Has anyone found the exact volumes of Chinese poetry JDS read?
I know he praises Witter Bynner and Lionel Giles in that footnote in SAI.
But has someone secured volumes by such and found the specific poems by Lao
Ti-kao, Tang-li and Ko-huang recounted in SAI? Does that wonder of the
eleventh century, P'ang, make an auspicious appearance? (I can't even find
a P'ang in my two-volume anthology published by Columbia U.) (I do have the
four-volume set of haiku translated by that "highhanded old poem himself,"
R.H. Blyth. I recommend it.)
