Abstract

The studies of the poetry of the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties, which have developed in a new teaching and academic system, show a combination of classical scholarship and modern approaches and therefore have some representative significance in ancient literature studies. There is a long tradition of such studies and scholars have got new discourse from such fresh literary concepts as the theory of evolution, vernacular literature and popular literature to reconstruct or interpret the history of poetry, and discovered or discussed some new facts, thus making studies of yuefu poetry attract considerable academic attention. As such studies develop, facts begin to readjust scholars' notions and approaches and urge them to understand the history of poetry holistically and in a way that resonates with and even returns to classical scholarship. A combination of classical scholarship and new approaches is a good way of writing the history of poetry. It is necessary for researchers of literary history to reflect on how to integrate the classical and the modern, the west and China in their studies.
