The collection of China literature originated very early. What are the masterpieces of each dynasty?

The collection of China literature originated very early. The Book of Songs is a collection of poems, but it is a complete collection. The Collection of Poems and Proses is a comprehensive collection of various styles, which began with the Collection of Articles and Proses of Zhiyu in Jin Dynasty, but this book has been lost. After Zhiyu, Liang Daizhao, Ming Jun and Xiao Tong compiled The Selected Works, which is the earliest extant collection of poems. It recorded all kinds of poems and essays from the pre-Qin Dynasty to the Liang Dynasty in 800 years, including 434 poems, 99 poems and 265,438+09 articles, which were divided into 38 categories according to style and selected 65,438+029 writers. The Selected Works preserved most of the outstanding works from the pre-Qin Dynasty to the Liang Dynasty, which provided great convenience for future generations to study the history of literary development in this period. This book has a great influence on later generations, with many research and annotation works, forming a special "anthology". After Selected Works, 2 1 volume "Guwenyuan" came out, with unknown editor. Sun Zhuchuan of the Northern Song Dynasty collected more than 260 poems from Zhou Dynasty to Nanqi, which were divided into 20 categories.

In addition, Amin Zhang Yan compiled the Collection of Celebrities in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties 133, with the volume of 1 18, which was another collection of poems and poems of the whole generation before the Tang Dynasty. The 1000 volume Wen Yuan Hua Ying, compiled by Li Fang and others in the Northern Song Dynasty, is a sequel to Selected Works, which collects poems and songs from Liang Dynasty to Tang Dynasty, but the poems of Tang Dynasty account for more than 90%, so it is actually a collection of poems of Tang Dynasty. Wen Yuan Hua Ying is voluminous and inconvenient to read, so Yao Xuan selected110 from it in the early Song Dynasty and compiled it into Tang Cuiwen 100 volume, which formed an upstream poetry collection and was also convenient for scholars to use. There is a collection of poems and essays in the Song Dynasty, including Song Wenjian 150 edited by the Southern Song Dynasty, formerly known as Huang Chao. This book imitates the style of Selected Works and selects the poems of the Northern Song Dynasty. * * * is divided into 6 1 class.

The Selected Poems of Southern Song Dynasty were divided into 55 categories. The 70-volume edition of Yuan Wen Class compiled by Su Tianjue in Yuan Dynasty, formerly known as Guo Chao Lei Wen, is a collection of poems in Yuan Dynasty. Later generations selected the main poems from the early Yuan Dynasty to the middle Yuan Dynasty and divided them into 43 categories. Wen Mingheng and Wen Mingzai reflect the general situation of poetry and prose creation in Ming Dynasty.
