from Epitome · host Bob Gonzalez

One of the Just-So Stories Rudyard Kipling actually told his daughter at bedtime. It was later included with a number of others in the book of that title.

Poetry was the epitome of the arts: a scholastic requirement, a route to fame, a moulder of character. Nearly 50,000 poems of the Tang have survived. The collection 'Three Hundred Tang Poems' was compiled around 1763. It comprises six volumes, with poems grouped by verse form. Volume 1 covers the 'ancient verse' style in five-character lines (poems 1 to 35), and 'folk song style verse' (36 to 45). The masters Li Bai, Du Fu and Wang Wei are well represented here. Recordings in this volume are in Cantonese, Hokkien, Mandarin and Taiwanese, as indicated in the titles; some are spoken, others are sung. (Summary by David Barnes)Files containing the text in both Chinese and English for the individual poems in this collection can be downloaded by poem number in pdf format from <a href="htt Manly Catholic: Igniting Men to Light the World on Fire James Caldwell Voted #1 Catholic Podcast for Men!Jesus Christ is the epitome of what it means to be a man.
