The Jade Mountain: A Chinese Anthology (Being 300 Poems of the T'ang Dynasty, 618-906) by Kiang Kang-Hu
A collection of approximately three hundred poems from the T'ang Dynasty. Some very beautiful poetry, with themes including the beauty of nature, the joy of friendship, the sorrow of being separated from one's loved ones, romantic love, and growing old. My only lament is that since I don't read Chinese, I'm unable to really experience the way the poems were originally meant to sound.
The Jade Mountain: A Chinese Anthology (Being 300 Poems of the T'ang Dynasty, 618-906) by Kiang Kang-Hu
A classic anthology of Tang verse, influential in Japan as well as China. However, it does not include some of my favorite Tang poets.
