Book Description
This anthology is comprised of three hundred Chinese cut verses, each followed by an English translation. The anthology consists of six parts: poems about photographs; poems about paintings; initiation and response; chanting; poems about exchanges with friends; and poems in memory of late parents, scholars and sages. All the poems revolve around the poet’s life at Beijing Geely University and his vacations in Huainan, including poems depicting the fight against the coronavirus. The poet is aware that translating a Chinese cut verse into an English verse is, in fact, writing what is said in Chinese in accordance with the English versification, and all the translations are completed accordingly.

Book Description
This book considers urban development in China, highlighting links between China’s history and civilization and the rapid evolution of its urban forms. It explores the early days of urban dwelling in China, progressing to an analysis of residential environments in the industrial age. It also examines China’s modern and postmodern architecture, considered as derivative or lacking spiritual meaning or personality, and showcases how China's traditional culture underpins the emergence of China’s modern cities. Focusing on the notion of “courtyard spirit” in China, it offers a study of the urban public squares central to Chinese society, and examines the disruption of the traditional Square model and the rise and growth of new architectural models.

Book Description
Beginning with an essay on the history and theory of poetic argument, he traces its patterns through Romantic and Modernist literature. He divides his subject into three areas: the paradoxes of reason, language, and argument. Poetic Argument surveys the writings of the five poets in light of what has to be "proved" and identifies the characteristic styles of proof for each. For example, in the chapter on Marianne Moore, Kertzer studies two expressions of poetic argument. The first regards poetry as a waking dream, combining the powers of sleep and calculation. The second, derived from Imagism, treats poetry as a special way of seeing. Kertzer suggests that the combination of these two elements produces Moore's characteristically intricate, but inconclusive, forms of argument.
