Classic of Songs
The first poetry collection in China, the Shi jing, or Classic of Songs, was compiled in the pre-Qin period (times before 221 BCE), and consists of 305 poems written in the 500-odd years between the early Western Zhou dynasty and the mid-Spring and Autumn period (ca. 1100–ca. 600 BCE).

《詩經》與《詩三百》有何關係?
《詩經》是產生於先秦時代的中國第一部詩歌總集,共收入自西周初年至春秋中期大約五百多年的詩歌三百零五篇。它是中國詩歌文學的光輝起點,也是中華文化的載體和文明發達最早的標誌。

《詩經》裡的愛情有多動人?
以戀愛和婚姻為題材的作品在《詩經》中佔很大比重,或寫單戀相思之苦,或書幽期密約之冀盼,或寫追求思慕之無奈,或寫歡敍相見之甜美。其中有不少是清新可喜、具有優美情思、打動讀者心弦的優秀之作。
