Features: This book studies the Chinese vernacular poems created by authors in Malaysia (including Singapore and Borneo) from 1919 to 1942. These two decades were a crucial period for the birth and growth of Malaysian-Chinese vernacular poetry. The book separately examines the background and developmental process of pre-war Malaysian-Chinese vernacular poetry, as well as the authors' mindset and the evolution of poetic forms. This contributes to research on the relationship between New Malaysian-Chinese literature as regional literature and modern Chinese literature, thereby further broadening the research scope and perspectives in academia.
