷中悄然离世。

李清照的词充满了情感与理智，描写了爱情、家国社会、人生沧桑等主题，尽显了她敢爱敢恨、忧国忧民的性格及其豪情壮志，表现出一位爱国词人的崇高品质和一位杰出文学家的远见卓识与卓越创造力。

和羞走，倚门回首，却把青梅嗅。

——《点绛唇·蹴罢秋千》

此情无计可消除，才下眉头，却上心头。

——《一剪梅·红藕香残玉簟秋》

物是人非事事休，欲语泪先流。

——《武陵春·春晚》

莫道不销魂，帘卷西风，人比黄花瘦。

——《醉花阴·薄雾浓云愁永昼》

寻寻觅觅，冷冷清清，凄凄惨惨戚戚。

——《声声慢·寻寻觅觅》

生当作人杰，死亦为鬼雄。

——《夏日绝句》

李清照还通晓金石书画。她与赵明诚合作编写了《金石录》，这是中国最早的金石学目录和研究专著之一。书中，她的评论独树一帜，对推动中国古代文物研究起到了重要作用。李清照独自撰写的《金石录后序》更是一篇极具重要史料价值的文献。

当代著名诗人臧克家曾这样形容李清照：“词苑千载，群芳竞秀，盛开一枝女儿花。”这枝花不但绚烂了中国诗词的整个花季，而且八百多年后再度绽放在太阳系水星之上：1987 年，国际天文学联合会将水星上的第一批15 座环形山分别用人类历史上著名人物的名字来命名，其中包括李清照，这彰显了她的巨大影响力和魅力。
