"Seven Remonstrances" or "Seven Admonishments" (traditional Chinese: 七諫; simplified Chinese: 七谏; pinyin: Qī jiàn; "Seven Admonishments") is one of the 17 major sections of the ancient Chinese poetry collection Chu ci, also known as The Songs of the South or The Songs of Chu.

(Hawkes, 2011 [1985]: 245-246) In terms of poetic quality, Hawkes finds the Qi jian poems to be "extremely derivative" of the other Chu ci pieces, and he further describes them as "a long, almost unrelieved litany of complaint which progresses by mere accumulation and ends only when the poet, reader and metaphor are all three exhausted." (Hawkes, 2011 [1985]: 246). (en)
