The Old Man Who Does as He Pleases - Selections from the Poetry and Prose of Lu Yu (Hardcover)

In an earlier volume in this series, the author set out to introduce the English reader to some of the representative works of Su Tung-p'o, the leading poet of the era known as the Northern Sung. The present volume is an attempt to do the same for the most important poet of the era that succeeded it, the Southern Sung, presenting selections from the poetry and prose of Lu Yu, better known in the Far East by his literary name Fang-weng, or 'The Old Man Who Does As He Pleases.'
