OverviewPlease visit http: //modernchinesepoetry.com/ for sample poems. The quarterly journal of 21st Century Chinese Poetry was founded with the intention of introducing modern Chinese poetry to readers worldwide. Please enjoy with us the evolution and revolution of the making of modern Chinese poetry. Modern Chinese poetry was born from the broader intellectual movement that took place in China in the early part of the 20th century, known as the May-Fourth Movement (1917-1921); for the first time in history, vernacular Chinese was accepted as a legitimate poetic voice. Since then, nearly a century has passed by and this poetic experiment hasn't stopped evolving but only accelerated recently because of the easy exchange of styles and ideas over cyberspace. This is an eye-opening, exciting and even confounding experience for both the poets and the readers. The editor-and-translator team of 21st Century Chinese Poetry selects some of the best poems written in Chinese by today's poets from all geographical areas. This book combines Nos. 1 - 5 of 21st Century Chinese Poetry and includes 129 poems by 40 poets. (The combined No. of the journal will be issued annually at year-end.)
