Features: The rare and hard-to-find classics such as The Collected Poems of the Three Scholars, The Orchid Grass, and Poems of Mutual Response are presented in their original form, allowing the works scattered in different collections to reveal their inherent and distinctive characteristics of their time. This is of great benefit to the study of historical events and the evolution of literary thought during the late Ming and early Qing periods, as well as to the understanding of authors and their works in their historical context. It is a tremendous blessing for both the reading public and the academic community. The poems and verses come from different sources, and the text may vary. To preserve the original appearance of the books, minor corrections from various selected editions are avoided, except for occasional textual adjustments. Some errors may even exist, and they will be corrected when a better version becomes available. In ancient books, variations in characters are often tolerated as long as they do not hinder comprehension, and these are retained without unnecessary changes.
