The enlightenment education of traditional Chinese people mostly started with ancient poetry. When we were babbling and learning the language, ancient poetry was infiltrated into our cultural blood. The clear breeze and bright moonlit nights, the evening wandering up the stairs, the ringing of the bells of ancient temples in the wilderness, and the small gardens filled with fallen flowers all create the common cultural nostalgia of the Chinese people. The words, which may be beautiful or powerful, or dilute or profound, shine with brilliance, penetrate the smoke and dust of history, and are recited by generations of people.
This book is compiled by Mr. Chen Yinchi, director of the Chinese Department of Fudan University. It identifies and selects a total of 263 ancient poems with beautiful diction and touching people's hearts, annotates and appreciates them, hoping to become the best platform for viewing the vast sea of classical poems.
The appreciation text after each poem is not in the form of a series of lectures, nor does it seek to provide a comprehensive analysis. It only looks for the touching points in the poem and expresses our feelings. I hope that through this book, readers may have a preliminary intuitive understanding of the entire history of ancient Chinese poetry, and at the same time, they can read the most popular poems in history that are truly worth remembering forever.

I especially like the girl in the poem "The Quiet Girl". She is beautiful and playful, making people feel very cute. The young man in the poem is also very interesting. His naivety and sincerity towards the girl make people laugh. This poem allows me to see the innocent love of the ancients, which is really touching. In short, this is a book worth reading, which can make you feel the charm of ancient Chinese poetry.
