in later eras, including those who contributed to "The
Golden Age of Japanese Culture" (see

Classic of Poetry (see
pages 812–820 in volume A), to prepare for a

- Tu Fu's poetry and his emphasis on political commitment,
familial love, and social concern are inspired by Confucian

in "Poetry and Thought in Early China" (see
pages 820–831 in volume A).
- Yüan Chen's Story of Ying-ying is
one strand of the T'ang narrative tradition written
in classical Chinese. The other strand of T'ang narrative
includes the "Vernacular Literature of China"
(see pages 3–279 in volume
A).
