Description

Excerpt from The Book of Chinese Poetry: Being the Collection of Ballads, Sagas, Hymns, and Other Pieces Known as the Shih Ching or Classic of Poetry

The Classic of Poetry consists of four divisions. The Fe''ng, The Lesser Ya, The Greater Ya, and The Sung, terms which I translate respectively The Ballads, The Songs for the Minor Festivals, The Songs for the Greater Festivals, and The Hymns. The reasons why I have adopted these titles are given in the introductory notes to each part.
