(Cinet)- A workshop entitled “Vietnamese poetry retains the Vietnamese spirit” took place in Hanoi on March 03. The workshop was organised on the sidelines of the third international conference on promoting Vietnamese literature in Hanoi with the participation of many local and international poets.
The majority of authors during this period were Buddhist priests, leading the poetry to reflect Buddhism’s succinct style and popular thoughts.
Poetry reached its peak under King Le Thanh Tong with an imperial palace poetry club, which made great contributions to the development of Vietnamese poetry. Skilled poets emerged during Europe’s bourgeois revolution, including Nguyen Du, a master of human psychology and life.
Veteran poet Vu Quan Phuong said that the origin of Vietnamese poetry could be traced back to the 10th century with written documents found in the pre-Le dynasty (980-1009), which then flourished in the Ly and Tran dynasties (1009-1225) – (1225-1400).
According to poet Vu Duy Thong, a highlight of Vietnamese poetry is poems on wars, which carry popular humanitarian values, peaceful aspirations, and wishes for humankind to live in love and happiness.
The conference also drew international writers, poets and translators, who are interested in Vietnamese literature. It provided a chance for foreign and domestic authors to exchange and learn from each other.
150 representatives from 43 countries and territories attending the conferenceto offered a panoramic view of Vietnamese literature for international friends, promote the quintessence of Vietnamese literary works and look for translation opportunities.
