Short description:
A seminal Chinese-language monograph on the study of song-poetry (sanqu), recognising as ?a masterpiece in the study on the dynastic history of the song-poetry in the 20th century?, focusing on the fundamental theories, composition and historical evolution of sanqu in Yuan China (1260?1368).
MoreLong description:
This book provides a survey of Yuan sanqu, with its principal sections focusing on fundamental theories, compositional features, and historical evolution. Its treatment of qu criticism and bibliography offers a comprehensive perspective on the defining characteristics of sanqu. Serving both as a general overview of sanqu and a foundation for future research, this publication explores this unique yet historically marginalized genre of song-poetry. It generates new insights through textual analysis and the nuanced discussion of dualistic concepts, such as the interplay between literature and music, the Song and Yuan dynasties, and the relationship between ci-lyrics and song-poetry.
