Abstract: The compiling style of individual collections was established during the Six Dynasties and the Sui-Tang era, according to which only single poetry and prose were included, and academic works were excluded. Meanwhile, the core status of poetry in the genealogy of literary form was also established during this period of time. All of these above reflect the progress of the independence and consciousness of literature and its separation from scholarship. This traditional style was broken to different degrees after the Song Dynasty. In the Qing Dynasty, there were even numerous individual collections which specially collected academic works. These changes provide a valid field of vision for the investigation of the development and evolution of ancient literary ideas, such as the rise and fall of the status of poetry and prose, and the separation and reunion of "literature" and "scholarism".
