Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lyrical world of Chinese poetry in faithful translations by Kenneth Rexroth. The lyric poetry of Tu Fu ranks with the greatest in all world literature. Across the centuries—Tu Fu lived in the T'ang Dynasty (731-770)—his poems come through to us with an immediacy that is breathtaking in Kenneth Rexroth's English versions. They are as simple as they are profound, as delicate as they are beautiful. Thirty-five poems by Tu Fu make up the first part of this volume. The translator then moves on to the Sung Dynasty (10th-12th centuries) to give us a number of poets of that period, much of whose work was not previously available in English. Mei Yao Ch'en, Su Tung P'o, Lu Yu, Chu Hsi, Hsu Chao, and the poetesses Li Ch'iang Chao and Chu Shu Chen. There is a general introduction, biographical and explanatory notes on the poets and poems, and a bibliography of other translations of Chinese poetry.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Selected poems, songs, and letters by famous Scottish poet Robert Burns translated into modern English. Scottish poet and lyricist Robert Burns wrote most of his songs and poems in his original Scottish dialect, which some modern American readers might find to be a barrier to enjoying his work. This collection of translated poems, put together with love by Doris Minasian Phillips, aims to bring the genius of Robert Burns to the modern English reader. Coupled with quotations from his letters, this collection makes for an immersive reading experience. The poetry and songs of Robert Burns touch on themes of people and relationships, politics, wealth, and power. This collection includes pieces that emphasize Robert Burns' deep empathy with the natural world and all its creatures. His insights and observations are still relevant after 200 years. Robert Burns is the original lyricist behind the song "Auld Lang Syne" (For Old Time's Sake) which is still sung around the world, and the author of the poem "To A Mouse" which includes the famous quote, "The best laid schemes of mice and men..." This collection of poetry will appeal to American fans of Robert Burns looking for a fresh take on their beloved poet. Readers who enjoy classic poetry and translated works will find the collection an ideal addition to their library.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: China has arguably the largest community of Australian studies in the world. However, not much is known about this phenomenon, including its emergence, rationale, interests, influences, and the implications for strategic Australia-China engagement in a region of increasing challenge and uncertainty. This volume unpacks how Australia is taught, learnt, researched, communicated, and promoted in the Asian giant as well as its largest trade partner. In doing so, it penetrates the representation and essence of this phenomenon to seek both the ‘Australianness’ and the ‘Chineseness’ in it. This volume collects contributions from a group of leading and emerging Chinese and Australian scholars—who are members and insiders of this community—to jointly debate on this intellectual entity and its significant influences and implications. Produced at a critical moment of commemorating half a century of China-Australia diplomatic relations and four decades of formalised Australian studies in China, this volume provides an up-to-date, comprehensive, and insightful examination of this Australia-China engagement. It will be of interest to scholars, students, policymakers, and general readers in areas of Australian studies, Chinese studies, Asia-Pacific studies, China-Australia relations, and international relations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new, bilingual collection of poetry by a pioneering, multi-talented Chinese writer and photographer in a landmark English translation. “My poems are flecks of salt clinging ambivalently to a horse’s back,” Wang Yin writes. This is the first comprehensive collection of this important Chinese poet’s work to appear in English, translated by Andrea Lingenfelter. Readers can follow the full arc of his career, from the early, surrealist, and Deep Image–influenced work of the 1980s, when he made his debut as a post-Misty poet, through the turn toward the rawer, more immediate poetry of the nineties, and on to the existential and ineffable weavings of his more recent work. Wang’s sensibility is both cosmopolitan and lyrical, and his poetry has a subtlety and beauty that contrasts with the often physically painful imagery with which he depicts psychological reality, a reality expressed as various states of mind struggling against the suppression of memory. Shanghai winters, a winter in Katowice, a summer day with ghosts, blue shadows, petals in the darkness, an “empty lane lit up by moonlight”—the poems of this extraordinary volume illuminate the inner life as a singular encounter between physical and spiritual realms.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here, brought together in one volume for the first time, are the best poems of Christopher Morley. Best known to the public as a novelist, Morley considered himself first and last a poet, and it is as a poet that he wished to be remembered. From the span of Morley's work, John Bracker has drawn 132 poems that may be said to represent the high points of the poet's art. In addition, the editor has included a number of the "translations from the Chinese," so much admired by Pearl Buck and Leonard Bacon.
