Question

In a poem in this form, Master Improbable, Lord No-Such, and Sir Vacuous debate the merits of their realms’ hunting parks. A critical work on this form, which is itself titled for and written in this form, has been translated as Essay on Literature and The Art of Writing, and inspired Gary Snyder with its notion that “the model is indeed near at hand” when using an ax to carve an ax-handle. Sīmǎ Xiāngrú was a master of this “epideictic” (“epi-DIKE-tick”) form, (15[1])which typically presented descriptions of places or objects and were recited rather than (*) sung. This form is variously translated as “poetic exposition,” “prose-poem,” (-5[1])and “rhapsody.” This dominant poetic form of the Han Dynasty (10[1])is a homonym in English with the given name (-5[1])of the poet (10[1])of “Spring View,” (10[1])who suggested it was (10[1])better to have daughters (-5[1])than sons who will be “buried amid the grass.” (-5[1])For 10 points, identify this given name of the poet of “Ballad of The Army Carts.” ■END■ (10[9]0[1])
