Brief Rest in the Garden of Flourishing Grace: Poems of Remembrance and Loss by the Manchu Prince Yihuan
Schwarcz, Vera (ed.)
Descrizione Brossura editoriale di 92 pagine con alcune illustrazioni in nero intercalate. Traduzioni dal cinese di Vera Schwarcz. Copia in condizioni pari al nuovo di un libro esaurito e non comune -- Remembered chiefly as the father and grandfather of the last rulers of Imperial China, Yihuan (1840-1891) was a gifted and prolific poet whose work represents the last glowing embers of the Confucian school. Working from the original Chinese, poet Vera Schwarcz captures the spirit and humanity of a philosopher-statesman cast aside by the landslide of history. In these wonderful poems by the last patriarch of the Qing Dynasty, Ms. Schwarcz probes with her own poetic artistry the consolation of memory, forging a profound link between old and new, east and west, history and poetry. Though her selection represents but a small part of Yihuan's considerable output, there is a greatness here that merits our grateful attention.
