Tang poetry is one of the most valuable cultural inheritances of
Chinese history. Its distinctive aesthetics, delicate language and
diverse styles constitute great Literature in itself, as well as a
rich topic for literary study. This two-volume set constitutes a
classic analysis of Tang poetry in the "Golden Age" of Chinese
poetry (618-907 CE). This volume focuses on the prominent Tang
poets and poems. Beginning with an introduction to the "four
greatest poets"-Li Bai, Du Fu, Wang Wei, and Bai Juyi-the author
discusses their subjects, language, influence, and key works. The
volume also includes essays on a dozen of masterpieces of Tang
poetry, categorized by topics such as love and friendship,
aspirations and seclusion, as well as travelling and nostalgia. As
the author stresses, Tang poetry is worth rereading because it
makes us invigorate our mental wellbeing, leaving it powerful and
full of vitality. This book will appeal to researchers and students
of Chinese literature, especially of classical Chinese poetry.
People interested in Chinese culture will also benefit from the
book.
