During this age the different facets of T’ang civilization achieved a free and rapid development; religion, the classical studies, arts, and literature all flourished side by side.

Thus, early in the eighth century the cultivation of literature had become routine in the imperial court. An early entry such as we find in the Ta T’ang Hsin Yü or New Anecdotes of the Great T’ang was typical:

The following two paragraphs from Ch’üan T’ang Shih Hua, or Poetry Anecdotes of the T’ang Dynasty, are equally revealing:
