"The characteristic of Jin Shengtan's anthology is not only the selection but also the evaluation, paying more attention to comments and appreciation.
Jin Shengtan pioneered the "seven-law decomposition method" of Tang poetry to comment on Tang poetry. He divided Tang poetry into "pre-interpretation" and "post-interpretation", analyzing the ups and downs hidden behind the poems, "which may enable future generations to see not only the words of Tang poetry, but also the poetry of Tang poetry."
Among the poets of the Tang Dynasty, Jin Shengtan had a special liking for Du Fu.
How obsessed is Jin Shengtan with Du Shi? When he went to the houses of relatives and friends to eat and drink, he would always take one with him, and he would review it at any time while half drunk and half awake.
He enjoyed being a roundworm in Du Fu's belly. Selecting and annotating Du Fu's poems was like being possessed by his soul, infusing his full talent and talent. "
