Abstract

Poetry is an important form of traditional Chinese literature. Nowadays, Chinese language and literature departments of universities on both sides of the Taiwan Straits all offer courses related to classical poetry. However, due to the different major emphases and teaching methods of teachers in diverse universities, there are differences in the curriculum arrangement and teaching methods of classical poetry. Taking the school of literature and Media of Nanfang College of Sun Yat-sen University and the Chinese Department of Shih Hsin University as examples, this paper puts forward two similarities and differences between “Curriculum Arrangement” and “Curriculum Practice” based on the author's previous teaching experience, so as to analyze the current problems in the education of classical poetry in private universities between Taiwan and Mainland.
