4.9/5 (34297 ratings)

Description:The Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE) was a golden age of culture and arts in China that produced some of the greatest poets the world has ever known. Among them, Li Bai, Du Fu and Wang Wei were three of the era’s finest. In the centuries following their time, their influence has not only remained strong in China, but has also spread to other cultures worldwide. The wide range of subjects they wrote about—absent loved ones, military campaigns, food and drink, wistful music, the changing seasons—still strike a chord with readers today. This book contains some of the best poems by these poets, in the original Chinese writing and accompanied by several English translations. It also includes background on the lives and times of the three poets and on Chinese poetry in general. Whether you read Chinese or not, you will be able to see how each character has a literal meaning that translators have used to create interpretations of the original poems—sometimes quite different from one another—that allow us to experience the flavor of a centuries-old Chinese art form.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
