    Description: The lantern light seems to have written a poem;they feel lonesome since i won't read them. | ??'lantern" by Fei Ming The work of Tang Dynasty Classical Chinese poets such as Li Bai, Du Fu, and Wang Wei has long been celebrated in both China and internationally, and various English translations and mistranslations of their work played a pivotal yet often unacknowledged role in shaping the emergence and evolution of modern Anglophone poetry. In The Lantern and the Night Moths, Chinese diaspora poet-translator Yilin Wang has selected and translated poems by five of China's most innovative modern and contemporary poets: Qiu Jin, Fei Ming, Dai Wangshu, Zhang Qiaohui, and Xiao Xi. Expanding on and subverting the long lineage of Classical Chinese poetry that precedes them, their work can be read collectively as a series of ars poeticas for modern Sinophone poetry. Wang's translations are featured alongside the original Chinese texts, and accompanied by Wang's personal essays reflecting on the art, craft, and labour of poetry translation. Together, these poems and essays chart the development of a myriad of modernist poetry traditions in China that parallel, diverge from, and sometimes intersect with their Anglophone and Western counterparts.

  • Waterstones An Anthology of Poetry by Buddhist Nuns of Late Imperial China

    Price: £22.99

    Brand: Waterstones

     

    Description: The Hsu-Tang Library presents authoritative and eminently readable translations of classical Chinese literature, in bilingual editions, ranging across three millennia and the entire Sinitic world. This anthology opens up new religious and poetic worlds for readers. It consists of translations of poems written by Buddhist nuns from China's late imperial period (1368-1911). Appreciation of these poems is enhanced by individual biographical accounts for each of the sixty-five nun-poets and an Introduction to the historical, religious, and literary context of these poems, including a concise discussion of Chinese Buddhism and Chinese Buddhist poetry. The nuns in this anthology come from a range of backgrounds: some were placed in convents when very young; others were former palace ladies or courtesans who found refuge in the religious life; others were women left widowed or destitute in the wake of the various political and social upheavals of the times, especially the violent transition between the Ming and Qing dynasties in the mid-seventeenth century. This period was also marked by a flourishing of women's culture, as more and more women from the gentry-class began not only to receive the classical education required to write poetry, but also to have their works printed and circulated. Most of the poet-nuns in this volume were from this gentry class, and almost all of them had at least one collection of writings, usually poetry, printed in their names. Although most of these collections are now lost, some of their poems have fortunately been preserved in various anthologies from this period, including anthologies dedicated exclusively to women's poetry, as well as in collections of Buddhist records.

  • Waterstones Hunger Mountain

    Price: £16.99

    Description: David Hinton's account of a series of walks up and around a mountain near his home in Vermont is nature writing of a profound sort: as we accompany him with his observations of the terrain, vegetation, and wildlife, we gain access to the view of someone who has, through his translation work, become intimate with the mind of the ancient Chinese sages. Taking on the mind of the sages ourselves, we begin to get a clear vision of our place in the landscape, the planet, and ultimately the cosmos. David's observations are informed by geology and astronomy, by his fascinating analysis of the development of the Chinese writing system, and by the lives and works of the poets he knows so well. It's presented with language of great beauty, and it all comes together into a consciousness-expanding assessment of the natural world and of our place in it.
