After four local scholars read one poem each by Bei Dau in English, the author reads his work in the original Chinese. Huang discusses the acceptance and interpretation of this and other Chinese poetry in the United States. Gunther comments on the body as a metaphor both within and without poetry. Zheng speaks on the course of general trends in contemporary Chinese poetry. Lazer elaborates on the visual structure of Chinese poetry in its original characters versus English translations (see handouts).
