Abstract
Many scholars such as Hu Shi have made pioneering contributions to the researches of The Book of Songs in the recent century. They have found common ground regarding some issues about The Book of Songs: it is the earliest poetry collection in China; all the poems are songs; there are three types of poems, namely, feng, ya, and song. But there might be serious misunderstandings in these aspects, which need reinvestigation. We should express gratitude to predecessors who enlighten us and misguide us simultaneously. It is our destiny that we will be permanently on the road to truth of The Book of Songs.
