He was born in Wuxing, Zhejiang province. He made his name in Kyoto, Japan. He was one of the first to write in the new style and he published his poems in periodicals such as La Jeunesse (New Youth) and X?ncháo (??, The Renaissance). Two works that made him famous were S?nxián Jí (???) and Qi?míng Jí (???). He also wrote poems in the classical style. In his poems, he used rhyme and alliteration similarly to the way they had come to be used in classical poetry. He was professor in several universities, and later became president of Beiping University. Around 1950, his poems appeared prominently in the literature supplement of the newspapers Guangming Daily, Wen Hui Bao, and Jiefang Daily. He was also known as a calligrapher. He was director of a research institute and published historical studies on calligraphy. During the Cultural Revolution (1966-76) Shen, already in his 80s, was tortured by the Red Guards. The Red Guards were against all non-communist forms of art and culture and declared Shen a counter-revolutionary.
