On the Relationship Between Privately-Revised Books by Category and"Lv-Fu"in the Middle and Late Tang Dynasties
Although the"Lv-Fu"as a literary genre and the book by category as a book style belong to different fields and are produced in different times,they are naturally connected in terms of function,subject matter,and style.In the middle and late Tang dynasties,the privately-revised books and the"Lv-Fu"had a closer relationship on the basis of the above connection:both of them appeared in the same background of imperial examinations,and had similar generating mechanisms and political edification functions,and because of this,the privately-revised books of this period had a far-reaching influence on the institu-tional characteristics and theoretical propositions of the"Lv-Fu".
