The Making of Early Chinese Classical Poetry - Hardback - 2006

Adopts a double approach to the poetry composed between the end of the 1st Century BC and the 3rd Century AD. This book examines extant material from this period synchronically with some poems attached to authors and some not. It argues that this was one poetry, created from a shared poetic repertoire and compositional practices.
