The Book of Songs

Joseph R. Allen`s new edition of The Book of Songs restores Arthur Waley`s definitive English translations to the original order and structure of the 2000-year-old Chinese text. One of the five Confucian classics, The Book of Songs is the oldest collection of poetry in the world literature, and the finest treasure of traditional songs that antiquity has left us.
