Love poems don't expire. So, why not read some marvelous love poems that have passed the test of time through millennia? This is a collection of 50 love poems selected from the oldest anthology of Chinese poetry, The Book of Songs (詩經), along with elegant English translations that keep the rhyme schemes of the originals. The 50 poems are placed in the same sequence in this book as they are in the anthology compiled by the ancient sage Confucius (551-479 BC). While the anthology comprises 305 poems in total, all dating back to an ancient period from the 11th to the 6th century BC, this book has collected only 50 of them, because it is not meant for academic purposes. Illustrated with captivating color pictures, this book targets the general public. It is supposed to be a leisure read or a gift for a loved one. It is really meant for everyone in love or in search of love.
