Shejiang Ciis a collection of poems written by Shen Zufen, a modern poetess. The collection was later noted by Cheng Qianfan, her husband. Cheng's notes mainly reflected his understanding of Shejiang Ci. From a Hermeneutic perspective, it is important to discuss the necessity, possibility, effectiveness, relativity and inevitability of Cheng's notes. First, the notes were necessary because Shejiang Ci adopted rhetorical strategies such as metaphors and analogy as well as a documentary approach. Second, the notes were possible because Cheng was Shen's husband, and Cheng also had the favorable social environment to do the work. Third, the notes were effective because Cheng's approach allowed him to note the metaphorical features of the poems. Fourth, the notes were relative because they were limited to Cheng's understanding of Shejiang Ci. Last, the notes were inevitable in light of the spirit of academic research. For Cheng, the notes not only revealed the truth in Shejiang Ci, but also inevitably his own experience of the truth of life.
