Description

This is a study of one of the major literary figures of the period of Mongol rule in China, the Yuan dynasty (1260-1368). From the Studio of Sour Mood: Poetry and Prose of Guan Yunshi 貫雲石 (1286-1324) is a radically rewritten and expanded version of Richard John Lynn's Kuan Yün-Shih (Twayne's World Authors Series, Boston, 1980). This QPUE edition offers the following features: • Older Wade-Giles transliteration fully updated and revised to Pinyin. • Fully re-typeset and proofed for typographical errors and inconsistencies. • Expanded index. • Fully revised and expanded by the author. Keywords: Guan Yunshi 貫雲石 / Sävinč Qaya 1286-1324 | Poets, Chinese - Biography | Criticism and interpretation | Translation and commentary Guan Yunshi 貫雲石 (1286-1324), the Sinicized Uighur Sävinč Qaya, was a major literary figure of the Mongol-Yuan dynasty. During his own day, he enjoyed the highest of reputations as a writer of both classical verse and prose and the new popular form of lyric poetry, the free lyric (sanqu 散曲), which bridged "popular" and "elite" culture and literature. Guan is an interesting and unusual figure. Although not of major political or intellectual consequence, he was still close enough to the centre of trends and events to represent, in several important ways, the values and sensibilities of his age. Guan was also a major calligrapher, whose works were highly prized-some of which still survive. The transformation of this young Uighur military figure into, first, a Neo-Confucian Imperial academician in Dadu, the Yuan capital, and then, following disillusionment, a bon vivant and highly cultured semi-recluse in Qiantang (Hangzhou) makes a remarkable story, here amply illustrated with translations of all his surviving poetry and prose excerpts keyed to significant stages of his life.
