Harper & Row, New York, 1964, first American edition.. 319 pp, large 8vo (9 3/8" H), hard cover in dust jacket. B&w frontispiece. "In this new edition of the 'Sonnets', Dr. Rowse sets forth his conclusions - and the reasons for them - on such long-disputed questions as the dating of the Sonnets, the i. dentity of Mr. W.H. and of the rival poet, and the nature of the two loves with which the poems are concerned. He then presents the Sonnets themselves in the best text he has been able to arrive at, based on the original though in modern spellin. g a nd punctuation. Each sonnet is followed by a prose paraphrase and by a commentary. Sometimes the commentary occupies only a few lines; in other cases it is much longer and includes such information about contemporary events as is essential fo. r a n understanding of the text. The reader more or less acquainted with Shakespeare's plays but unfamiliar with the Sonnets will find this volume the ideal introduction to their beauty, pasion and pain. And for the students hitherto balked by usa. ge s or references which have refused to yield up their meaning, Dr. Rowse's exposition and editorial notes make his edition invaluable."

Renditions / Chinese University Press, Hong Kong, (1980).. 282 pp, small 4to (10 5/8" H), hard cover in dust jacket. Chinese calligraphy, music examples, 2 color plates. "Tz'u originally was written to music to be sung; the word itself means 'song words' in Chinese. While the literary aspect of tz'u is d. erived from the five and seven-syllable lines of regulated verse or shih, its musical element can be traced back to the triumph, in the early T'ang dynasty, of popular foreign songs over native ones. Tz'u, in fact, is an overflow of shih. When . T ' a ng poetry could no longer express adequately man's more refined and delicate feelings, and when the simple quatrains could not longer contain the spirit of song, it was natural for a new genre to emerge...The approach of the present volume of . es sa ys and translations of tz'u is an intimate rather than a pedantic one, for its purpose is to take the poetry-loving reader, as it were, by the hand, and welcome him into a new world. It is an attempt to present a comprehensive view of tz'u p. oet ry, it s intrinsic qualities as well as the achievements of individual writers. Through the nine interpretive essays and the eight translations of individual tz'u poets in the present anthology, the reader will gain a deeper insight into tz'u . poet ry a nd s ee its continuity in the history of Chinese literature."

It speaks with an unusual combination of rural candour and urban sophistication. It is tempered by a poignant . awareness of seasonal dyings and renewals, but also by a wry recognition of human frailties, social deceptions and self-deceptions, the intensities and brevities of love - and by glimpses of the darker aspects of modern history that have touched the. consciousness of us all. The book opens on a life pausing at mid-point: taking the measure of its losses and gains in a strongly-felt country scene that is bracing and nourishing. It then moves backwards in time and outwards in space to explore. t he span of places, people and experiences that have led up to this situtation. Each moment, each poem, can be taken on its own, or as part of a larger story.
