Thesis Title: A Study on the Classical Poetry Shi and Lyrics Ci Written by “Poets from the Mainland” in Twentieth Century Hong Kong

Thesis Research Area:
In the history of literature of Hong Kong, “Authors from  the Mainland” is not simply a kind of “regional indication”, but a concrete and objective reality. Due to the cross-cultural background of authors who are from Mainland China, their writing in classical-style Chinese and the transition of mentality behind writing are not only  important  to the history of literature, but also a significant perspective used to explore the construct of identity of literati in Hong Kong.
