Thesis (Ph.D.)--Yale University, 1989.

This dissertation presents an integrated study of Tao Qian in the context of classical (mainly pre-Qin to Six Dynasties) Chinese poetry, thought and aesthetics. Part I charts the poet's search for a personal and social ideal in the light of Confucianism and Daoism, the two major philosophical traditions whose visions of life lay down the archetypal patterns of existential quest for any Chinese literatus with a higher sense of ideal. Moreover, since lyrical poetry is the formalized expression of inner sentiments and experience, these alternative visions also constitute a macrostructure of meaning informing Tao's symbolic inscape, which is explored in detail in Part II. It is shown that Tao's poetry and poetics stand in fundamental unison with his ideal in life: while variations in tone, rhythm and diction among individual pieces of writing duly reflect different sides of his spiritual-emotional core and the changing contours of his inner dialectic, the entire artistic process, in crystallizing a poetry of naturalness and simplicity, itself becomes a symbolic parallel to the poet's quest in life for the same ideal. All in all, as a record of his abiding sense of purpose, his renewed resolution in remembrance of the ancient sages and his moments of epiphanic communion with the truth of Dao in Nature, poetry serves as a crucial source of inspiration which not only sustains Tao in his lifelong quest, but enables him at times to attain a spiritual-aesthetic transcendence of a shattering historical reality.Subjects--Topical Terms:
