Abstract

In the term ‘Guyi’, ‘Gu’ implies the poetry from the prior era of Jin Dynasty (221–206 BC) in China and ‘yi’ has a meaning of the poetry that were not listed in the ≪Book of Odes≫. The compilers of all the times who fabricated the anthologies had diverse perspectives on the ‘Guyi’ because the ‘Guyi’ poems were old and no evident records were existed. On the other hand, the ‘Guyi’ poems sometimes can be a good reference point for comparison in researching other anthologies of poetry due to such diverse perspectives. This study selected an old anthology of poetry called ≪Gushiyuan≫, implying ‘Old Poem Source’ and other poetry anthologies, which are associated with that, afterwards, compared a diversity with the ≪Gushiyuan≫. The ≪Gushiyuan≫ is an old anthology of major poems in the Chung Dynasty of China and was significantly affected by the ≪Gushiji≫, which is a ‘Complete Anthology of Old Poems’ of the Myung Dynasty. It is necessary to pay attention to ≪Caishutanggushixuan≫ among old anthologies of the Chung Dynasty as an anthology that affected ≪Gushiyuan≫. In addition, the ≪Gushishangxi≫ is an old anthologies of the Chung Dynasty that was affected by ≪Gushiyuan≫ in the times after it. This study selected 4 poetry anthologies such as ≪Gushiyuan≫, ≪Gushiji≫, ≪Caishutanggushixuan≫, and ≪Gushishangxi≫, and aimed to elucidate the associations among those anthologies by comparing the poems within Guyi section of each anthology. First of all, the perspectives of compliers for the Guyi poems were examined through the arrangement and volume of Guyi section in each anthology in terms of composition of those anthologies. The ≪Gushiji≫, which is a ‘Complete Anthology of Old Poems’ contained the Guyi poems in about 7% of the entire contents, ≪Gushiyuan≫ and ≪Gushishangxi≫ showed twice of ≪Gushiji≫, 13.6% and 13.7%, respectively, whereas ≪Caishutanggushixuan≫ exhibited only 5.4% of entire volume, demonstrating a discrepancy in perspective. Furthermore, unlike that ≪Gushiyuan≫ and ≪Gushishangxi≫ placed Guyi section at very first part of the entire composition, ≪Caishutanggushixuan≫ was reflecting different perspective on the Guyi poems by arranging the Guyi section in the last part of the anthology. Afterwards, this study organized the list of Guyi section in each anthology. It was identified that other anthologies except ≪Gushiyuan≫ have had sub-units according to the intention of compliers and have listed based on the sub-units. This indicates that the selected anthologies were reflecting the characteristics of each anthology in accordance with the reference of compliers. As a different comparison result, this study examined an overlapping rate of poems in the Guyi section of other three anthologies based on ≪Gushiyuan≫. The poems except only two poems in ≪Gushiji≫ were overlapped with those in ≪Gushiyuan≫. Therefore, it was able to confirm that ≪Gushiji≫ was a ‘Complete Anthology of Old Poems’ that played a role as meaningful data in completing ≪Gushiyuan≫. The ≪Caishutanggushixuan≫, which was completed slightly earlier than ≪Gushiyuan≫ in the same Chung Dynasty, also affected ≪Gushiyuan≫ with about 84% of overlapping rate. The ≪Gushishangxi≫, which was completed after ≪Gushiyuan≫, also showed about 67% of overlapping rate and the most similar tendency with ≪Gushiyuan≫ in arrangement of the Guyi poems. Based on the description so far, it is able to know that although 4 poetry anthologies such as ≪Gushiyuan≫, ≪Gushiji≫, ≪Caishutanggushixuan≫, and ≪Gushishangxi≫ exhibited a discrepancy in the volume and arrangement of Guyi section in entire works of each anthology, the characteristics of each anthology, for instance, sub-units of each, were shown when comparing the list of Guyi section. Moreover, as shown in the overlapping rate in the list of Guyi section, those anthologies were in association of succeeding and developing the poetry anthologies in the Chung Dynasty by affecting each other.
