A Lute of Jade: Being Selections from the Classical Poets of China is a book published in 1909 by Launcelot Cranmer-Byng. The book is a collection of poems from classical Chinese poets such as Li Bai, Du Fu, and Wang Wei. The poems are translated into English and provide a glimpse into the rich literary tradition of China. The book is divided into sections based on themes such as nature, love, and philosophy. The translator's introduction provides context for the poems and explains the cultural significance of poetry in China. The title of the book comes from a line in a poem by Bai Juyi, which describes the beauty and delicacy of a lute made of jade. A Lute of Jade is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Chinese literature and poetry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
