Classic of Poetry
The ''Classic of Poetry'', also ''Shijing'' or ''Shih-ching'', translated variously as the ''Book of Songs'', ''Book of Odes'', or simply known as the ''Odes'' or ''Poetry'' () is the oldest existing collection of Chinese poetry, comprising 305 works dating from the 11th to 7th centuries BC. It is one of the "Five Classics" traditionally said to have been compiled by Confucius, and has been studied and memorized by scholars in China and neighboring countries over two millennia. Since the Qing dynasty, its rhyme patterns have also been analysed in the study of Old Chinese phonology.

Early references refer to the anthology as the ''300 Poems'' (''shi''), with a typically inexact use of "three hundred". ''The Odes'' first became known as a ''jīng'', or a "classic book", in the canonical sense, as part of the Han Dynasty official adoption of Confucianism as the guiding principles of Chinese society. The same word ''shi'' later became a generic term for poetry. In English, lacking an exact equivalent for the Chinese, the translation of the word ''shi'' in this regard is generally as "poem", "song", or "ode". Before its elevation as a canonical classic, the ''Classic of Poetry'' (''Shi jing'') was known as the ''Three Hundred Songs'' or ''the Songs''.
