BIBLIOGRAPHY OF MODERN CHINESE
LITERATURE, FILM AND CULTURE
http://deall.ohio-state.edu/denton.2/biblio.htm
Extensive bibliographies of Chinese literature in translation, of reference
materials including dictionaries and literary compendiums, of studies of Chinese authors
arranged alphabetically, and of journals that deal with Chinese literature and culture.
Published in conjunction with the journal, Modern Chinese Literature and Culture.
CHINESE CLASSICAL POETRY
http://www.chinapage.com/poetry9.html
Text and audio files of Chinese poetry, some of which are translated into English.
Collections of the complete works of Li Bai, Li Qingzhao, and Jiang Ye are presented in
Chinese. There are also a few translations of Longfellow and Shelley to Chinese.
JAPANESE TEXT INITIATIVE
http://etext.lib.virginia.edu/japanese/index.html
A rich, excellent site that includes the text of "Midaregami" and
"Ise Mongatari" as well as a collection of Noh plays and "Ogura Hyakunin
Isshu" (One Hundred Poems by One Hundred Poets). The section on Noh plays provides an
introduction by Rimer and two glossaries of Noh terms by Tyler and by Brazell.
Additionally, one can look at the Noh translations and the originals in parallel frames.
The section on "Ogura Hyakunin Isshu" has the original, the romanized version
and an English translation, and a click on the poem will show a woodblock print from a
Meiji-era edition of the poems. A fabulous resource.
