Madman of Ch’u: The Chinese Myth of Loyalty and Dissent
Laurence A. Schneider
Laurence Schneider's wide-ranging study traces the evolution of one of China's most enduring and controversial madmen, the legendary southern poet Ch'u Yuan. For two thousand years a unique tradition of art, folklore, and political debate has surrounded this romantic figure, whose suicide by drowning is commemorated annually in the colorful Dragon Boat festivals of southern China.
