This new book is an outcome of a research project (sponsored by the Faculty of Arts) that aims to demonstrate the beauty of classical Chinese poetry from the perspective of cultural management. The anthology combines academic essays, poems and calligraphy works by 120 prominent contributors across the three fields in Hong Kong, Taiwan and some cities of Mainland China. The book launch party aims to introduce the book to the public and share the fruits of the project. It will disseminate the books, invite 12 prominent contributors to talk about their creation process and participatory experience and demonstrate calligraphy for celebration. Finally, a video about the poem recitation party on May 17 will be showed.
