by Zhou Yukai
About This Novel
This collection of essays contains the author's single essays on ancient Chinese literature over the past thirty years, ranging from the pre-Qin Dynasty to the Ming and Qing Dynasties and modern times, with the study of Tang and Song literature as the center. The content of the collection of essays can be roughly divided into two categories. The first is the discussion of literary phenomena and literary works, such as the Four Masters of the Early Tang Dynasty, Yuanyou Literati, Jiangxi Poetry School and other literary groups and schools, as well as the song style, six character poems, elegant poems, poems about horses, Bai Zhan style, etc.; The paper covers various literary styles such as poems, lyrics, essays, and poems, with linguistic research as the main feature, and approaches from various angles of aesthetics, hermeneutics, and stylistics. It not only explores "ancient" literary theories, but also strives to reveal the "theories" of ancient literature, such as "landscape is poetry," "the viewer enters the painting," and "war as a metaphor for poetry," and other literary and artistic creation and aesthetic concepts.
