One Hundred More Poems from the Chinese: Love and the Turning Year Rexroth KennethPaperback
Love and the Turning Year includes a selection from the Yueh Fu--folk songs from the Six Dynasties Period (fourth-fifth centuries A.D.). Some are attributed to legendary courtesans, while others may have been sung at harvest festivals or marriage celebrations. Most of the songs are simple, erotic lyrics.
Rexroth always translated Chinese poetry--as he said--"solely to please myself." And he created, with remarkable success, English versions which stand as poems in their own In addition to the folk songs, Rexroth offers a wide sampling of Chinese verse: works by 60 different poets, from the third century to our own time.
