Songs of Chu - An Anthology of Ancient Chinese Poetry By Qu Yuan and Others

Zusammenfassung Qu Yuan was as important to the development of Chinese literature as Homer was to the development of Western literature. This translation attempts to replicate what the work might have meant to those for whom it was originally intended. It accounts for the new view of the state of Chu that recent discoveries have inspired.
