Making Fun of Pei Di 戏赠裴迪 by Wang Wei 王維

This video presents a poem by Wang Wei teasing his young friend Pei Di. I also attempt to figure out who was Pei Di? Was he the character appeared in a recent animation film 長安三萬里 or The Thirty Thousand Miles to Chang An? Was Pei Di a woman or a man? Where did he/she learnt the martial arts? Pei Di was such an interesting character!! You would definitely enjoy my detective work!

The two poems written at the monestory sound very interesting. I hope you will present them!

I am curious if Dr Gao chants translations of poems...

Pity I can only chant the poems in Mandarin. There is a traditional chanting practice revived recently. I haven't got a chance to learn it yet. Here is a link to a recording of Prof. 赵元任. th-cam.com/video/v39qXnCCyrg/w-d-xo.html

This is my favourite part of his chanting. What do you think?
