About the author
Zhu Xiang (1904–1933), courtesy name Ziyuan, was a native of Taihu, Anhui, born in Yuanling, Hunan. He was a modern Chinese poet, essayist and translator, one of the "Four Talents of Tsinghua," and was called "China's Keats" by Lu Xun. His writing centers on modern poetry and also includes prose and essays. His works include the poetry collections Summer, Grass and Brambles, Shimen Collection and Yongyan Collection, as well as the prose and criticism collection Zhongshu Collection, and he devoted himself to translating foreign poetry. His verse attends closely to meter and rhyme, with delicate and slightly melancholy feeling, and has a distinct place in the history of modern Chinese new poetry. Eighteen of his works are held in the collection, including a complete poetry edition, letter collections and selected writings, showing the general range of his poetry, correspondence and prose. On December 5, 1933, he jumped into the river from a passenger ship traveling from Shanghai to Nanjing and died at the age of twenty-nine.
