This study explores the heightened Southern Song interest in Zhaojun(昭君)-themed poetry, and links it to shifting Sino-barbarian ideologies. Unlike Northern Song figures like Wang Anshi(王安石), who acknowledged the notion of“Hu’s deeper kindness(胡恩深)”, Southern Song poets vehemently rejected this view, instead framing Hu-Han relations as an irreconcilable racial divide. Post-Jingkang(靖康), Northern references like“Xiongnu(匈奴)”gave way to dehumanizing rhetoric (“wolves,”“beasts”), reflecting hardened ethnic hostility. While Northern Song responses to Wang’s Song of Mingfei (明妃曲) tolerated“Hu superiority,”Southern works erased such ambiguity. This evolution demonstrates how political trauma reshaped literary treatments of a long-standing and“hackneyed”theme, offering a microcosm of elite identity formation in the Song dynasty |
