brief introduction

Fang Kui's poems are better than Lan's, which is based on his teacher he menggui's qianzhaiji. In Ming Dynasty, Shang Fu thought that his poems were "gentle and generous, and his works were carved and polished, which was enough to observe his master's thought of elegance" (a biography of Fang Kui in selected poems of Yuan Dynasty). During the Ming Dynasty, Zhou Zhen, his fellow countryman, wrote a preface to Fushan lazy manuscript, saying that his words were elegant and not restricted by the syllables of the genre. In his poems, he is not careful in conception and exercises his language. Instead, he writes with lingering sentiment, lively and interesting style.

On the whole, his five character poem is more powerful than his seven character poem. For example, the poem "Longwen double Swords" in Guyi is about the work of his youth. It has a heroic atmosphere and a sense of opportunity. Another "Yellow Crane in the Liaohai sea" seems to be written after retiring. It uses Ding Lingwei's allusion to show the integrity of the world. The idea of the past has turned into today's journey of self-improvement. landscape works such as "early travel" show the mood of early travelers, depict the scene of dawn, detailed and realistic. All these poems are elegant and elegant. Fang Kui has many works about the countryside and farming, which have the flavor of rural life and a peaceful atmosphere. Even in the remote countryside, there is a different scenery. However, he did not look at the countryside completely from the perspective of literati. He worked himself and wrote the peasants' ploughing, planting, working and gaining into the poems, and put his own image into them, which is rare in the general pastoral poems. Gu Sili of Qing Dynasty pointed out that Wen Tianxiang was written in his poems of Min Zhong, and Jia Sidao was written in his poems of punishing traitors, "his sense of loyalty is awe inspiring.". The social upheaval caused by the yuan army's pacification of Jiangnan is also reflected in his poems. For example, the desolation of "the fox in the ancient road becomes strange, and the ghost in the deep mountain makes a man" described in late autumn is the result of the war. There are many beautiful lines in his poems, many of which have been quoted in selected poems of Yuan Dynasty, praising him for his "many elegant lines". He is the author of ten volumes of Fushan lazy manuscript. His life and deeds can be found in Wanxing Tongpu, Volume 49, biography of selected poems of the Yuan Dynasty, and song and Yuan Xuean, Volume 82.
