This book is the first comprehensive study of Yuan Zhen's (779-831) twelve New Music Bureau poems in comparison with those of Bai Juyi (772-846). It argues that Yuan's poems are logically connected by music, ritual, and benevolence, and that he uses them as memorial to revive the Western Zhou order.
