Features: From the author's aesthetic tendencies and the aesthetic characteristics of the works, it primarily reflects the pursuit of sublime beauty and the creation of magnificent artistic scenes. This is particularly evident in the poetry and prose describing the Yangtze Three Gorges, the Goddess of Wu Mountain, and the scenic spots of Ba Yu. It is worth mentioning that the poetry and prose of Ba Yu generally present a pure and sincere beauty—depicting real landscapes, expressing genuine emotions, comprehending truth, and finding genuine interest. Even when describing mythical figures or absurd scenes, the writers pour their true personalities into their imaginative flights. As a result, the works are rich in substance, possess a soul, have individuality, and bear their own distinct marks. These works are undoubtedly the essence of Ba Yu poetry and prose. The book is divided into four main parts: Ba Yu Poetry, Ba Yu Ci, Ba Yu Songs, and Ba Yu Prose. It provides an overview, characteristics, and representative figures of each of these four literary forms.
