Tangshi baimingjia quanji (), a collection of the "Complete/Collected Hundred Notable Masters of Tang Poetry", also known as Baijia Tangshi (ç¾家åÂÂè¯Â) or Tangren baijia shi (Ã¥ÂÂ人ç¾家è¯Â), is a comprehensive anthology of Tang poetry, compiled by the Qing dynasty bibliophile Xi Qiyu å¸Âå¯寠(1650âÂÂ1702) in Suzhou and completed in the 47th year of the Kangxi reign (1708).
The collection includes the works by 100 poets from the Dali (766âÂÂ779) era of the Tang dynasty up to the Five Dynasties period. It begins with Liu Zhangqing Ã¥ÂÂé¿å¿ and Qian Qi é±起, and ends with the poets of the Five Dynasties, Wang Zhou and Wang Zhenbai , arranged according to the year in which the authors passed the imperial examination. Prominent Tang poets such as Li Bai and Du Fu were deliberately excluded, as their works were already widely available. Each volume contains a brief biography of the poet, critical commentary by later scholars, and textual notes.
The anthology preserves numerous poems from the mid and late Tang periods, including pieces not found in the Quan Tangshi (Complete Tang Poems), and is notable for combining biography, commentary, and textual criticism into a single compilation format. It is regarded as an important source for the study of mid- and late-Tang poetry.
The Hanyu da zidian, for example, makes use of it for the works of the poets Lang Shiyuan , Han Hong é©ç¿Â, Gu Kuang 顾åµ, Dai Shulun æÂ´åÂÂ伦, Geng Wei , Sikong Shu å¸空æÂÂ, Lu Lun å¢纶, Zhang Ji å¼ ç»§, Zhang Hu å¼ ç¥Â, Gu Feixiong , Yu Fen , Yu Fu , Ma Dai , Fang Gan æÂ¹å¹², Luo Ye , Cao Song , and Tang Yanqian .
