In the Footsteps of Du Fu

內容簡介

內容簡介 A beautifully illustrated travelogue, chronicling the life and work of one of the world greatest poets.杜甫，唐代詩人，同時也被認為是世界上最偉大的詩人之一，他出生的時代已來到盛唐晚期，戰火、饑荒與動亂頻傳，他不崇尚風花雪月的描寫，而是以詩人的眼光，對當時在戰爭中受到磨難的人民，與殘破不堪的家國投以憤慨和悲憫的目光，如同莎士比亞和但丁，杜甫的作品至今也影響著新世代。英國歷史學家、曼徹斯特大學歷史學教授麥可‧伍德前往中國，踏上一段追尋杜甫足跡的旅程，從他的童年、家鄉到長安城與創作歷程，在他的創作裡，我們看見他對家族、朋友的關愛，和對國家的擔憂，針貶社會不公與貧富階級差別，這些作品即便來自於1300年前，如今讀來卻仍擲地有聲。Du Fu (712-70) is one of China’s greatest poets. His career coincided with periods of famine, war and huge upheaval, yet his secular philosophical vision, combined with his empathy for the common folk of his nation, ensured that he soon became revered. Like Shakespeare or Dante, his poetry resonates in a timeless manner that ensures it is always relevant and offers something new to the modern generation.Now, in this beautifully illustrated book, broadcaster and historian Michael Wood follows in his footsteps to try to understand the places that inspired Du Fu to write some of the most famous and best-loved poetry the world has known. The themes he wrote about – friendship, family, human suffering – are universal and in our troubled times are just as relevant as they were almost 1,300 years ago.
