Mountain Home: The Wilderness Poetry of Ancient China
The giants of T'ang Dynasty poetry-Wang Wei (701-761), Li Po (701-762), Tu Fu (712-770)-along with poets earlier and later are represented in this set of translations by Hinton, who has published 10 previous books of ancient Chinese translations, including the Tao Te Ching and The Analects. As T'ao Ch'ien (365-427) writes: "When I chant, words come clear. And in wine/ I touch countless distances."Copyright 2002 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
