Book Synopsis
A reconstruction of three modernist poets' dialogue with the Chinese masters, this sequel to ""Orientalism and Modernism"", investigates the ways in which three modernist poets received Chinese artistic notions and assimilated them into their literary masterpieces.

Trade Review
The Modernist Response to Chinese Art is a work of both erudition and sympathy that reveals the root of modernist poets' otherwise baffling interest in and use of Chinese art. Most impressive, perhaps, is the depth of their embrace of it, as Qian has so convincingly documented. - Patricia C. Willis, Yale University, author of Marianne Moore; ""Qian provides a scrupulously scholarly and valuable study - a goldmine of important and useful facts and insights."" - Marjorie Perloff, Stanford University, author of Twenty-first-Century Modernism: The ""New"" Poetics; ""Enormously impressive, The Modernist Response to Chinese Art will be highly useful to all levels of readers in Pound, Moore, and Stevens, and absolutely indispensable to scholars sorting out the development of the three poets' work."" - Ronald Bush, St. John's College, Oxford, author of The Genesis of Ezra Pound's Cantos
