The Study of Siling PoemsTsui, Cheng-Fen 09 July 2004 (has links)
Siling Poems consists of poetry written by Xuezhao (namely Linghui), Xueji (Lingyuan), Ongjuan (Lingshu) and Zhaoshiiu (Lingxiu). The four poets had the same interests and they were good friends with each other. In their names there¡¦s the word, ¡§Ling¡¨, and their styles were quite similar, therefore the poems they created were called the Siling Poems (They were also called the Yongjia Siling).
The Yongjia Siling was a famous and unique poetry group after Jianxi poetry group in South-Song. Their styles mainly focused on the restoration of the late Tang Dynasty style. They wanted to correct the impropriety of Jianxi poetry. The four poets valued Jiadao and Yaoheyi very much and they liked their style of chanting and writing poetry. Their literary evolution developed in a logical way, same as the Siling. They adopted the styles of the middle and late Tang Dynasty, the nine monks in the Song Dynasty and the styles of the late Tang Dynasty in North-Song (such as Weiyie, Linbu and Kouzhun). They even influenced the poets in the Jiahu poetry group.
The four poets had ordinary family backgrounds and their talents were mediocre, but still some interesting poems can be found in their work. Yet the scholars did not focus on them, and only fewer relevant studies can be seen.
