| Summary: | Shang Qin (1930-2010) is widely considered one of the most influential and original modern Chinese poets. His critical acclaim was earned not only as a modern master of the prose poem but also as one of Taiwan's leading surrealist poets. Shang Qin published five collections of poetry: Dream or Dawn (1969), Dream or Dawn and Others (1988), Thinking with My Feet (1988), The Millennium Collection (2000) and Complete Poems (2009). The present volume, The All-Seeing Eye, is a complete translation of his 2000 volume, which includes poems from his first three collections as well a substantial selection of previously unpublished verse. This book is the largest selection of his poetry available in English. The collection is a valuable resource for scholars, students, and general readers interested in Taiwan literature, modern Chinese literature, modernism, surrealism, comparative literature and world literature. |
