brief introduction
The Dictionary of Appreciation of Tang and Song Ci is an important variety in the series of China Literature Appreciation Dictionary published by Shanghai Dictionary Publishing House.
The first edition of this book was published in the late 1980s. The editor carefully selected the title of the book, invited experts at home and abroad to write appreciation articles, and created another masterpiece of literary appreciation after the Dictionary of Appreciation of Tang Poetry. For more than 20 years, it has enjoyed a long-standing reputation among readers and has been selling well.
However, due to the long time of compilation, many information in the original book is outdated and cannot reflect the research results in the field of Ci poetry for more than 20 years. To this end, the publishing house invited famous Ci poets such as Zhong, Liu Zunming, etc. to make in-depth revisions to the original book, bibliography and biographies of poets, and published the second edition of the Dictionary of Appreciation of Tang and Song Ci. This edition corrected the mistakes in the original book, added new materials, deleted several articles at will, fully absorbed the research results of Ci poetry in recent years, and made the book better in quality and better meet the needs of readers. It is "an outstanding new chapter, the best-selling chapter in 20 years."
In addition, the Dictionary of Appreciation of Tang and Song Ci edited by Tang Guizhang published by Jiangsu Ancient Books Publishing House is also quite systematic. Mr. Tang Lao is quite authoritative in this respect, and invited many people at home and abroad, of course, mainly Tang school people.
