A Study Of The Liangxi Poet Group During The Shunkang Period

In the early Qing Dynasty,the Ci poetry was most flourishing around Taihu Lake,with numerous famous poets and schools,among which the Liangxi Ci poets group was one of them.The formation of this group is influenced by many factors,such as the promotion of The Times,the influence of regional culture,the connection of family and marriage,the promotion of friendship and harmony,and the organization of leaders.Regionalism and familial nature are two important characteristics of this group.The Liangxi Ci poets have a lot of interaction with the poets in the early Qing Dynasty,such as Beijing Nalan Xingde,Jiang Chenying,the Yang Xian Ci School of Chen Weisong,Wan Shu,the Zhexi Ci School of Cao Rong,Zhu Yizun,and Guangling Wang Shizhen,Yudong Zhou Zaijun,Xiling Wang Zhuo.Through communication with the outside world,the Liangxi Ci poets expand their vision and renew their cognition.While being influenced,they also have influence on other Ci group.The Liangxi Ci poets group was formed during the period of the Ming and Qing Dynasties,and was deeply influenced by Donglin Party people in the rural states who flasted their integrity.Many Ci poets' ancestors had served as officials in the Ming Dynasty,and their origins were influenced by their special cultural and family backgrounds.It can be divided into three categories:those who hold their will and keep their morals,those who wander from being an official and those who join an official.Liangxi Ci poets' lifestyle is complex and varied,which mainly includes reading,teaching,serving as an official,roaming,living in seclusion and escaping from meditation,which reflects the living form of the traditional scholar.The Gu's and the Hou's family are the important components of the Liangxi Ci poets' group.The representatives of Gu's family include Gu Zhenguan,Gu Zhenli and Gu Cai,while the Hou's family includes Hou Xi and Hou Wencan.With Gu Zhenguan as the core and Yan Shengsun and Qin Songling as the wings,they surrounded Nalan Xingde and played a banner with "Xingling theory".Hou Wencan as the representative of the family Ci poets,inherited the "Huacao" in the Ming Dynasty,advocating gaudy,which is the return of the traditional Ci power.Theoretical division is formed between the two.Du zhao and other Liangxi Ci poets in the later period,their Ci theory were rooted in their hometowns,but under the strong guidance of the Zhexi Ci school,they gradually integrated into it,and their choice of Ci theory typically reflected the trend of the Ci field in the early Qing dynasty from the complex and pluralistic pattern to the Zhexi Ci school.In addition,this paper also makes an investigation of some important poets such as Chen Dacheng,Qian Sulun,Zhang Xia,Gu Dai,Hua Xu,Wu Xingzuo,Wang Yunzhi,Zou Rong,Lu Mei,Gong Jingzhao,Du Xia,Hua Huanfang,in order to understand the overall style of the Liangxi Ci poets.The group of the Liangxi Ci poets is fluidity and looseness,and its Ci theory cover the two kinds of sounds of backflow and innovation,and its creation has its own characteristics.Generally speaking,in the face of the Ming dynasty just imitateing "Huacao" following the narrow path,the Liangxi Ci poets can make the best of the situation,in the path of the "Yunjian" to express the spirit,revitalize the elegant "Zhengsheng".It also interacted with other poets in the early Qing Dynasty and became an important promoter of the revival of Qing Ci with a conscious sense of responsibility.It is of great significance to study the development and evolution of the Liangxi Ci poets group for grasping the diverse ecology of Ci field and the evolution of Ci style in the early Qing dynasty.
