Lower Body Poets
The Lower Body Poets ("lower body:" Chinese 下半身, pinyin: xiaban shen or xià bàn shēn) are a movement of poets in China in the early 21st century. Among them are Yin Lichuan (尹丽川) and Shen Haobo (沈浩波). describes their work as "sit[ting] at the earthy end of the spectrum" of post Mao poetry in China, but strongly connected to older Chinese poetry and as "hip and disaffected" but still expressing "social concern".[1][2]
Other Lower Body Poets are (李红旗), (李师江), (轩辕轼轲), (巫昂), (朵渔), (马非), and (朱剑).[2]
