dankodes * I found the best option for the weekly reminder emails, via Gmail. The external service options are more involved than our purposes require. Does anyone know anything about how to arrange an Apps Script? Basically all it has to do is tell ten people, on Saturdays, to come and get their juice/poems.
Until someone knows what to do there, I'll send out manual messages weekly. If you'd like to receive these and are not getting them, please let me know.
* If you haven't read it yet, chapter one, on tetrasyllabic shi poetry, in How to Read Chinese Poetry is hugely useful for the Book of Odes, imo.
* Remember you can also look at How to Read Chinese Poetry in Context.
* IF YOU HAVE FRIENDS WHO MIGHT LIKE TO JOIN or have other ideas, please let me know on this post.
* Every week I search the poems' English results to see if I can find any scholarship or neat bits and pop the results in Resources. Here is this week's collection.
**NEXT BATCH MAY 24.**

Re: 240. 思齊 - Si Zhai
Da Si (Tai Si) is the wife of Wen wang. Da/Tai must be the way to refer to wives of kings of this time period -- it also at one point calls Zhou Jiang "Tai Jiang". The women are: Da Ren (mother of Wen wang), Zhou Jiang (grandmother of Wen wang), Da Si (wife of Wen wang).
The vernacular translation makes it clear that the second stanza refers to Wen wang.
