As the essence of Chinese traditional culture, classical Chinese
poetry in Singapore played a very important role in the social and
cultural development of Singapore's Chinese community. Numerous
poems depicted the unique scenery of tropical rainforest and the
customs with a Nanyang flavor, recorded the various historical
events from the colonial era, the World War II to the independent
nation, and reflected the poets' multiple feelings. This book
sketches out the brief history of classical Chinese poetry in
Singapore over a hundred years, and focuses on the complex identity
of poets from different generations, the function of literary
societies in the construction of cultural space and the influence
of modern media on the development of classical Chinese poetry
based on the text interpretation. In addition, the author attempts
to define different types of poetry writing using diaspora
literature and Sinophone literature. The discussion of these topics
will not only expand the research horizon of Chinese literature,
but also provide a meaningful reference to the studies of the
worldwide Chinese overseas, especially in Southeast Asia.
