Flying Flower Order: Flowers

1. Read selectively by theme or dynasty, grouping works about spring and summer flowers against those on reflections on life for comparison.
2. Before reading each poem, first try to fathom its meaning yourself, then check the annotations and brief analysis to see whether your understanding is on target.
3. Copy the verses onto cards and play “花”-based feihualing with family and friends, memorizing while playing.
4. Read alongside the “风” volume to observe how the same poet uses different imagery.

China Culture and History Press has long devoted itself to modern and contemporary literature and culture-and-history reading matter, with publishing directions centered on classic works, social novels, prose and miscellaneous writings, and Eastern philosophy, alongside culture-and-history periodicals such as Zongheng. Among the more than 1,500 titles in the collection, representative books include Zhang Henshui's Ti Xiao Yin Yuan, Lu Xun's Complete Classic Works (10 volumes) and Wild Grass, and Lao She's Four Generations Under One Roof series and the boxed set of Lao She's Classic Works (10 volumes), while its author resources are concentrated on figures such as Zhang Henshui, Lu Xun, Lao She and Sima Qian. Its publishing character lies in solid editorial work on culture-and-history source texts and in issuing famous authors' works in sets, balancing the readability of individual texts with the systematic presentation of complete collections for focused reading and collecting. Beyond these directions, public information on the press's contemporary original publishing is limited, so it is not elaborated here.
