Abstract

At the beginning, the author quotes Yu Qiji’s evaluation of Xin Qiji in Cinese Literary Lineage, saying that since Xin Qiji's death, the high-level culture of an era has been in its twilight, and that "this may be the twilight of the entire ancient Chinese literary lineage in my mind". However, from all the poems created by Xin Qiji, it is obvious that there will be many different feelings, whether it is his ideological connotation, creative mentality, or language color, the differences in artistic techniques are very obvious. So it is summarized as the "three periods" of Xin Qiji's words: the youthful momentousness, the middle-aged recluse, the late years of despondency. This article centers on these three periods to see the ups and downs of Xin Qiji's life.
