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 River Three Gorges, the Goddess of Wu Mountain, and the scenic spots of Bashu. It is worth mentioning that the Bashu poetry and prose generally present a pure and sincere beauty—depicting real landscapes, expressing genuine emotions, comprehending truth, and deriving genuine interest. Even when describing mythical figures or absurd scenes, the writers pour their true personalities into their soaring imagination. As a result, the works are rich in substance, possess a soul, have individuality, and bear their distinct marks. These works are undoubtedly the essence of Bashu poetry and prose. The book is divided into four main parts: Bashu Poetry, Bashu Ci, Bashu Songs, and Bashu Prose. It separately explains the overview, characteristics, and representative figures of the four literary forms mentioned above.
