Studies on Li Bai’s Poetry

Li Bai (also known as Li Po, 701-762) was the greatest romantic poet in ancient China. In this book, we studied the history and characteristics in translating Li Bai’s poems into America and major European countries and evaluated typical English versions from the perspective of the “Harmony-Guided Three-Level Poetry Translation Criteria”, cognitive linguistics, and corpus linguistics. Li Bai’s female theme poems and patriotic poems were also studied.
