Fall Special Course
A Rare Gem of Language Course:The Classical Chinese
Tuesdays, Sep 27-Dec 6
6:30PM-8:30PM
Taught by Ben Wang, Senior Lecturer at China Institute.
Marked by its succinctness and expressiveness, classical Chinese manifests fully the unique characteristic of the visceral language, which is an uncanny blending of music and painting, in that spoken Chinese is music and written Chinese, painting. It is only in classical Chinese that the visceral comes to meet with the cerebral, leading to an enchanted garden of poetry and other fine cultural genres.
