Lu Ji (26 1 ~ 303) was a writer in the western Jin dynasty. Known as the "land plain", the grandson of Lu Xun, a famous Dongwu star, and his brother Lu Yun are collectively called "Erlu". Lu Ji was the most famous writer of Taikang (280-289) and Yuankang (29 1-299) in the Western Jin Dynasty, and was praised as "Taikang's English" by later generations. As far as his creative practice is concerned, his poems are full of words (Zhong Rong's poems), which pay attention to artistic forms and techniques and represent the main tendency of Taikang literature. As far as his literary theory is concerned, his "Wen Fu" is the first systematic creative theory in the history of China's literary theory development, which has had an important impact on later literary creation and theoretical development. Lu Ji's talents are manifold. In addition to literary creation, he has also made many achievements in history and art.

Lu Ji is known as "Taikang English". Poems handed down from ancient times 104, mostly Yuefu poems and quasi-ancient poems. Representative works include A Gentleman's Journey, A Narrow and Evil Journey in Chang 'an, Going to Luodao to Do Business and so on. Liu Xie's "Wen Xin Diao Long Yuefu" said: "Constant, virtuous and good. "Zhong Rong commented on the volume of Poetry:" The Jin Plain is a land machine. It originated in Chen Si. High talent, high writing and gorgeous figure. Not as good as business, not as good as writing. It's still a rule. It's not expensive or right. It's a hurtful surprise. However, he chews Huaying, and he is bored with it. The article is also a fountain. Zhang Gong lamented that he was brilliant and believed it! "

There are 27 existing poems, among which the outstanding ones are Wen Fu, Mourning Fu and Missing Fu. In prose, besides the famous On Death, the masterpiece is Hanging Wei Wudi. Lu Ji also imitated Yang Xiong's "Julian Style" and wrote 50 songs "Performing Julian". The essay Wen Xin Diao Long calls many imitations of Yang Xiong's works "to be transparent, to get into the fish's eye", and only recommends Lu Ji's works: "Only a scholar can balance his thoughts, manage a new culture, and cut chapters and sentences, which is wider than the old works. Do you admire Zhu Zhong's four inches? " My husband's writing is small and relaxed, so I can consider leisure. It is enough to make the meaning clear, the object round and smooth, and the Lei Lei rotates, which can be called pearl ears. "Lu Ji's composition has a harmonious melody, duality and rich allusions, which has created a precedent for parallel prose. Zhang Hua said to him: "People are just articles, and they often hate only a few, and children suffer more." His younger brother Lu Yun once wrote to him: "When Miao Jun saw his brother's works, he wanted to burn his pen and inkstone. "Later, Ge Hong wrote a book, saying that" machine writing is still the product of mysterious garden jade, but it is nothing more than shining, five rivers spit out, and the spring water is the same. "The momentum is magnificent and beautiful, and it is unique in a generation!" Liu Xie's Wen Xin Diao Long Cai lue commented on his poem: "Lu Ji only wants to have a deep view, and his words are wide, so he can think skillfully, but not excessively." In the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Qian praised: "After Beihai, the only person".

In addition, Lu Ji has also made great achievements in historiography, including the Book of Jin, Wu Shu (unfinished) and Luoyang Ji.

In the Ming Dynasty, Zhang Pu's "133 episodes of celebrities in the Han, Wei and Six Dynasties" included "Lu Pingyuan Collection". 1982, Zhonghua Book Company published Jin Ji Ji Jie.
