The pre-Qin period was an era in which China's ancient literature developed and made brilliant achievements. The ancient culture, which began four or five thousand years ago, ended before the unification of Qin Dynasty in 22 BC1. In such a long time from now on, the ancient civilization and splendid culture created by our people were rare in the world at that time, and they can completely compare with the "ancient Greek culture" and "ancient Roman culture" in ancient Europe. This is the pride of the Chinese nation and the wealth of all mankind.
Pre-Qin literature is in the foundation stage of the development of ancient literature in China. Among them, ancient myths, poems and essays made great achievements, which had a far-reaching impact on the development of later literature.
In a word, in the development of China literature, pre-Qin literature is both the source and the peak of rich cultural accumulation.
