Hong Liangji Poetry And Poetry Criticism

During the Qian-Jia Era in Qing Dynasty, the social environment was quite stable, and the economy was fairly developed. By the accumulation of early achievements, academic, culture and literature had reached a new peak, so was the literary criticism. There were lots of great scholars, poets and critics at that time. Hong Liangji tripled with the three titles. In this paper, through the case study on Hong Liangji, I tried to deepen my knowledge on the academic of Qing Dynasty, and its impact on poetry writing and poetry criticism, and the interaction among the three. I hope that through the discuss on a poetry viewpoint other than the Three Theories of Poetry, readers would have a more comprehensive knowledge on the pattern of Qian-jia Poetry Circle.The paper is divided into four chapters. In the first chapter, I will introduce the era background, and go through Hong Liangji' s entire life and his thoughts. In the second chapter, I will introduce the poetry circle background of Qian-jia Era and Hong Liangji' s poems. In the third chapter, I will discourse upon Hong Liangji' s thoughts on poetry criticism. The forth chapter covers all the remaining topics.
