Nanjing was the literary center of the Six Dynasties. In the eighth year of Yongming in the Eastern Jin Dynasty (AD 409), the poet Xie Tiao wrote the poem "Splendid Jiangnan, Imperial City of Jinling, winding clear water, propping up Zhu Loutai all the way" in "Into Han Ge". This poem is about the glory and prosperity of Jinling Imperial City and the enterprising spirit of fame and fortune. Prince Zhaoming edited the anthology here, and Liu Xie wrote Wen Xin Diao Long here ... Some scholars believe that the literary tradition of the Six Dynasties left Nanjing with an atmosphere of "classical gold powder, charming color, lightness and novelty, and romance", making Nanjing the first choice for studying the literature of the Six Dynasties today [18].

In the Tang Dynasty, Nanjing, as a deserted ancient capital, still attracted many poets and writers to linger here and lament the changes of the world. Among all the poets, Li Bai has deep feelings for Nanjing. Li Bai once lived in various places and stayed in Jinling for the longest time. Li Bai wrote nearly 200 poems about Nanjing, including no less than 20 poems about Jinling, among which the famous ones are Long March, Landing on the Phoenix Terrace in Nanjing and Parting Nanjing Restaurant. After the Anshi Rebellion, Li Bai also suggested moving the capital to Jinling, and wrote "Please invite the capital to Jinling for Song Zhongcheng". Jinling's nostalgic poems became a major genre in the Tang Dynasty, such as the second poem "There are weeds on the Suzaku Bridge, and the sun sets in Wuyi Xiangkou" in the poet Liu Yuxi's "Poems of Nostalgia". In the old society, Wang Xietang died in front of swallows and flew into the homes of ordinary people. " I also recalled the old story of Xibao Mountain: "Since Wang Jun led the ship down from Yizhou, the imperial ghost languished in Nanjing. The long Zhang Qian chain sank to the bottom of the river, and a flag was lowered on the stone wall. How many sad past in life, the mountains still remain cold. Now is the day when the China world is unified. The ancient fortress is full of ruins and autumn reeds. " In Du Mu's Bo Qinhuai, there is "the smoke cage is full of sand in the cold month, and the night is near Qinhuai restaurant." Businessmen and women don't know how to hate the country, but they still sing the famous poem "backyard flowers" to cross the river. Wang Changling, a poet, used to be Jiangning Cheng in Nanjing, and is known as "the poet Jiangning in Wang Changling" (Wang Changling was born in Nanjing).

Born in Nanjing, Li Yu, the queen of the Southern Tang Dynasty, is a famous poet, praised by Wang Guowei as "a pronoun Sect", and has written many famous sentences, such as "Why is it worrying, just like a river flowing eastward". In the Song Dynasty, in10/0, Fan Zhongyan, aged 2 1 0, went to Nanjing Yingtianfu Academy (one of the four famous academies in the Song Dynasty) to study, and wrote a famous sentence: "Worry about the world first, and enjoy the world later", 10 15. Wang Anshi once lived in Nanjing for a long time, regarded Nanjing as his hometown, and was finally buried in the Mid-Levels Garden at the foot of Zhongshan.

In the early years of the Qing Dynasty, Wu settled in Qinhuai River in Nanjing, also known as Qinhuai Guest, and wrote Nanjing Jinshi, which described the scenery of Nanjing and the activities of literati in great detail. For example, "there is a river in the city, and the Qinhuai River is ten miles east and west. The water is full, boating, playing flute and drums, day and night. When there is moonlight in Qinhuai, the deeper the night, the more and more boat songs are played, which are sad and euphemistic and touching. Girls living in houses on both sides of the river, dressed in veils and jasmine flowers, rolled up the curtains in Hunan and leaned against the railings to listen. Therefore, when the drums of the lantern boat sounded, the curtains on both sides were rolled open, and the burning Long Xianxiang and agarwood in the river room were sprayed out together, which combined with the moonlight smoke in the river and looked like a fairy in Yuen Long, but also like a fairy from a distance. " [19], even lamenting that vendors and pawns in Nanjing exude an unreasonable cultural atmosphere (Smoke in the Six Dynasties). After work, they had to "eat a pot of water in Yongning Spring and go back to Yuhuatai to see the sunshine" [20]. Cao Xueqin, the author of A Dream of Red Mansions, was also from Nanjing. It was not until the Cao family was confiscated in the sixth year of Yongzheng that her family moved back to Beijing. 12 main female characters in A Dream of Red Mansions were also named "Twelve Women in Jinling". In the early Qing Dynasty, Kong's famous drama Peach Blossom Fan was set in Nanjing in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, which described the love story of Fu She literati and Li, a famous prostitute who was one of the eight beauties in Qinhuai. Yuan Mei, a famous scholar in Qing Dynasty, also chose to settle in Nanjing and build a garden in the west of the city.

In the early years of the Republic of China, on August 22nd, 1923, both Zhu Ziqing and Yu Pingbo wrote an essay of the same name, Qinhuai River in the shadow of oars and lights [2 1]. In the1930s, Pearl Buck also finished the novel The Good Earth, which won her the Nobel Prize in Literature. In modern times, Nanjing was still one of the cities with active literary creation, and a number of famous writers such as Ye and Su Tong appeared. In addition, The Complete Poems of Tang Dynasty, Song Ci and Yongle Dadian were also compiled in Nanjing. Even Wei Yuan's (and Lin Zexu's) first masterpiece Seeing the World, Hong Ren's China's first masterpiece of capitalist thought "Senior Minister" (as well as the previous life tenure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and the later far-reaching Provisional Constitution of the Republic of China) and Li Shizhen's medical masterpiece "Compendium of Materia Medica" were written or published in Nanjing. During the Ming Dynasty, Nanjing imperial academy (Nanjian), as two major official cultural publishing institutions in China, edited and published a large number of documents and books, far exceeding that of Beijing imperial academy (Beijian) in the same period. History calls these books Nan Jian Ben.
