On the basis of historical background and the process of Chinesecharacterizing this paper will study the people and the situation of that time. Under the clue ofdifferent nations and the author’s various literatures, this paper will explore the characteristicsof the literatures. This paper is consists of the introduction and six chapters:You can comprehend the 394 years this paper researched-from the first year ofJian’an(an emperor), namely in 196 to emperor Yang Jian in Sui Dynasty unified China,namely in 589-and the object- different nationalities in ancient times as Huns, Jie, Di, Qiang,Xianbei(including those with the surnames of Murong, Tuoba, Yuwen and Huagao) recordedexplicitly in the full ancient dynasties founded before this time written by Yan Kejun in Qingdynasty and the same kind of book written by Lu Qinli and historical records-defined in theintroduction.Chapter one A Brief Introduction on Poems and Essays of This TimeEthnic minorities rose sharply one after another with different political powers. In orderto consolidate their rule and power, they implemented the Chinese characterizing mainly frompolitical and ideological aspect. During this time, they went through a circuitous process with3 low ebbs and 3 peaks. Associated with this background, their poems and essays alsoexperienced 3 low ebbs and 3 peaks and became mature in the end. The deeper extent ofChinese characterizing, the higher level of literature, and the two are closely associated with each other.Chapter two Poems and Essays of Huns and JieDuring Northern and Southern dynasties, Huns founded 3 regimes, namely ex-Zhao,Northern Liang and Xia Dynasty in which the first is the most powerful. The leader of Jie isthe lord of ex-Zhao at first and founded post-Zhao afterwards. Therefore, we make acomparison between the two. They are different in Chinese characterizing in that Huns paymore attention on study while Jie towards clash. Their total existing articles are 54 which areall wrote for political purpose including policies on deserving award and punishment, desirefor the freedom of speech and talents, the construction of palaces, remonstrations of lords,military issues and people’s situation with only 12 people. Compared with the erudite andextensive of Han and Zhao of the Huns, the poems of Jie are much more aggressive with thebelief of Buddhism. In all, they both straightforward and unrestrained indicating their nationalcharacteristics of martialisch.Chapter three Poems of Di and QiangThe regimes during the Southern and Northern dynasties founded by Di and Qiang areex-Chouchi, post-Chouchi, Chenghan defined by the surname of Ba, ex-Qin by Fu,post-Liang by Lue of the Di nationality and post-Qin by the surname of Yao in the Qiangnationality. The five regimes of the two nationalities are complex with each other except Badivided by ex-Qin, therefore, the two are researched together. Ex-Qin saw the first peak ofliterature with various features corresponding to the peak of Chinese characterizing and theonly works of ancient philosophers other than those of Confucius Works of Fu (a surname ofnationality Di) which imagined and invented based on the ancestors with metaphors andallegories to exposit principles and justifications. It is vigorous and energetic mainlydescribed by five words each sentence and some kind of Lao and Chuang Tzu-great mastersof China’s ancient times.Chapter four Poems of Murong in Xianbei NationalityMurong Family founded 4 States of Yan in 74 years which is a mysterious minority. Itsprocess of Chinese characterizing was much more gentle and earlier with 14 talents, 30articles and 1 poem what we still can appreciate. During the 16 States Perild, it’s achievementin literature was the best except ex-Qin, especially those written by Hui, Huang, Ke, Zhong and Chui of Murong family which are full of literariness and readability and impassioned.Chapter five Poems of Tuoba in Xianbei NationalityThe process of Chinese characterizing of Tuoba was a little complex and sustained fornearly 300 years. The characters of it were complicate in the early time developed to becontradicting in the middle and transferred to be deeper in the middle and the late time. Theblossom of literature was mainly spreading before and after Wen emperor in Xiao Dynasty,namely the deeper and developing period of Chinese Characterizing seeing various literaturesin condolence, ode, poems named by Fu, such as the commemoration of Bi Gan by YuanHong in Yin dynasty and the Fly Fu by Yuan Shun being an expression of emotion. Thefive-word poems are the real portrayal of people’s destiny in the convulsion of war time.Their literature made up the second high peak of minorities.Chapter six Literature of Family Gao in XianbeiFamily Gao in Xianbei were originally Hans and accustomed as Xianbei as they lived inthe north part for a long time. The Familly Gao were at first raise up by uprising and opposedto Chinese characterizing being conflict. Different from others, this period of time saw theback flow of Chinese characterizing namely Hans are influenced by the minorities. Althoughemperor Houzhu of Gao Wei period founded the Wen-lin Museum, but their literature werenot as great as the Hans and worse than that of Tuoba. As a result, the literature was in the lowbottom as the extent of Chinese characterizing. The articles were almost written for politicalpurposes lacking of readability and rough in simple style.Chapter seven Poems of YuwenAfter the Chinese characterizing of Tuoba, the extent of the family Yuwen are muchmore deeper being the most effective ethnic minority in Southern and Northern dynasties.Corresponding to it, under the influence of Scribes of Han Dynasty as Wang Bao, Yu xin andso on, they had a profoundly development. The extent of Chinese characterizing and the levelof literature reached the peak of this time in ethnic minorities. The 7 poems are characteristicand unique from each other with various style even referring to the theory of literary criticism.In a word, under the historical background, this paper makes a logical research andevaluation on the poems and articles of ethnic minorities on the principle line of nationalityand the subordinate line of Chinese characterizing.
