Features: This book inherits the spirit of refining from the original "Three Hundred Poems" by selecting pieces with a focus on excellence and pursuing a harmonious and natural artistic essence. It meticulously selects Song Dynasty Ci poems according to aesthetic standards of the 1990s, while avoiding deliberate trends of novelty or familiarity. It also includes some uniquely fresh and elegant works selected by the annotators. The book features 102 poets and 308 Ci poems. In terms of arrangement, it breaks the outdated tradition of starting with emperors and ending with women, organizing the poems chronologically.
