This book focuses on the connection and characteristics between Confucianism and literature from the early and prosperous Tang Dynasty to the middle and late Tang Dynasty, and re-examines the historical form, function, and status of Confucianism in different social and political contexts of the Tang Dynasty, such as the construction of identity in the early Tang Dynasty, the "classical" and "contemporary" debate during the reigns of Emperor Gaozong and Wu Zetian, the cultural spirit of poetry in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and the transformation of literature and Confucianism in the middle and late Tang Dynasty. It pays attention to the general relationship between literature and politics, as well as its significance as a "political action." While focusing on the impact of Confucianism on literary concepts, themes, forms, styles, and even cognitive patterns, it also pays attention to the value of literature as "a way of thinking."
