Críticas:

In addition to its intrinsic value for the study and appreciation of Chinese thought and literature, Owen's book, which is sure to have a significant impact on a wide audience outside Sinological circles, should do much to raise awareness of creative and critical works of Chinese literature among general students of literature and nonspecialists in Chinese studies. -- Richard John Lynn "China Review International" much to raise awareness of creative and critical works of Chinese literature among general students of literature and nonspecialists in Chinese studies.

Reseña del editor:

In this compilation of seven major works and dozens of shorter pieces, Stephen Owen provides original texts, translations, and detailed commentary for fundamental works in Chinese literary thought from the Confucian period through the Ch'ing dynasty. Included are the systematic sixth-century "Wen-hsin tiao-lung" of Liu Hsieh, the mysterious ninth-century "Twenty-Four Categories of Remarks on Poetry" of Ssu-K'ung T'u, and the influential "shih-hua" collection "Ts'ang-lang's Remarks on Poetry" by Yen Yu. Owen draws on classical Chinese texts and scholarship to trace more than 2000 years of Chinese literary thought. He also explains how Western and Chinese literary theory diverge. This volume, with adjacent Chinese and English, should be indispensable to students of Chinese literature, while the translations and commentaries should give Western literary theorists access to Chinese thought.
