A Gathering of Eminent Scholars, A Display of Magnificent Works
In the treasure trove of ancient Chinese culture, the "Ci" form of poetry is like a radiant pearl, shining with dazzling brilliance and cherished by people for millennia. For the Chinese, the exquisite and intricate Ci poems, along with the cultural essence they carry, have been deeply ingrained in our blood. The grandeur of Su Dongpo's "The River Eastward Flows," the subtlety of Liu Yong's "Willows on the Bank, Dawn Wind, Lingering Moon," the vigor of Xin Qiji's "Golden Halberds and Steel Swords, Conquering Ten Thousand Miles Like a Tiger," and the poignant beauty of Li Qingzhao's "Perhaps the Green Has Fattened, the Red Has Thinned" have all become part of our national spirit. Whenever we immerse ourselves in these splendid verses, our restless hearts in the chaotic mortal world find immediate peace, as if we are cleansed spiritually by traditional culture and refined art.
To help readers systematically understand and appreciate this invaluable legacy, Jilin People's Publishing House proudly presents the series The Biographies of Famous Ci Poets in Different Schools Through Chinese History. This series is edited by Fei Zhengang, a distinguished professor and renowned scholar from the Department of Chinese at Peking University. The ancient Chinese Ci poems are categorized by their schools, and meticulously annotated and explained by celebrated professors from the Department of Chinese at Peking University. These annotations and commentaries serve as a guiding light, guiding us in appreciating the masterpieces of past generations of poets. The critiques by the renowned scholars and the outstanding works of each school complement each other, truly adding the finishing touch to the artistry of the verses.
The authors, editors, and editorial staff of the publishing house are all alumni of the Department of Chinese at Peking University, making this book a special gift to celebrate the centennial of Peking University.
