Yu Xuanji (c. 843-868) is one of the most interesting poets in premodern Chinese literature, and her approximately fifty extant poems include some of the most arresting writing from the Tang dynasty--a period known as the golden age of Chinese poetry. Preceded by a critical introduction explaining the possibility of a tradition of women's poetry in medieval China, as well as Yu's relationship with the dominant tradition of male poets, this collection of innovative translations combines scholarly accuracy with a poet's demand for creative solutions in handling the crossover between languages and literary styles.Hinweis: Dieser Artikel kann nur an eine deutsche Lieferadresse ausgeliefert werden.
Yu Xuanji (c. 843-868) was a concubine, a Daoist priestess, and a poet who was executed at the age of twenty-six on dubious accusations of murder. Though only approximately fifty of her poems have survived, she is now the most famous woman poet of the Tang dynasty. Lucas Klein is Associate Professor of Chinese at Arizona State University and Associate Editor of the Hsu-Tang Library of Classical Chinese Literature. His publications include The Organization of Distance and, as coeditor, Chinese Poetry and Translation and The Bloomsbury Handbook of Modern Chinese Literature in Translation. He is also the translator of poetry by Mang Ke, Li Shangyin, Duo Duo, and Xi Chuan.
