The She King is originally called 'poetry', also known as '300 Poetry'. It is included in the Confucian classics, so it is called 'The poetry Jing'(The She King)', including 305 poetries created in more than 500 years from Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle of Spring and Autumn period. It is composed by three parts known as the 'wind '(160 poetries from 15 kingdoms), 'Ya '(105 poetries),' Song '(40 poetries such as 'zhousong', 'shangsong', and 'lusong'), depicting a vivid picture of ancient Chinese social history. It is the first poetry collection in Chinese history and also the source of Chinese poetry. This book in Chinese-English comparison takes readers to feel the elegant demeanor of this masterwork from Chinese and western two angles.
