Wei Shi·guan Canghai
by (qing Dynasty) Written By Shen Deqian And Edited By Da Xianyu
About This Novel
Shen Deqian's selection and evaluation of the "Wei Poems" constructs a framework of Cao Wei poetry that is "based on style and teaching of poetry." He affirmed the artistic value of Wei poetry's "quality but not slang, straightness but not wildness" and incorporated it into the Confucian ethical framework. These standards deeply influenced the development of poetics in the Qing Dynasty. From a contemporary perspective, Wei poetry is not only the source of Tang poetry, but also an important source of "realism" and "humanistic spirit" in Chinese poetry. Its value goes beyond Shen Deqian's own comments and is an important hub for understanding the tradition of Chinese poetry. In a word, Wei poetry has completed the transformation of five-character poetry from narrative to lyrical poetry, and has an important status.
