Prototype comment, which is one of the main literary comment methods of our country in olden days, derived from traditional scripture. Prototype comment always values historical facts which are the bases of literary comments, and it contains a work's original meaning as the historical facts and story line, so prototype is important for us to comprehend and study the works. Prototype is one of the five constituent elements of Yuefu Poem, and the paper regard it as an object of study for this reason.The paper describes the prototype of Yuefu Poem from four aspects.The first is the content concerning prototype. The content is the internal substance or meaning of things, so we have to understand the contents more or less which is implicated in prototype firstly, and then determine the range of research of the text before we make a study of Yuefu Poem. After analyzing the information of materials, the author thinks that the content of Yuefu Poem includes the creation, the source and change of melody, the origin and alteration of melody name, the spread and evolvement of music, the production of lyric in past dynasties, and the borrowing, remanufacture, piecing up, and partition in the process of using.During studying the content of prototype, the author analyzes the close contacts between the prototype and other composing factors of Yuefu poem. Based on actual instance, the author thinks that the melody name of Yuefu Poem is named by its prototype, and many melody names are the key words of the content of prototype. On the other hand, the poem always responds to the prototype's creation of melody, and it implicates much information of prototype, which makes the prototype of melody represent poetic characteristics.The second is the source concerning prototype. The study of prototype should start with the textual research, analysis and synthesis of historical materials. So understanding the prototype's literature source of Yuefu Poem is the basic work for us to do some research on prototype of Yuefu Poem. In the process of textual research, the author categorizes the historical literature recorded the prototype of Yuefu Poem into five types approximately, which are official history and ceremonial record, literature narrated the subject, melody notes, the poem itself written by literator and the preface, annotation and quotation of the poems, and other recordation. After understanding the literature source of prototype of Yuefu Poem, the author analyzes the disposal methods of narrating the subject of Yuefu Poetry. In the author's opinion, in order to comprehend the original meaning of melody, Maoqian Guo narrated the prototype of melody approximately through the all kinds of ways, such as citing the recordation from former person at first hand, adopting the poems and its preface, annotation, and quotation, adopting the illumination written by organizer, and investigating the history materials to narrate the subject.The third is the change concerning prototype. The prototype of Yuefu Poem is usually more artistic for the historical facts or legend, so we can draw a conclusion that many prototypes of melodies are at the continuous state of streaming from the contrast of source and change. In the process of the prototype's formation and evolution, the prototype probably falls away from the historical fact, as well as appears heterodoxy and error, even is at the evolutive course of superposing continuously, which will develop new story details by the posterity.The fourth is the function concerning prototype. The final purpose of studying prototype of Yuefu Poem is to understand the huge function of prototype in the process of literature producing. As an element included the information of works mostly, prototype always implicates the original meaning of melody, because of which aftertime-literator always intones from prototype to make the Yuefu Poem with ancient topic creation not depart from the original meaning of melody. The literator maybe narrates the prototype directly, or remarks on the prototype, perhaps he will excavate and use the prototype from some point of view. The prototype of Yuefu Poem with ancient topic will probably affect the other poem creation besides the Yuefu Poem, so it will probably be regarded as the literary quotation or cultural background by the literator in the process of poem inditing, or will become cultural connotation represented specific subject, or will be some idiographic object symbol. There are some beautiful literature-inditing materials becoming the direct content depicted during inditing the poems.Apart from the body of the book there are three informative appendices.The first is concerned with the exact meaning of " the study of ancient Yuefu " of Li bai. In this paper,I think that Li bai are well read in ancient writers, he had a good understanding of the archetype of many tunes, and applied such archetypes to his literary compositions. At the same time, those tunes which are hard to obtain a detailed examination of the prototype, Li bai may use only with a traditional story accepted as the prototype in the creation. All this shows that Li bai 's " the study of ancient Yuefu " is a comprehensive summary of his creative achievements of the ancient Yuefu Poems.Second,The relationship between Han Yu's "Qin cao" and his awareness of the highest political ideals. This article thinks that Han Yu Opt to imitate "Qin cao", actually lies in ancient Qin songs are the traditional music which can keep intellectual character. Han Yu's creations of "Qin cao" are in close touch with his awareness of the highest political ideals.Third, Researching the story of the guchuiqu about recording orders merit and virtues in the past dynasties.
