Chu Ci is a new poetry style created by Qu Yuan, and it is also the first collection of romantic poetry in the history of Chinese literature. [1] The name "Chu Ci" existed in the early Western Han Dynasty, and was compiled into a collection by Liu Xiangnai. Wang Yi of the Eastern Han Dynasty composed chapters and sentences. It originally collected sixteen poems and poems by Qu Yuan [2] and Song Yu from Chu in the Warring States Period, as well as Xiao Shan, Dongfang Shuo, Wang Bao, Liu Xiang and others from Huainan in the Han Dynasty. Later Wang Yi added his own work "Nine Thoughts", which became seventeen chapters. The whole book is mainly based on Qu Yuan's works, and the other chapters also inherit the form of Qu Yuan's Fu. Because of its use of the literary styles, dialects, rhymes, customs and products of the Chu region (note: today's Hunan and Hubei areas), it has a strong local flavor, hence the name "Chu Ci", which has a profound impact on later generations of poetry.
Reader comments
The emotions expressed by Qu Yuan in the book reminded me of friends in life who stick to their beliefs. Just like Qu Yuan caressing his sword and playing his drum, they did not give in in the face of difficulties and worked hard to pursue their ideals. This book also gave me a deeper understanding of the culture of the Chu region, as if I could feel the customs and customs of that time. I recommend you read it, I believe you will have a different understanding.
