The Compilation Characteristics ofShi Ci Tong Yunand Its Observance to Prosody

Different from the method used in specialized books such as " Shen Shi Ci rhyme" to summarize the rhyme of old Ci,Pu Yinzi's " Shi Ci Tong yun" focused on the phonological characteristics of the Ci,based on the consideration of reflecting the musical attributes, the "Tongyin" formed by the combination of Zhongzhou dialect and northern and southern dialects was used as the basis for the rhyme arrangement, resulting in 20 parts for flat tones, 20 parts for rising tones, and 9 parts for entering tones.In term of style, using "Tongyin" as a clue, it connects the rhyme of ancient style poetry, rhyme of modern style poetry, ci rhyme, and southern Qu rhyme,presenting the characteristic of including various literary styles.Its Ci rhyme is closely related to the rhyme of southern Qu, which is related to Pu Yinzi's concept of Ci style tonality.Based on the perspective of phonology, Pu Yinzi's exploration of Ci rhyme did not emphasize the observation of ancient Ci, but rather focused on the construction of Ci rhyme with a "phonological" aspect.
