Research On Female Ci Poetry In Qing Dynasty

All kinds of literatures and academic learnings in Qing Dynasty have achieved great accomplishments,which is called gathering together all that is good.Among which,Ci-ology ?? is especially praised as resurgence,following in Song Dynasty's footsteps that is four hundred years ago.Within this great background,female literature of Qing Dynasty has come into flourishing flowers,attracting the attentions and amazedness of people at that time and nowadays.Zhexi Ci School ???? and Changzhou Ci School ???? are the two most pivotal ci schools in Qing Dynasty.Scholars have progressively explored this field in the past century and made comparatively abundant achievements.However,the task of tidying and studying on the whole Qing Ci is still arduous and the road is long.The project of Quan Qing Ci ??? has been on the most pivotal Jiadao Volume ???.This project is quite difficult to work on since it requires solid work step by step.Thus when the basic documents haven't been fully presented,the related researches will be restricted as well.For instance,the macroscopical frame of Qing Dynasty ci field has been constructed while some detailed researches are still lack of study such as the relationships between different ci schools and the ci academic ethos' changes and transfers.Maybe it could be told that the study on Zhe Ci School and Chang Ci School has reached a period of stagnation.We scholars are not satisfied with the set routine of study.At this point,a new cut point for research is needed.That's to say considering the female ci of Qing Dynasty within the whole Qing Dynasty or even the whole ci history.Although the stance of this thesis is female ci of Qing Dynasty,but it could reflect the entire ci improvements and changes as it's part of the Qing Dynasty ci.The meaning of this subject is just at this.On one hand,this thesis tries to infuse new vitality to the important field of Qing Ci research,adding some details to the grand frame and making it more perfect,such like adding eyes to a drawn dragon and penciling eyebrows for a beautiful lady.On another hand,this thesis intends to boost Qing Dynasty female literature research somehow,rectifying names of female iterature and fining a proper position for it in literature history.However,there are amounts of difficulties for this subject to be put forward,so this thesis use three topics to make these two things combined,namely Gui Ci ??(ci written by a fair maiden),Yongwu Ci ???(ci praising of objects)and Liluan Ci ???(ci on separations and chaos caused by wars).Gui Ci is a vital part of mini ci ??in early stage,holding some kinds of regularization sense.Yongwu Ci origins in North Song Dynasty and gets mature in South Song Dynasty,becoming as powerful as a big country in Qing Dynasty.Liluan Ci is occasionally written in Song Dynasty.However,it becomes a kind of conscious writings with ci history values that could be compared with historical books in Qing Dynasty.These three parts appearing irrelevant,unexpectedly have touched upon nearly every aspect of the whole ci style's development skillfully,whether the grand ones or detailed ones.Meanwhile,they also generally contain the Qing Dynasty ci writing practice.Of course,we also sacrifice some small subjects,for example,abandoning the Titu Ci ???(ci written for drawings),which Qing Dynasty ci poets love to write.Nevertheless,generally speaking the three topics can behalf of the main part of Qing Ci,including female ci.As for those contents about ethics and feelings,within ci that are written by a female ci poet to her relatives or female friends,there will be another thesis on it.
