Abstract
This thesis focus on Qin Guan’s Huaihai Ci and examines the following questions: What kind of life experiences and personal character that contribute to Qin Guan’s work ? What kind of emotions and attitudes in his work that touch the readers? How do his written works leads the readers to see the writer’s horizon and the timeless spirits? The humanistic is inevitable when dealing with literature, which enriches the value of literature research. The first chapter offers a brief overview of recent studies of Qin Guan and Huaihai Ci, clarifying the terms and versions used in this thesis as well. By revealing the current research tendency, I then confine my discussion and focus. Chapter two gives a clear description of Qin Guan’s life experience, particularly the interaction between Qin Guan and Su Shi as they were in the same literature group. Also, I discuss his writing style based on previous criticism and his best works in every genre. In Chapter three I review the development of Ci and the reasons why Qin Guan’s character matches the genre Ci. Formed by the combination of music and lyrics, Ci has been through a evolution. The discussion will focus on three aspects: the essence of Ci, the music-combined element and the way it conveys the writer’s emotions. Chapter four and Chapter five analyzes Qin Guan’s Ci. I examine Qin Guan’s writing style and discuss that how he achieved the aesthetic value by simple words. Also, I analyze that how Qin Guan depicted the affections and the scene in his Ci and combined them. The last part of Chapter five discusses that how Qin Guan conveyed space time consciousness in Ci. As the conclusion, Chapter six reviews all the discussions in the previous chapters and gives a comprehensive view of the words in Qin Guan’s Ci and its affections. Furthermore, I raise several issues for the future research.
