Liquor's imagery appears frequently in Yan Shu's Zhu Yu Ci and Ou-Yang Xiu's Liu Yi Ci. Liquor plays different roles in their works. In both works, alcohol creates a happy atmosphere and helps secure deep, sincere friendships at the banquet. Liquor not only shows the writers' creative and rational thought but also exposes his sorrow, which others had never known. This thesis will try to analyze liquor in Yan Shu's Zhu Yu Ci and Ou-Yang Xiu's Liu Yi Ci. I will try to explain the features by comparing Liquor's imagery in Zhu Yu Ci and Liu Yi Ci. Using the writers' backgrounds I will attempt to explain the differences in style that take shape.
