Title
A Wild Deer amid Soaring Phoenixes: The Opposition Poetics of Wang Ji,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Credited in China as a 'transitional' figure, Wang Ji (590644) is known for his revival of eremitic themes from the earlier WeiJin period and for anticipating the rise of regulated verse forms in the 'golden era' of Tang poetry. Yet throughout the centuries Wang Ji has puzzled readers and sometimes offended their moral sensibilities by his unapologetic celebrations of his life as a roundtheclock drinker. Until now scholars have treated him primarily as a problem of biography and have struggled to find 'evidence' in his work for his reclusive and unwieldy character and, once and for all, to tell the story of his life and thought. This indepth study of the early Tangdynasty poet, the first to be published in a Western language, surveys the complete range of Wang Ji's enigmatic literary selfrepresentation and proposes new ways of understanding the poetics behind his practice.
