A Confucian Confusion: A Poem Dedicated to the Late Taiwanese Filmmaker Edward Yang


It is early morning
It is high noon
It is late night
I do things
Just as my ancestors did
I sit alone
By the lake of mind
I see your face
Beneath the water
We never get tired
Of gazing at each other
I call out to you
Silently comes an echo
I dedicate these moments
To you alone, for you
I groom myself


Notes

1 Edward Yang (楊德昌) was one of the most gifted filmmakers of the Taiwanese New Wave Cinema. His films express the confusion, anxiety, and sheer beauty of societal transformation. His 1994 film, A Confucian Confusion (獨立時代), struggles mainly with the division between the modern and the traditional.

2 Cinematheque Ontario is presenting a complete retrospective to Edward Yang (1947-2007), Edward Yang’s Taipei Stories, which includes the great Taiwanese director’s masterpieces.

․Taipei Story on Friday, March 7 at 7:30 p.m.

A Confucian Confusion is 獨立時代

I just know it. How different!
