READING POEMS, EVEN QHILE YOU ARE TRAVELING IN CHINA

CHINESE POEMS OF THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY – Many people loves to read. Our proposal call any web-traveler to sit into Meeting Benches info@meetingbenches.com to share written emotions, observing new creative horizons. In his book (How to Read and Why), Harold Bloom says that we should read slowly, with love and with our inner ear cocked. By reading a written description, your mind is responsible for creating that image in your head, and the worlds described in books will help you expand your understanding, also reading poem, even while you travel in China. http://meetingbenches.com/2016/10/chinese-poems-twenty-first-century/

CLASSIC CHINESE POEMS / Li Shangyin – Chinese critics prefer to interpret Li Shangyin’s love poetry as allegory. Li Shangyin, is the love poet par excellence in the Chinese tradition. His poems set a trend for later Chinese love poetry. He was born into the lower aristocracy but lost his father, a low-ranking official, when he was 10 years old. Much of his love poetry has a melancholic flavour, expressing disappointment and frustration rather than joy and fulfilment. http://meetingbenches.com/2016/07/classic-chinese-poems-li-shangyin/

CHINESE POEMS / Warm spring expands, while raising clouds – In the deep night vigil, the moonlight cuts through men and houses, the Great Bear cross the skies in the north, Sagittarius declines in the south. http://meetingbenches.com/2015/11/chinese-poems-warm-spring-expands-while-raising-clouds/
