Contemporary Chinese Poetry — CHI4220.01

Instructor: Ginger Lin
Days & Time: Tu/F 7:00PM-8:20PM
Credits: 4

While the language of classical Chinese poetry is practically inaccessible to even today’s native speakers of Chinese, the poetry of the five contemporary poets studied in this course is written in the vernacular and serves as a rich source of authentic texts for this course, which integrates language learning with poetry study. The five poets, all born after 1980, each offer a unique perspective into the changing society and culture of modern China.
