World Chinese Poets: Selected Works of Serial Poetry (2021-2025)

Book Description

World Chinese Poets: Selected Works of Serial Poetry (2021-2025) is a landmark anthology showcasing outstanding serial poems by Chinese-language poets from around the globe. Spanning five years of creative exploration, this volume highlights the rich narrative structure and emotional depth made possible through the poetic sequence form.

Initiated by The Hall of Poets, the bilingual quarterly journal of the Society of Chinese Poetics (华诗会), and published by the Chicago Academic Press, the collection brings together diverse voices across cultures and continents. Each serial poem presents a unified yet expansive vision-mapping landscapes, reimagining history, exploring identity, and confronting universal themes such as nature, memory, and human fate.

With aesthetic innovation and thematic resonance, these works reflect the dynamic evolution of Chinese-language poetry. From immersive imagery to fragmented structures, multivocal narratives to lyrical meditations, the poets demonstrate how form and feeling intertwine to convey complex experience and deep emotion.

This volume is part of the World Chinese Poets 2021-2025 four-volume series, which also includes:

The Overseas Poets Volume (cross-cultural expression)

The China Poets Volume (mainland literary voices)

The Archive Volume (historical and classic selections)

Together, they present a panoramic view of contemporary Chinese poetry in its global context. A tribute to poetic craftsmanship and structural innovation, this book invites readers to journey into the evolving landscapes of Chinese-language verse.
