A group of poems (zǔshī) refers to a work composed of several interconnected poems with the same title and content. Each poem in the group of poems is relatively complete and independent, but there is an inherent connection between each poem and other poems in the group of poems.
This connection can be the same theme, related content, or proximity in space or time. No matter what kind of connection it is, as a group of poems, it strives to comprehensively and thoroughly reflect the connotation of things and the author's emotions from different angles, levels and orientations.
From this point of view, a group of poems has advantages that a single poem cannot. The group of poems reflects the poet's complex inner world with its unique stylistic features and influences other styles. It has special stylistic significance in the history of literary development.
As a unique form of poetic expression, group poetry sprouted in the pre-Qin Dynasty and was finalized in the Tang Dynasty. A large number of works have been published in various periods after the pre-Qin Dynasty. They range from a group of two songs to a group of dozens of songs, or even a group of a hundred songs. Either they were made at the same time and place, or they were made at different times and different places.
