Features: There are many classics of traditional Chinese culture, and there is an issue of priorities and selection. We do not advocate creating a closed system with arbitrary "100 Must-Reads" or "50 Must-Reads." We believe that the treasure trove of Chinese traditional culture classics is open, with a dazzling array of gems. The launch of this series is to present to the readers the basic classics that should be first understood. Poetry is a form of linguistic art. The charm of language is fully demonstrated in Tang poetry. A mere four or eight lines of poetry can blend time and space, near and far, high and low, emotion and scenery, reality and fantasy. The content is highly condensed yet rich in meaning. Reading some Tang poetry greatly benefits moral cultivation, knowledge acquisition, and cultural literacy. As the peak of poetry history, Tang poetry has left us an extremely rich legacy. This book uses modern vernacular Chinese for annotations and critiques, making the text more accessible. Some homophones have been directly replaced, and a brief introduction is provided for each poet, hoping to be enjoyed by readers.
