This research is based on the twenty-one-volume version of " Gu Wen Yuan". Its object is Ci-Fu— a style occupying the largest portion in "Gu Wen Yuan ", and its perspective is mainly anthological stylistics and text hermeneutics.Study on the completion of “Gu Wen Yuan” begins from the research on the texts of Ci Fu and then combine with the internal evidence in the texts and the records of some documents. From these evidences we can deduce that the completion process of " Gu Wen Yuan " can be divided into three periods: collation, naming and cataloguing. The completion time of the book should be between 1084-1179.Because there has been arguments on whether some works collected in " Gu Wen Yuan " are faked or not, it is quite necessary to have the chronological and the synchronic study on whether the Ci-Fu in " Gu Wen Yuan " are faked.

Moreover the text of Ci-Fu implicates the authors’ inspiration, imagination and spiritual life connoting the authors’ emotions. Thus, analysis of the emotional elements in Ci-Fu can reveal the mind- set and sentiment of the famous writers of Ci-Fu in the time of Warring States, Qi and Liang Periods from microscopic view. These emotions include: the sadness on not being promoted and being poor, the sigh on love and death, the intoning for entertainment and mocking.To draw a conclusion, the purposes of the dissertation are to reinterpret the texts of Ci-Fu which have lots of national style and long historical tradition, and to get rid of the embarrassing situation that “Gu Wen Yuan” is only used in the field of philology and provide valuable ideas on spreading the influence of the anthology among the readers of the new time.
