Wang Wei. Li Po. Tu Fu. Li Ho. Young, David, translator
Wang Wei, Li Po, Tu Fu, Li Ho: Four T'ang Poets Translated and introduced by David Young
Publisher: Field Translation Series 4 [c1980].
154 p.; 20 cm. "This collection reflects a period of some fifteen years in which I have experimented with the intriguing problem of bringing Chinese poems over into English. My method has been to study the Chinese tradition as time and inclination have served; to translate when the impulse was strong and useful means and materials were available; and to check my results with friends and colleagues willing to bring their larger grasp of the subject and the language to bear on my efforts. My lines of approach have been as varied as I could make them..." ISBN 0932440061. Pictorial dj; translator's gift inscription on flyleaf dated November 1980; VG+. stock#46583.
