| 摘要: | 研究期間：10108~10207;This project is a study of over130 poems by Li Gang (1083-1140), Zhu Xi (1130-1200) and Bai Yuchan (1194-?) on travelling in Mount Wuyi, and focuses on the literary characteristics, the nature of the regional culture reflected in the poems, and their meaning and value in the culture of travel of the Song period. The research will concentrate on the following three aspects: (1) Characteristics of the poems Li Gang was a famous minister who fought against the Jin dynasty, Zhu Xi was a great master of Neo-Confucianism, and Bai Yuchan was one of the five southern patriarchs of the Quanzhen sect. These three wrote the greatest number of poems on the landscape of Mount Wuyi, and because of differences in their position, upbringing and ideas, the content, form and method of composition of their poems should have their own characteristics. (2) Content of the poems and the regional culture of Mount Wuyi The aim is to analyse the natural scenery, history, geography, local customs, humanistic teachings, religious beliefs and products economy, etc., as described in the poems, and supplemented by other literary and historical texts, to arrive at an understanding of the connection between the poems and the regional culture of Mount Wuyi. (3) Meaning and value of the poems in the culture of travel of the Song period The development of the culture of travel in the Song period was due to the development of the commercial economy, but other important factors were religion, banishment and reclusion. Li Gang was banished and returned to his native Fujian, and there he travelled and wrote poems to vent his feelings. Zhu Xi spent a long period of reclusion at Wufuli in Chong’an District, Fujian, and Mount Wuyi became the most important place for his writings, lectures and poetic composition. Bai Yuchan travelled among the fine landscape scenery, and this was a religious act, for his personal cultivation and search for the Way. The poems on travelling in Mount Wuyi of the three poets can be seen to reveal the central core of the culture of travel of the Song period. |
