Abstract

In Study on the Opera in the Song and Yuan Dynasties (Song Yuan Xi Qu Kao), Wang Guowei wrote, “Each dynasty has its own literature: lisao in the State of Chu, fu in the Han Dynasty, parallel verses in the Six Dynasties, poetry in the Tang Dynasty, ci in the Song Dynasty and opera in the Yuan Dynasty. All of the them were representative literature in a dynasty and could not be reproduced by later generations”.
