Chuang Tzu: The Inner Chapters [Hinton, David] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Chuang Tzu: The Inner Chapters

Review: Excellent translation of one of the great poets, as in world poetry. - Being introduced to modern translations of the mountain and bamboo poets is instrumental in our understanding of the genius of Chinese poetry. I wish there were recordings of the original so that the sound and beat, the movement and internal rhymes of Tang and early Sung Dynasty poetry. In wonder I stood before the original Mountain and Bamboo poets paintings with the poem written next to the painting. The texture and appeal of the mountains, waterfalls, birds, sloping hills was accented by the calligraphy. I was standing close to the glass just basically digging on the works, the mystery to me. A guy standing next to me asked if I understood and I told him that it was only in translation. The translators throughout the 20th and into 21st century always state in the introductions about the quality of the sound and rhymes in this poetry, but I have no idea. He then recited them to me. Others who were obviously as into this poetic form joined in on different lyrical, narrative, pastoral and Chan-Tao poems. One of my best days in a museum. I love museums. The experience stands as a superb moment of social harmony.
Review: Handled With Care - The seller handled the book with loving care and that is greatly appreciated. David Hinton is, for me, beyond criticism, as he brings great joy with his scholarship in bringing these old masters, Chinese poet/philosophers, to life.

*by A***S on August 14, 2017*

I really enjoyed reading this book both because of its scholarly accuracy (it includes only those parts of the text that Chuang Tzu most likely wrote), and also for the attractive illustrations that accompany the text. I have always been a great fan of Chuang Tzu because of his lively and irreverent approach to life and David Hinton does a magnificent job of capturing his voice and making it accessible to the modern reader.
