Produktinformationen zu „The Life of Tu Fu (ePub)“
A book-length poem by our best living literary essayist (Forrest Gander).
For over fifty years Eliot Weinberger has been celebrated for his innovative literary and political essaystranslated into over thirty languagesas well as his trailblazing translations from the Spanish. In his exquisite new book The Life of Tu Fu, Weinberger has composed a montage of fifty-eight poems that capture the life and times of the great Tang Dynasty poet Tu Fu (712770 AD). As he writes in a note to the edition, This is not a translation of individual poems, but a fictional autobiography of Tu Fu derived and adapted from the thoughts, images, and allusions in the poetry. Through lines as penetrating as a classical tanka and as fluid as a mountain stream, themes of endless war and ongoing pandemic surround the wandering life of the ancient Chinese master.
