    Thank you for the reference to Tao Yuanming
    I had forgotten his influence on Chinese poetry.
    So I ordered both versions.
    Red Pine's translation because it is the complete works
    and i is bilingual and I studied Chinese a LONG time ago.
    David Hinton has translated Du Fu's poetry - a later Tang poet
    and the successor school to Tao Qian, the Shanshui movement
    His anthology is called "Mountain Home" and might be worth checking out
    even though the subtitle calls them "The Wilderness Poetry of Ancient China"
    when this style is from the Tang and Song dynasties
    which are early medieval in our chronology.

      @@johncrwarner Thanks for the comment - you might be interested in my video on traditional chinese literature where I mention a bunch of the authors I've been learning about lately. The video is a bit dated because I've spent most of the last 9 months obsessed with chinese civilization so an update video is due soon.

    An ecological civilization is an oxymoron

      @@ramon2008 How can you be so confident? In the scope of humanity civilization is very young and there is no good reason why it cannot be locally sustainable.

      I think @ramon2008 thinks there is a contradiction between civilisation and nature.
      There is a writer Timothy Morton
      who has written several books on this issue
      "Being Ecological" which suggests this is a major problem
      and we might need to do as the title of another book of his
      "Ecology without Nature".
      I was thinking about these texts when I was watching your video.

      @@johncrwarner I've read some of Timothy Morton and didn't find his work valuable personally. I hear this idea that civilization is contrary to nature but I've never heard a good argument for it.
