Nine Regrets : ウィキペディア英語版 | Nine Regrets "Nine Regrets" () is the 11th of the 17 major sections of the ancient Chinese poetry collection ''Chu ci'', also known as ''The Songs of the South'' or ''The Songs of Chu''. The "Nine Regrets" consists of nine verses plus an envoi (''luan''), each individually titled, written according to the Han Dynasty literary revival style based upon the earlier (pre-Han) pieces in the ''Chu ci'' anthology. The "Nine Regrets" is one of the several collections of poems grouped under the title of "Nine" something-or-others, which do not necessarily consist of 9 pieces of poetry. One of the older of them, ''Jiu ge'' ("Nine Songs") consists of 11 individual pieces: "nine" in antiquity was often used as a synonym for "many", and in the context of the ''Chu ci'' generally refers to a musical arrangement with "nine" modal changes. (Hawkes, 2011 (): 36-37) The "Nine Regrets" poems are attributed to the Shu poet Wang Bao () who flourished during the reign of Emperor Xuan (r. 74 BCE – BCE 49). (Hawkes, 2011 (): 269-270) ==Title== The Han era literary revival of the ''Chu ci'' style of poetry included the use of many historical allusions to the past events related to events which occurred during the existence of the Kingdom of Chu, which had been annexed by the state of Qin in BCE 223. These are events which are alluded to in the older ''Chu ci'' pieces, especially the ''Li Sao'', which included the relationship between the "loyal minister" Qu Yuan who was "slandered at court", and thus, "lost the favor of his lord", King Huai of Chu. The Chinese characters in the title of the "Nine Regrets", in their traditional form are 九懷. In modern Chinese the character 九 means the ''quantity'' of 9, whereas anciently 九 was used more symbolically, representing some ''quality'' of 9: in this case a reference to the older sections of the ''Chu ci'', such as the "Jiu Ge" (or, "Nine Songs"), which itself consists of 11 verses. The character 懷 may refer to ''huái'', meaning "regret"; but, it is also the posthumous name used for King Huai of Chu (his given name, also Huai, was represented by the character 槐).
