The Shijing (Classic of Poetry) is the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry, comprising 305 works dating from the 11th to 7th centuries BC. Traditionally compiled by Confucius, it is a cornerstone of the Confucian canon. By balancing raw emotion with moral lessons, the Shijing shaped Chinese literary aesthetics and political thought for millennia.
