Description

This book is a pioneering collection of scholarly articles on contemporary Chinese poetry. Contemporary Chinese poetry has long enjoyed a fervent following in mainland China, Taiwan and Hong Kong, and it is built upon one of the most glorious poetic traditions of any civilization in the world. Aside from the ground-breaking work of Michelle Yeh, Maghiel Van Crevel, and a few other scholars, however, it has been all too neglected by scholars in English. This volume brings together fresh scholarship from an array of experts on contemporary Chinese poetry in a comprehensive volume that offers readable and provocative treatments of many of the most important Chinese poets of our age.
