詩從雪域來

本書是一本評述當代西藏流亡詩歌的專著。在某種意義上，自從1959年達賴喇嘛和大批藏人被迫流亡以來，真正的西藏詩人無不經受著身體的或精神的流亡。他們在放逐或自我放逐中以藏語、中文和英語寫作。本書涉及的許多優秀詩作，系第一次譯為中文，展現了西藏詩人真實的民族情感、獨特的藝術風格和攜帶的藏傳佛教的神秘色彩，並第一次得到系統的多角度透視。在當代漢藏文化衝突和交融，西藏詩歌與世界文學合流的廣闊背景上，全書生動地描述和剖析了西藏詩人流亡的艱難和流亡的自在，他們沉重的鄉愁和非暴力抗爭的悲劇精神。他們的故事和詩情，是說不盡的民族寓言。

This book under the title The Odyssey of the Tibetan Poets, written by Fu Zhengming and prefaced by the Dalai Lama, is an introduction to and review of Tibetan poets in exile and their poems or songs.
In a sense, nearly all of true Tibetan poets have suffered the fate of being exiled or self-exiled either in body or in soul since 1959, the year His Holiness the Dalai Lama was forced to leave the Snowland and seek refuge in India. The author brings together the Tibetan poets, both outside and inside Tibet, who write in Tibetan, Chinese or English. Many poems quoted in this book are translated from Tibetan or English into Chinese for the first time. In their works, these Tibetan poets emphasize their individuality, specific situations, and true feelings in unique artistic style and mystic colors of the Tibetan Buddhism, which are woven into a comprehensive picture for the first time. On the background of Sino-Tibet conflict, the mixing of the two cultures and the meeting of Tibetan poetry and world literature, this book depicts the Tibetan poets’ hardship and freedom in exile, as well as their nostalgia and tragic spirit in their peaceful struggle against China’s autocratic rule. A mixture of their lives with lyrical emotions is a long story as national allegory.
