Professor Chou here offers a perspective on the rise and fall of
the Kung-an school as a key to understanding the development of
Chinese literary criticism in the late sixteenth and early
seventeenth centuries. His book focuses upon the literary theories
of Yuan Hung-tao (1568-1610) - the leader of the Kung-an school -
and his two brothers. Its core is a detailed study of the poetry
and prose of Yuan Hung-tao, comparing his theories with his
writings and analysing systematically the merits and flaws of his
work. The book concludes with a discussion of the legacy of the
Kung-an school, treating the school not only as the major force
behind the expressive trend in the late Ming period, but also as
one of the precursors of the modern Chinese literary movement.
