Description:
Berkeley: California U. Press, 1985. Explores the rich literary heritage of religious Taoism as it existed in 9th century China, a tradition which was subsequently almost lost during the three centuries of Manchu suppression of the Qing Dynasty. Through elegant translations of medieval poetry, Schafer reveals mystical descriptions of a Taoist heavenly paradise and visions of its denizens, in the manner in which only this brilliant Sinologist could. Schafer's introductory essay describes the sources of the poets' imagery and their treatment of the various players in the Taoist pantheon, but the beauty of the poetry speaks for itself. Schafer at his best. Now scarce. 153 pp., Chinese and Western language bibliographies, index. First Edition. Hard Cover. Fine/Very Good. 21.5 x 14.5 cm..
