Publisher Description:
The Qu form of poetry is a type of Classical Chinese poetry form, consisting of words written in one of a number of certain, set tone patterns, based upon the tunes of various songs. Thus Qu poems are lyrics with lines of varying longer and shorter lengths, set according to the certain and specific, fixed patterns of rhyme and tone of conventional musical pieces upon which they are based and after which these matched variations in lyrics generally take their name.The fixed-tone type of verse such as the Qu and the ci together with the shi and fu forms of poetry comprise the three main forms of Classical Chinese poetry. In Chinese literature, the Quform of poetry from the Yuan Dynasty may be called Yuanqu. Some famous Yuan Poetry Poets are Guan Hanqing, Ma Zhiyuan, Qiao Ji etc. Guan Hanqing was a notable Chinese playwright and poet in the Yuan Dynasty. He has been described as among the most prolific and highly regarded dramatists of the Yuan period. Ma Zhiyuan's sanqu poem "Autumn Thoughts," composed to the metric pattern Tianjingsha, uses ten images in twenty-two monosyllables to preamble a state of emotion.
