Features: The life of modern people is richer and more varied than that of the ancients, especially in material aspects. However, the emotional world of modern people is not as subtle and refined as that of the ancients. The ancients said, "Ci poetry expresses emotions." This literary form of Ci is no longer the mainstream of contemporary art, which illustrates this point to some extent. In terms of emotional needs, modern people and the ancients are actually no different. It is just that in today's complex world, people are busy and exhausted, seemingly having no time to indulge in lingering emotions, to savor the subtle changes between people and their environment, and the ripples they bring. Precisely for this reason, modern people need more spiritual solace. This is the reason we published this series of books. Reading the works of the ancients is not a bad way to emotions. The poets selected in this series are all famous figures of the "Lyrical School." Their personal lives were full of ups and downs, so their emotions are expressed in a subtle, profound, and delicate manner. They lived hundreds or even thousands of years ago, how distant they are! However, the experiences they went through—from being supreme rulers to being subjugated, from comfort and ease to hardship and wandering, from true love to unfortunate separation, from happy marriages to the departure of their beloveds—these ups and downs of life, have modern people not had similar experiences and feelings? As for the pursuit of love, the longing for family, the appreciation of beautiful scenery, and the yearning for a tranquil life, these are common human emotions that have remained unchanged through the ages, deeply connected. When readers read these works, they can not only appreciate the beauty of the ancients' emotional expression but also compare it with their own life experiences, soothing their hearts and opening their minds. The format of this series is also unique. The text is concise and beautiful, while the illustrations are bright and trendy, perfectly matching the meaning of the poetry with the scenes depicted. If readers can feel connected to the ancients, reflect on their own lives, and achieve peace and clarity when opening this book, it would be the great fortune of the authors.
Hard to pity the moon in the sky,
One night like a ring,
But like the moon's roundness, always bright,
Unwilling to give up the cold and snow for you.
Unfortunately, love is easy to lose,
Swallows still,
Softly stepping on the curtain hook.
After singing the autumn tomb, sorrow does not cease,
In the spring, recognize the paired butterflies.
