- Synopsis
- The poets of ancient China were singing their songs to the 20th century, indeed for all time, and Dr. Wu, with the soul of a poet himself, interprets them with deep understanding. He knows the singers as they worked in the fields of millet, repaired the river dikes, or gathered marshmallows at the time of the Ch'ing Ming Festival, and faithfully records their emotions.Dr. Wu feels that the T'ang poetry, like the soul of universal man, falls naturally into four seasons. Because of his broad humanity and meticulous craftsmanship, many Chinese consider him their greatest poet.
