A Cantonese song entitled Creoy Keok lrio Aa Gao
Among the many ballads and popular songs of Canton appears one Southern Air called ‘Apart from Number Nine’. Several stories are centred about the composition of this air. Around the 1820's and 1830's, the most sought after singing-girl in Canton seemed to be one named Number Nine. In a recent article by Jean Yow-wen (Kan Yau-man) there is a version of this song (pp. 25–6), attributed to Jrip Mrerng-shanqx with its background history. A few lines…
Tsaur Jyr and the Introduction of Fannbay into China
Fannbay, to quote the definition of the 'Dictionary of Chinese Buddhist terms' are 'Buddhist hymns [which are] sung to repress externals and calm the mind within2 for religious service; also in praise of Buddha'. The first element, Fann, a transliteration of Brahma, refers to the Indian origin of the term, the second element, bay, is the Chinese transliteration of pāṭha 'chanting'. Under the name Fannbay this type of Buddhist chant as developed i…

IN Tsaur Jyr's Collected Works (Tsaur Jyi Chyuampyng)1 we find under the title Chieh Baurminq two stanzas, together with a few fragments, believed to be parts of the poem, gleaned from commentaries to works other than Tsaur Jyr's and from the encyclopaedia Beeitarng-Shuchau.2 The title of this poem (literally: 'I am ill-fated') suggests the story of an ill-fated lady, deserted by her husband or lover, reduced to dire poverty and therefore constan…

Some Notes on the Authorship of the Lii Ling/Su Wuu Letters—II
In my first article on this question the following conclusions were reached: (1) that all the five letters referred to were spurious; and (2) that letters 1, 2, and 3 were probably written by one and the same author. In this article I shall attempt to show that the themes, style, and atmosphere of the three letters in question lead to the further conclusion that their author was probably Jiang Ian of the Liang Dynasty ( tzyh Wen-tong , A.D. 444–5…
Some Notes on the Authorship of the Lii Ling/Su Wuu Letters—I
A. The Story of Su Wuu and Lii Ling As is well known, the authorship of the Lii Ling/Su Wuu letters is disputed. Before embarking on the re-examination of this question which is the main purpose of the present paper, I wish to recall the story of Su Wuu and Lii Ling as it can be gathered from the relevant material embedded in Ban Guh's Hann Shu , in order to provide appropriate data for comparison with what is stated or implied in the letters. I …
Some Notes on the Tsyr
The tsyr are a comparatively late development in the history of Chinese poetry and less well known in the West than the shy , of which many translations exist. It may be interesting to look at a few examples of tsyr and a few elementary rules of their composition so as to be able to distinguish them from shy and to appreciate their special qualities
