The deepest and most varied of the Tang Dynasty poets, Tu Fu (Du Fu) is, in the words of David Hinton, the “first complete poetic sensibility in Chinese literature.” Tu Fu merged the public and the private, often in the same poem, as his subjects ranged from the horrors of war to the delights of friendship, from closely observed landscapes to remembered dreams, from the evocation of historical moments to a wry lament over his own thinning hair.   Although Tu Fu has been translated often, and often brilliantly, David Hawkes’s classic study, first published in 1967, is the only book that demonstrates in depth how his poems were written. Hawkes presents thirty-five poems in the original Chinese, with a pinyin transliteration, a character-by-character translation, and a commentary on the subject, the form, the historical background, and the individual lines. There is no other book quite like it for any language: a nuts-and-bolts account of how Chinese poems in general, and specifically the poems of one of the world’s greatest poets, are constructed. It’s an irresistible challenge for readers to invent their own translations.

David Hawke's Ideology is a refreshingly clear, even-handed overview of the broad subject of ideology. Hawkes considers all the various meanings and definitions, and traces the history of the debates surrounding ideology from Martin Luther through to modern approaches such as feminism and psychoanalysis. In his conclusion he considers whether, in the face of age of post-war capitalism and postmodernism is the ideology debate obsolete? This comprehensive, lucid volume will be essential reading for students of literary theory.

This new revised edition includes an updated bibliography, a new glossary and index and fresh suggestions for further reading, as well as a discussion of ideology after September 11. Ideology: *traces the history of the term and the debates which surround it, from Machiavelli to the present day *asks why ideology matters *examines ideology within the critical frameworks of empiricism, idealism, Marxism, post-Marxism and postmodernism. With plenty of clear examples to illuminate the discussion, Ideology offers an accessible introduction to this controversial and widely debated critical concept.

Presents a psychotherapeutic model that relies primarily on structuring sessions around finding positive feedback or "what works." Rather than focus on problems and static unchangeable methods, argue the authors, the therapist should encourage the clients to focus how they would like to be and the ways that they already go about achieving those goals.

Ideology

Shakespeare and Economic Theory (Shakespeare and Theory)

Over the last 20 years, the concept of 'economic' activity has come to seem inseparable from psychological, semiotic and ideological experiences. In fact, the notion of the 'economy' as a discrete area of life seems increasingly implausible. This returns us to the situation of Shakespeare's England, where the financial had yet to be differentiated from other forms of representation. This book shows how concepts and concerns that were until recently considered purely economic affected the entire range of sixteenth and seventeenth century life. Using the work of such critics as Jean-Christophe Agnew, Douglas Bruster, Hugh Grady and many others, Shakespeare and Economic Theory traces economic literary criticism to its cultural and historical roots, and discusses its main practitioners. Providing new readings of Timon of Athens, King Lear, The Winter's Tale, The Merchant of Venice, Measure for Measure, Julius Caesar, Macbeth and The Tempest, David Hawkes shows how it can reveal previously unappreciated qualities of Shakespeare's work.
