From the publisher
From the rear cover
Taiwan has evolved dramatically from a little-known island to an internationally acclaimed economic miracle and thriving democracy. The history of modern Taiwanese poetry both parallels and articulates this transformation from peripheral colony to economic and cultural center. Comprehensive in both depth and scope, Frontier Taiwan beautifully captures individual poets' achievements in the nation's modern poetic traditions. Containing translations of 400 poems from 50 poets spanning the entire twentieth century, this anthology reveals Taiwan in a broad spectrum of themes, forms, and styles: from lyrical meditation to political satire, haiku to concrete poetry, surrealism to postmodernism. The in-depth introduction outlines the development of modern poetry within Taiwan's unique historical and cultural context.
