On "the Wild Goose"

Abstract

"The Wild Goose" is the image that often appears in China′s classical poesy, representing the exchanges of the letter and the transmission of information, and expressing the scholar′s homesick feelings. The image of "the Wild Goose" also appears in Li Qing-zhao′s two poems, "Yi Jian Mei" and "Sheng Sheng Man," which express the poetess′ unique and exquisite affection.
