Lyrics in the qi genre of the Song era (X-XIII centuries) are one of the highest peaks of Chinese literature. Poetry came closer to feelings, discarded the constraining forms of canonical regular poems in the shi genre, and merged even more closely with music. Poetic texts were written to already known or new melodies and, acquiring musicality, were expressed by the intricate metering of lines, exquisite phonetic structure, thoughtful harmony of sounds, a flair of reticence, from the haze of which subtle hints and allusions emerged. Tsa's poetry was often translated into different languages, but the features of form and melodiousness were predominantly of secondary importance and were not always reproduced, which caused significant damage to the overall harmonious sound of the work. This collection, consisting of one hundred poems by thirty-four poets, is the first most detailed collection in Russia, giving a reliable idea of the poetry of the Song era in the ci genre. The publishing layout of the book is saved in PDF A4 format.
