%X The late Ming Dynasty (1628-1644) saw the emergence of a well-known literary group in the Songjiang area of East China's Shanghai. Known as Songjiang Jishe or Jishe Society in Songjiang, this organization brought together local scholars to engage in academic studies of preparations for imperial civil service examinations, and to create a literary atmosphere, thus promoting the further development of local literature. Another group deriving from Jishe Society was called Yunjian Cipai or Cloud School of Ci-poetry. These two literary groups developed side by side while enhancing each other's strengths. Firstly, Jishe Society provided the Cloud School with a favorable environment in which ci-poetry would develop healthily, while the Cloud School remained interactive with Jishe Society. Secondly, Chen Zilong, the leader of Jishe Society, played a key role in the birth and development of the Cloud School. Of all the noted scholars in the society there was only Chen Zilong who made continued contributions to the development of ci-poetry in terms of practical production and theoretical achievement, thereby establishing himself in ci circles. So, it was none other than Chen that was fully qualified to lead the Cloud School. Thirdly, Jishe Society and the Cloud of Ci-poetry grew together for a considerably long time. The society served as the most ideal place where ci-poems could be composed, discussions about the art of composing poetry be carried out, and poets be stored and developed. In this context, the Cloud School exerted a strong influence on Songjiang and its neighboring areas, promoting the prosperity of ci-poetry in the Taihu area in east China and laying down a good foundation for the rising of poems in the Qing Dynasty.
