Abstract
Fang Dongshu was an important writer of the later Tongcheng Literary School. He discussed poetics from the perspective of article writing style and therefore reframed the historical connection between the Jiangxi Poetics and Du Fu's Han Yu's "prose style in poetry". Fang Dongshu argued that although Huang Tingjian had learnt the creation of artistic conception from Du Fu and the expression of style from Han Yu, he didn't achieve the natural realm and smooth aesthetic found in them.Fang had a comprehensive and detailed analysis about the Jiangxi Poetics, summarized its value, ways of composition, experience, etc. These are the historical contribution and development of Fang Dongshu's poetics.
