- Abstract
Taking the poems of Bao Zhao 鮑照 and Xie Tiao 謝脁 as exempla, this article tracks the growth of the ”tree of cnunciative derivation” of landscape aesthetics in the post-Xie Lingyun 謝靈運 era. The author argues that the poets of this era had not only shifted their attention geographic ally from the mountains and hills of Fujian 福建 and Zhejiang 浙江 to the plains of the middle and lower reaches of Yangzi River, but also developed a particular interest in describing distant views from small hills. Bao Zhao situates the landscape within a broad Heaven-Earth framework, thereby adding astronomical and moist atmospheric phenomena to his ”mount and river” poems. The contrast between mountains/ water and colors of Xie Lingyun's primitive framework is therefore replaced by an impression of chiaroscuro in the natural landscape. The poet finds in the moist atmospheric phenomena between the river and sky reflection s of his own emotions in structure and tone, and thus these phenomena become symbols of the dazed, gloomy moods he experiences while wandering in strange lands. What Xie Tiao views in the distance is the fengjing (風景 light and atmosphere) of the landscape framed by the windows and doors of his office in Xuancheng 宣城. This viewpoint not only connects the natural landscape with the city vista, but also endows the landscape with a new take on this compositional perspective. Herein the poet is sensible of the subtle variations within the same limited frame. each of which causes a simultaneous stirring in his heart . The article concludes with a rethinking of the concept of ”landscape poetry,” contending that so-called landscape poetry is nothing more than a term fabricated by modern scholars of literary history. The growth of the tree of enunciative derivation of landscape aesthetics is not so much a development of landscape poetry as a process by which the beauty of the natural landscape, after being ”discovered” by the poets of Eastern Jin (of whom Xie Lingyun is a representative), gradually permeated into such themes as touring, seeing -off, parting, office leisure, traveling, meditation on the past, missing home, wandering in the realm of immortals,and frontier fortress poetry.
