Ci is a kind of poetry. Because it is the lyrics of music and harmony, it is also called tune, Yuefu, music movement, long and short sentences, poetry, piano music and so on. It began in the Tang Dynasty, took shape in the Five Dynasties and flourished in the Song Dynasty. Song Ci is a brilliant diamond in the crown of China ancient literature. In the ancient literature of Yuen Long, it is a fragrant and gorgeous garden. With its colorful and varied charm, she is on a par with Tang poetry and Yuanqu, and has always been said to be the best companion of Tang poetry, representing the prosperity of a generation of literature. Later, there was a book with the same name, Song Ci.
Yuanqu originated from the so-called "Fanqu" and "Le Hu" and was first circulated among the people, and was called "Street Tune" or "Village Square Minor". With the destruction of Song Dynasty in Yuan Dynasty, it spread in the vast areas of north and south, centering on Dadu (now Beijing) and Lin 'an (now Hangzhou). Yuanqu has strict metrical formula, and each qupai has fixed format requirements in sentence pattern, word number, level tone and so on.
Modern poetry, also known as "vernacular poetry", is a kind of poetry. Compared with classical poetry, it is generally not restricted by format and rhythm. The discovery of modern poetry can be traced back to the late Qing Dynasty. At that time, some poems imported from the west began to be translated into vernacular Chinese, but these works were not very big, so little was known. 1953 used the name of modern poetry for the first time-it was established when Ji Xian founded the Modern Poetry Society. The main schools of modern poetry are Crescent School, kuya School and Misty School.
