作者為知名的詩人、詞人與教授，站在兼具創作與研究能力的高點，處理古代詩文時，能夠深入到常人所看不見的內涵底蘊。他的研究也富地域開創性，不但嫻熟於中國文籍史料，對於韓國和越南，也有深廣的掌握。在近年GIS研究興起之前，率先提倡以GPS、衛星地圖、老地圖數化、天文程式等新科技輔助現地考察，希望把古典文學研究帶入到可驗證的現代科學體系。這些思想觀念與實際作法，均在書中一一闡說，是一本實用的著作。
On-site research is a newly-developed methodology for the study of classical Chinese literature. This book introduces the method and presents scholars working on classical Chinese poetry in ancient East Asia with five standardized steps for performing on-site research. It begins by explaining how poets desired to picture things as they were, making on-site research, and the use of GPS, a necessary approach to the study of poetry. Eight case studies follow, of (1) Sun Qiao and Baoxie Road, (2) Bai Juyi and Lantian Road, (3) Wang Wei and Wangchuan, (4) Collected Poems in Wangchuan, (5) Landscape at Wangchuan, (6) Nguyễn Bỉnh Khiêm, a Vietnamese poet of the Mạc Dynasty, and the Bạch Vân Am, (7) the Koryo poet Li Qixian and E’mei, Chengdu, and (8) the Koryo poet Liu Chenglung and Chong chou. These practical examples serve as a handbook for the scholar who wishes to learn this method of research.
Both a poet and a professor, the author has insight into Chinese classical literature thanks to his ability to both write and research poems. His research expertise also crosses regional boundaries, covering Korea, Vietnam and China. Before the rise of GIS research, the author had already put forward the idea that modern technology including GPS, satellite maps, digitalized ancient maps, and astronomical computing should be brought into on-site research, hoping to bring the study of classical Chinese literature into the realm of verifiable modern science. All these ideas and their applications are featured in this book.
