Fu poems are highly revealing sources for understanding the culture, society, and politics of their periods, and in this volume eleven essays by prominent scholars treat the fu from four major perspectives: its original use in court recitation; as a poetic genre with distinctive formal features; as a vehicle of philosophical inquiry; and as a major mode of political expression.East meets west (ARC Humanities Press)FuHistory and criticismCongressesChinese poetryHistory and criticismCongressesChinese poetry.imperial China.late imperial Chinese literature.medieval Chinese literature.rhapsody.FuHistory and criticismChinese poetryHistory and criticism895.1104Williams Nicholas MorrowFu Poetics (Conference)(2016 :Hong Kong Baptist University.
