A Brief History of Tang Poetry
About This Novel

The manuscript takes the poet as the classic and the genre as the weft. It not only analyzes the artistic advancement of metrical shaping, but also reveals the social thrust of imperial examinations to select scholars. It completely presents the magnificent epic of Tang poetry from its cocoon to its heyday and then to its new changes.
