Text in English and Chinese, translated from the Chinese.
"The Hanshan ("Cold Mountain") poems are unquestionably the most enduring works to
come out of the poetically rich Tang dynasty (seventh to early tenth century) of China.
They entered modern Western consciousness though the influence of the Beat generation
writers for whom they were a major influence, and they're rightfully known as some
of the most accessible of classic Chinese poetry--the kind of poetry that speaks even
to those who don't usually relate to poetry. They have been much translated. This
new translation is unique both in its scope--it includes all the poems traditionally
associated with Hanshan, more than 300--and in its tone: it is a collaboration between
two renowned and very different poets and Zen students who honor the Buddhist elements
of the verse while perceiving in the Cold Mountain poems a kind of humor and tenderness
of heart that makes their renditions particularly delightful. The translation includes
the full Chinese text of the poems, and a wealth of fascinating ancillary materials.
This collection also stands out from the others in its organization: scholars often
identify two different authors of the Cold Mountain poems, whereas Tanahashi and Levitt
identify three poets from three different periods (Kaz explains why in a fascinating
appendix), and they have arranged the poems accordingly"
