This volume presents a collection of interdisciplinary collaborations between contemporary art, heritage, anthropological, and archaeological practitioners. Departing from the proceedings of the Sixth World Archaeological Congress’s ‘Archaeologies of Art’ theme and Ábhar agus Meon exhibitions, it includes papers by seminal figures as well as experimental work by those who are exploring the application of artistic methods and theory to the practice of archaeology. Art and archaeology: collaborations, conversations, criticisms encourages the creative interplay of various approaches to ‘art’ and ‘archaeology’ so these new modes of expression can contribute to how we understand the world. Established topics such as cave art, monumental architecture and land art will be discussed alongside contemporary video art, performance art and relational arts practices. Here, the parallel roles of artists as makers of new worlds and archaeologists as makers of pasts worlds are brought together to understand the influences of human creativity.
Such striking words of “1998 Poetry Guild’s Official Call For Entries” attracted my attention. After days of consideration, I translated my Chinese poem “Diplomacy” into English and submitted. I was happy to find that my poem was accepted and collected into Shelter from the Storm. I didn’t pay for an entry fee, but of course, I paid for the book. I was quite encouraged. Hence, I continued to submit my poetry to Poetry Guild, the International Library of Poetry, and the Noble House Publishers. Now I have thirty-two poems collected into anthologies of these publishers. Many of such poems are also found in The Sound of Poetry. In these years, I do not translate or rewrite my Chinese poems into English alone. I also read English poetry and try to write poetry with the English language. “Uncle Horn” is one of such poems.

The Shih-shuo hsin-yu, conventionally translated as A New Account of Tales of the World, is one of the most significant works in the entire Chinese literary tradition. It established a genre (the Shih-shuo t'i) and inspired dozens of imitations from the later part of the Tang dynasty (618-907) to the early Republican era of the 20th century. The Shih-shuo hsin-yu consists of more than a thousand historical anecdotes about elite life in the late Han dynasty and the Wei-Chin period (about AD 150-420).
