Liu Lei: This is my all-time favourite. William: I’ve got a question for you, Liulei. Is there anything you can say in general, when you’re talking about comparing English poems, like this sonnet 2, and Chinese poems from that same era 1, that same time, 16-17th century? Broadly, what are the differences? Liulei: Differences. In Chinese poems are mostly images in the poems, trees, flowers, birds and snow and everything. All these things, when they are combined together, they can create an environment. This will reflect the mind-set of the poet and by reading it I believe the readers will feel it. The English poems, English poems in most cases, they are very completed sentences - shall I compare thee to a summer’s day - this is English poems. OK, so the subject and the verbs and everything, is a sentence.

William: I thought it was quite interesting what you were saying about Chinese poetry being about images, because this sonnet is very much an idea isn’t it. It’s quite, what we would say, cerebral 3. So it’s quite, there’s a lot of ideas and a lot of thoughts, it’s quite intellectualised. It seems to me sometimes that Shakespeare really tries to get across a complex, almost a philosophical 4 idea, rather than painting a picture. This sonnet is very much an idea isn’t it.

So one reason William Shakespeare can transcend 5 all times and countries, is that his themes are very universal. There’s love, hate, everything, so, emotions. So, yes, Chinese poems will not do that directly. Liulei: One reason William Shakespeare can transcend all times and countries, is that his themes are very universal.
