Poetry-History Modelling in the Perspective of Tang History and Tang Legends—— Doubting Qian Zhongshu’s Misjudgement on Chen Yinke

Since 1940,in the field of “poetry-history” relationship,Chen Yinke and Qian Zhongshu have had their own paths of thought and poetic modelling.Chen has never denounced Qian’s poetic views,but Qian has been criticising Chen’s “poetic-historical” model for more than half a century.Since the new century,more and more scholars have been involved in this case,but most of them have taken the “poetry-history division” advocated by Qian as a criterion,without referring to Chen’s writings.The so-called “doubt” in this paper is willing to read the literature of Qian’s and Chen’s works on the same premise,pointing out that Qian’s “wrong judgement” of Chen is also rooted in Qian’s “high opinion” as a giant of poetics,while failing to make a systematic “exploration of the book” of Chen’s writings (especially the “Yuanbai Poetry Notes and Certificates”).
