The "Selected Works of Zhaoming" is the earliest extant collection of poems and prose in my country. It was edited and selected by a group of literati organized by Xiao Tong, the eldest son of Emperor Wu of Liang in the Southern Dynasty. Xiao Tong was given the posthumous title "Zhaoming" after his death, so the anthology he edited is called "Selected Works of Zhaoming".
"Shi Pin" is a poetry theory work written by Zhong Rong, a litterateur in the Southern and Northern Dynasties of my country. It is also the earliest extant
major work on poetry in my country. Theory has far-reaching consequences. Together with "The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons" written by Liu Xie, it is also known as the "double masterpiece of poetry and prose" in the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
