Title: Poem, Meditative Mind and Life——On Wang Wei’s Living Wisdom in His Landscape Poems
Abstract: It is better to consider Wang Wei’s poems as the symbol of a typical attitude and wisdom for life than as a poetic symbol during the Tang Dynasty.This could be traced from the poetic landscape pictured in his works.Confronted with the fierce conflict between ideal and reality,poets would indifferently detach from the reality or painfully involve in the society,failing both to escape and be engaged in the official career;however,others,like Wang Wei,succeeded in keeping the balance and achieving those in peace.From his tranquil scenic poems,we seem to find his natural attitudes toward Meditative Mind and feel his active,sober and peaceful life philosophy.
