In context of ?imitation poetry,? the popular genre of the Six Dynasties era, Jiang?s work can be seen as the culmination of central trends in Six Dynasties poetry. His own life experiences are encoded in his poetry through an array of literary impersonations, reframed in traditional literary forms that imbue them with renewed significance. A close reading of Jiang Yan?s poetry demonstrates the need to apply models of interpretation to Chinese poetry that do justice to the multiplicity of authorial self-representation. 410 0$aSinica Leidensia$v118. 606 $aChinese poetry$y221 B.C.-960 A.D$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPoetics$vEarly works to 1800 606 $aChinese poetry$2fast 606 $aPoetics$2fast 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 608 $aEarly works.$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChinese poetry$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPoetics 615 7$aChinese poetry. 615 7$aPoetics. 676 $a895.18/209 700 $aWilliams$b Nicholas Morrow$0973495 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910480062903321 996 $aImitations of the Self$92214732 997 $aUNINA
