by David Hinton

  • LITERATURE
  • 1993
  • PAPER
  • 92 PAGES

A portrait of the mountain and landscapes of peasant China and the pleasures of rural life by the great poet, ably rendered into contemporary English by David Hinton. A revered figure, T'ao Ch'ien (365-427 A.D.) writes with immediacy of his direct experience, which makes his poems seem remarkably modern.  (CHN315, $11.00)
