The wisdom and poetic traditions of the Celestial Empire, with the depth of feelings, richness, and sophistication of the Russian language. Chinese poetry captivated our readers at the height of the 'Golden Age' of Russian literature: the first translation of a Chinese poem into Russian was done by Afanasy Fet (his 'Shadow' was published in 1856).
Collected under one cover are 200 poems by 75 Chinese poets from the 6th to the 13th centuries in brilliant translations by Vladimir Markov, Konstantin Balmont, Venedikt Mart, Nikolay Novich, Yulian Shchutsky, Vasily Alexeev, and others. These will not only provide an opportunity to touch upon Chinese poetic classics once again but will also become the best way to unite two great cultures.
