What are the forms, genres and characteristics of The Book of Songs and Songs of the South?

The Book of Songs is the earliest collection of poems in China and the representative of realism.

Poetry in The Book of Songs is mainly lyrical, which is very close to people's lives at that time, so it has become a representative of realism. The basic sentence pattern is four words, and sometimes there are various sentence patterns from two words to nine words. However, the proportion of miscellaneous sentences is very low. And often in the form of overlapping chapters, that is, between repeated chapters, the meaning and literal changes are only a little, resulting in the effect of singing and sighing.

The Songs of Chu refers to the name of Liu Xiang's poetry collection "Songs of Chu" based on Qu Yuan's works and Song Yu's works "Chengqu", and also refers to a new poetry genre created by Qu Yuan himself on the basis of Chu Ci. It is the representative of romanticism.

Therefore, its genre is Chu Ci, and its characteristic is of course strong local color, which cannot be written in a short time. As far as I can see, the most obvious feature of Chuci is that there are many words "Xi" (embarrassing, but not all articles are Chuci ~ ~), and the forms are diversified ~ ~
