Features: Among the spiritual creations of humanity, much is ephemeral. Amidst the clamor of the times, those that are brilliant and loud are often far from "immortal." Poets and their works may be lonely and overlooked in their own era, but their perfect pursuit of life's existence, their endless exploration of artistic forms, and their orientation toward the value of truth and civilization have reached an extreme and selfless height among writers throughout history. Human civilization has now entered the 21st century. Facing an increasingly materialistic society, we might cool our minds and see what these poets once said or did—perhaps it will be instructive. This book collects letters and diaries from 30 world-famous poets of the 20th century, expressing their perfect pursuit of life's existence, their endless exploration of artistic forms, and their orientation toward the value of truth and human civilization.
