Shao, Yanxiang. [The evergreen Leaves of grass]. [ID D29885].
Shao wrote after reading the first complete translation of Leaves of grass by Walt Whitman, that, as a 'cosmic poet', Whitman appeals for the 'acceptance, integration and renovation' of the alien culture and proposes to 'shape it with our own character', a message that is close to us Chinese who are opening extensively to the outside world today.
