The Crescent Society was not originally a specialized literary and artistic group. It started its activities in the form of dinner parties and later developed into the Crescent Club. Crescent Society was established in the spring of 1923.
Drama activities were initially carried out. In 1925, after Xu Zhimo took over the editing of "Morning News Supplement", he edited and published "Poetry" and "Drama Journal", and began to form the Crescent Poetry School.
Among them are a large number of talented and accomplished poets such as Wen Yiduo and Xu Zhimo. They are also unique in advocating metrical poetry, forming an important poetry school in the history of modern poetry, known as "Crescent Poetry" School of Poetry" or "School of Metrical Poetry".
