王和卿
元
Wang Heqing was an early Yuan dynasty sanqu writer from Daming. His dates are uncertain. A contemporary of figures such as Guan Hanqing, he was known for a witty, free, and playful temperament. His surviving songs often depict urban life, romantic situations, satire, and worldly humor. His language is lively, colloquial, and sharply observant. In the "One Half · On Love" sequence, he excels at capturing the coyness, longing, complaint, and emotional instability of women in love through small everyday details.
