The Ci-Poetry Theory on the Graceful and Restrained School and the Bold and Unconstrained School
摘要
Ci-poetry (different from that mentioned earlier) in the Song Dynasty is hailed as a masterpiece of its time, but its theoretical foundation is relatively limited. This is because literati and scholars regarded it as a form of entertainment and did not invest much effort in developing its theoretical framework. However, as Ci-poetry evolved and various schools emerged, different perspectives and debates arose, leading to the emergence of theoretical writings on Ci-poetry theory.
