Ho Lai-Ming and contributors to Desde Hong Kong: Poets in conversation with
Octavio Paz
Octavio Paz, Mexican writer, poet, diplomat and
public intellectual, was awarded the 1981 Miguel de Cervantes Prize, the 1982
Neustadt International Prize for Literature and the 1990 Nobel Prize in
Literature. He built bridges among cultures, and especially among poets. His
connections with Asia were considerable. Moved by the wisdom and lyrical thrust
of Chinese poetry, he translated some 60 classical poems primarily from the
Tang and Song dynasties. These are still considered the best translations of
Chinese poems in Spanish. Paz also served as ambassador to India, and wrote
lucidly on South Asian and its culture.
Desde means "from" and this anthology of
original poetry from Hong Kong and beyond commemorates the centenary of the
poet's birth and illustrates the continuing ability of Paz's poetry to inspire
and stimulate across decades, cultures and oceans.
