During the period of Emperor Zhengde(1506-1521)and Jiajing(1522-1566),it is the best time of Sanqu,including both quantity and quality.What's more,it also presents characteristics of member groups in different spaces,and the group of Family Yang is the most special one in member composition,writers' identity,writing attitude and writing form in contrast with spatial groups of Guan Zhong,Wu Zhong and Shan Dong,etc.In addition,the group of Family Yang also brings about the flourishing of the development of Sanqu in Sichuan and represents the highest accomplishment of this region.Yang Tinghe,one of the important members in the group,has a collection of Sanqu,which is regarded as written by him after he totally resigns from his official position,but in fact,a part of works in the collection are written before that,so this paper divides them all into four parts to discuss for the first time and hopes to describe his writing process better by referring to his family education and characteristics.As to Yang Shen,the most representative writer of the group,this paper mainly discusses him and his works not from subjects,features and influence,but from the negative evaluation of wrong rhymes and meters of his works and plagiarism.On one hand,this paper takes his representative works as example to analyze their rhyme and meter,and gets to the conclusion that he writes Sanqu as writing poems and some of his works are written by referencing to Chen Duo's works,who is also a great Sanqu writer before Yang Shen.On the other one hand,this paper shows that it is not right to criticize his plagiarism by comparing all examples of one piece of work with many writers in the collection of Sanqu of Ming dynasty,and points out some reasons of it.At the same time,I also make analysis about his works and style of them.There's another important writer in the group,Huang E,who is the wife of Yang Shen.It is an important fact that her works are usually mixed with Yang Shen's,so the paper firstly has to make a judge and tries to get to an accurate quantity of her works as possible as I can.Then the paper analyzes her left works and gets to the conclusion that her works are written by replying to her husband and which actually show the changing of their love.What's more,this paper also discusses other Sanqu writers related,who only write four just by replying to Yang Shen,about their identities,writing forms,writing background and attitude,etc.in order to analyze the reason of their writing choice and the value of the collection of their replying works.At last,the paper shows that all members of this group write Sanqu as the matter of secondary importance,not their mainly writing choice.
