Every Rock a Universe:The Yellow Mountains and Chinese Travel Writing

The Yellow Mountains(Huangshan)of China’s Anhui Province have been famous for centuries as a place of scenic beauty and inspiration for poets, painters, and travelers, and remain a hugely popular tourist destination today. A “golden age” of Yellow Mountains travel came about in the 17th century, especially after the traumatic Manchu invasion of China in 1644 led to the overthrow of the Ming dynasty. The mountains subsequently became an important symbol for loyalists protesting the new Qing dynasty and hoping for a reaffirmation of native governance and ideals. Among them was poet and artist Wang Hongdu(1646–1721/1722), who dedicated himself to traveling to each and every peak and recording his impressions. His resulting masterpiece of Chinese travel writing was printed posthumously in 1775, but has since remained obscure and available only in Chinese.

In this lecture, Professor Jonathan Chaves will present his new book, Every Rock a Universe:The Yellow Mountains and Chinese Travel Writing, which is the first complete translation of Wang’s work into a Western language with extensive annotations. Wang’s newly rediscovered poetry is also translated, showing him to be one of the most accomplished poets of his day. The book’s introductory essays explore the history of scholarly and religious pilgrimage to the area, and the role of the Yellow Mountains as the center of a yearned-for spiritual and cultural renaissance in the great Neo-Confucian, Buddhist, and Daoist revivals of the early Qing period.

Jonathan Chaves is professor of Chinese in the Department of East Asian Languages & Literatures at The George Washington University. A published original poet and distinguished translator of Chinese poetry, most recently Cloud Gate Song:The Verse of Tang Poet Zhang Ji, his work has been nominated for the National Book Award in the translation category.

Tuesday, December 17 ~ 6:30 – 8:00 PM
$10 member / $15 non–member

To register by phone, please call Eva Wen at 212-744-8181 ext. 121.

With its carefully curated group of paintings, calligraphy, sculptures, photographs, and mixed media installations that encompass a variety of themes and forms, this exhibition is a pioneering exploration of the historical, literary, artistic, and conceptual nature of the inspiration and influence exerted by Dunhuang's thousand-year-old tradition on contemporary artistic creation.

Tang Professor of Chinese Art History, the Chair of the Department of Art & Archaeology at Princeton University, and the Director of Princeton's Tang Center for East Asian Art. More...
