About This Item

Athens, Ohio: Ohio University Press, 1985. 195 pp, large 8vo (9 1/4" H). "This first critical study of major contemporary Chinese poets in English treats the work of Chi Hsien, Cheng Ch'ou-yu, Chou Meng-tieh, Lomen, Yungtzu, Ya Hsien, Yip Wai-lim , Wu Sheng, and Yu Kuang-chung. Ranging from the classically inspired to the highly experimental, their works represent some of the most important poetry written in the post-1949 period in China. Professor Lin grounds her study in the scrutiny of many individual poems and illustrates her discussion with fresh translations of modern poems throughout. Her comments on specific poets and poems are succinct and perceptive and should be of great value to students, specialists, and general readers. The selected bibliography lists both English and Chinese sources." Previous owner's chop (stamp) on free front endpaper, minor wrinkling at bottom of spine. Dust jacket has minor edge wear, light creasing at top of front flap and slightly at top of rear panel. . First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good+/Very Good.
