Comparison of Tang and Song Poems In The Attitudes Towards Others As history moves from Tang to Song‚ the Chinese view about “others” undergoes great changes. This was reflected in the poems describing warfare at that time. The literature of both Tang and Song dynasties has signs of racial chauvinism. However‚ the Tang poets also expressed ambivalence about fighting the other and questioned the righteousness of war‚ while this ambiguity is hardly found in Song literature. The Tang was a
