Publisher's Synopsis

This book is the first in Western literature to focus on the poetry of Li Yu and Feng Yen-ssu. It contains nearly one hundred translations of Chinese poems written during the brief and turbulent Southern T'ang Dynasty (907- 960 A.D.). Bryant describes and evaluates the major contribution of Li Yu and Feng Yen-ssu to the evolution of the poetry form known as 'tz'u' -- a form which reflects the highly developed cultural milieu of the period.
