Features: This book aims to elaborate on the development of poetry over these eight centuries in a certain aspect, or what might be termed a certain sense of the history of medieval poetry. Here, the term "medieval" refers to the period from the Han Dynasty to the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, drawing on the definitions of "medieval" used in Liu Shipei's History of Medieval Chinese Literature, Wang Yao's Discussions on the History of Medieval Chinese Literature, and Lu Kanru's Chronology of Medieval Chinese Literature. It can also be referred to as the Han, Wei, Six Dynasties, or the Han, Wei, Jin, and Southern and Northern Dynasties period.
