Tao Yuanming and Manuscript Culture
The Record of a Dusty Table Xiaofei Tian

As medieval Chinese manuscripts were copied and recopied through the centuries, both mistakes and deliberate editorial changes were introduced, thereby affecting readers' impressions of the author's intent. In Tao Yuanming and Manuscript Culture, Xiaofei Tian shows how readers not only experience authors but produce them by shaping texts to their interpretation. Tian examines the mechanics and history of textual transmission in China by focusing on the evolution over the centuries of the reclusive poet Tao Yuanming into a figure of epic stature.
Considered emblematic of the national character, Tao Yuanming (also known as Tao Qian, 365?-427 c.e.) is admired for having turned his back on active government service and city life to live a simple rural life of voluntary poverty. The artlessness of his poetic style is held as the highest literary and moral ideal, and literary critics have taken great pains to demonstrate perfect consistency between Tao Yuanming's life and poetry. Earlier work on Tao Yuanming has tended to accept this image, interpreting the poems to confirm the image.
Tao Yuanming and Manuscript Culture is a study of how this cultural icon was produced and of the elusive traces of another, historical Tao Yuanming behind the icon. By comparing four early biographies of the poet, Tian shows how these are in large measure constructed out of Tao Yuanming's self-image as projected in his poetry and prose. Drawing on work in European medieval literature, she demonstrates the fluidity of the Chinese medieval textual world and how its materials were historically reconfigured for later purposes.

Revival of Daoism and mutual interpretation of Daoism and Confucianism
The orthodox Confucianism of the Han Dynasty that was only able to comment the old canonical books and to produce a sterile officialdom, was thoroughly discredited by the end of Later Han. Retiring from governmental offices became the normal way of life for the literati and the scholarship. The most famous representatives of this attitude were the "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" ( Zhulin Qixian 竹林七賢: Ruan Ji 阮籍, Xi Kang 嵇康, Shan Tao 山濤, Xiang Xiu 向秀, Liu Ling 劉伶, Wang Rong 王戎, and Ruan Xian 阮咸) that engaged in highly sophisticated discussions ("pure discussions"

3 Poems After Tao Yuanming by David Young 1. Spending the Day by the River Xie New Year’s Day
and suddenly I’m sixty, my life getting ready
to melt back where it came from— thinking of that
stirs up my heart makes me enjoy
this day I’m given perfect weather
cloudless sky we sit beside this river
that has so far to run watching the bright mullet
move in the weak current listen to calling gulls
that cross the quiet valley look out across the marshes
that stretch into the distance gazing all the way to
Layered Wall Mountain— maybe not so gorgeous as the famous Kunlun peaks but easily the most majestic thing in sight. I brought a jar of wine to entertain my friends— raising our filled beakers we drink each other’s health don’t know if we will ever all get back together after a few cups all my thoughts sail loose all my millennial worries drop off and float away I find my full contentment in this very moment all those dark tomorrows lost to view. 2. Elegy for Me You can’t have life without death too maybe we die young— that’s not necessarily wrong last night we were human beings

T'ao Y¼an-ming , was one of the most influential pre- Tang Dynasty Chinese poets He came from a notable family which had descended into poverty; when young, he was torn between ambition and a desire to retreat into solitude. He served in a series of minor posts, but his sister's death, as well as disgust at the corruption and infighting of the Jin Court prompted his resignation, convincing him that life was too short to compromise on his principles; as he put it himself, 'I shall not break my back for five bushels of grain' (The term 'five bushels of grain' is often used to describe officialdom). He lived in retirement for his last 22 years. Approximately 120 of his poems survive, which depict an idyllic pastoral life of farming and drinking. His works had a major influence on subsequent poets. edit

    y Tao Yuanming [1]
    During the Taiyuan era [2] of the Jin Dynasty [3] there was a man of Wuling [4] who made his living as a fisherman. Once while following a stream he forgot how far he had gone. He suddenly came to a grove of blossoming peach trees. It lined both banks for several hundred paces and included not a single other kind of tree. Petals of the dazzling and fragrant blossoms were falling everywhere in profusion. Thinking this place highly unusual, the fisherman advanced once again in wanting to see how far it went. [1] Chinese nature poet, c. 365-427. This prose story is one of the poet's most well-known works.

    [4] A place in present-day Hunan Province. The peach trees stopped at the stream's source, where the fisherman came to a mountain with a small opening through which it seemed he could see light. Leaving his boat, he entered the opening. At first it was so narrow that he could barely pass, but after advancing a short distance it suddenly opened up to reveal a broad, flat area with imposing houses, good fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees, bamboo, and the like. The fisherman saw paths extending among the fields in all directions, and could hear the sounds of chickens and dogs. Men and women working in the fields all wore clothing that looked like that of foreign lands. The elderly and children all seemed to be happy and enjoying themselves.

    (67.) The proprietor used phrases from "Returning Home" to name various sites in this garden (among them a "Pine and Chrysanthemum Hall"), putting up placards with the name for each. Coming and going among them, he explained in an essay, he felt as if he were in silent conversation with Tao, sharing his life and his contentment; "wherever I walk, I am 'returning home,'" See Chao Buzhi (1053-1110), Guilaizi ming Mincheng suo ju ji (Record of Master Returning-Home naming the sites of his residence in Mincheng), in Jilei ji, ed.

    Long before Tao Qian and Cao Pi, around the turn of the third century B.C.E., the poet Qu Yuan had written of eating chrysanthemum petals, clearly as a tonic. (27) Old legends told of many other users. Wu Bin, a master of longevity techniques, taught his ninety-year-old former wife to make a concoction including chrysanthemums; she regained her vigor and was still living over a hundred years later. (28) Ge Hong (283-343), a famous immortality seeker and author of a book of advice on the subject, offers a recipe for chrysanthemums mixed with the brains of an exotic blue foxlike beast, said to ensure five hundred years of life.

Knechtges, University of Washington Discussant: Stephen Owen, Harvard University Keywords: leisure, medieval China, Six Dynasties, Tang, culture. Leisure was a remarkable, ubiquitous phenomenon in medieval Chinese culture, yet it has rarely been treated in scholarly discourse. It figures in or underlies many literary, historical and cultural documents from the period, revealing a distinct culture of leisure. It cannot be reduced to empty time to be filled or simply defined against work, raising a host of complex issues such as (un)productivity, morality, self-expression and modes of reading. This panel explores the idea and practices of leisure in the Six Dynasties and early Tang through examinations of their formulations in architecture, music and literature. qin , in medieval culture.

    Organizer: Colin Hawes , University of British Columbia Chair: Xiaoshan Yang , University of Notre Dame Discussant: Alice W. Cheang , University of Notre Dame No writer escapes his or her antecedents. In the Chinese tradition, past literary practices and practitioners are understood to loom particularly large. Overwhelmed by their cultural inheritance, runs the common assumption, classical Chinese authors, far from straining for originality, eagerly sought to "transmit" the received wisdom of their forebears and "return to the ancients." What if this identification with the past—for some authors, or in certain periods, at least—is regarded as a mainly superficial gesture which masks real intentions to clear creative space by subverting powerful predecessors? To what extent can resistance to the pressure of established models, or the anxieties of influence endured by late-born "talents" striving to prove themselves, be gauged? The panel also assesses on the theoretical level the relevance in the Chinese context of such Western perspectives as Harold Bloom’s concept of the "anxiety of influence," and whether the Chinese tradition offers a viable alternative to Freudian-inspired terms.

    Retirement at Xie Brook: Su GuoÕs Continuation of Su ShiÕs Literary Association with Tao Yuanming
    Su Guo Ĭ¹L (1072Ð1123), the youngest son of the prominent Northern Song scholar-official Su Shi (1037Ð-1101), is known to posterity primarily because of association with his father. Su GuoÕs biography in the Song History is appended to that of Su Shi. Because his poetry and calligraphic style were said to resemble those of Su Dongpo ĬªF©Y , he was popularly known by the diminutive ÒXiao Po ¤p©Y .Ó Among the six sons of Su Shi and his brother Su Zhe (1039Ð1112), only Su Guo was accorded a biography in the dynastic history; only his collected works are extant. A consideration of Su GuoÕs poetry and prose in his Xiechuan ji ±×¤t¶° reveals that in diction, style and theme, he was influenced by Su Shi. The earliest poems in the collection were composed when Su Guo accompanied his father during exiles in Huizhou and Danzhou. Many of the poems were written to the match the rhymes of his fatherÕs original compositions. One of the consolations expressed by Su Shi during this time was the realization that his son possessed literary talent. The choice of the alternate name Retired Scholar of Xie Brook ±×¤t©~¤h reflected Su GuoÕs regard for Tao Yuanming ³³²W©ú (365-427). Furthermore, alluding to the place of TaoÕs roaming, Xie Brook, Su Guo titled his collected works. Although Su Guo did not compose, as did his father, rhyme-matching poems for all of the works in Tao YuanmingÕs corpus, he wrote numerous poems that referenced TaoÕs works. Certainly Su GuoÕs poems paled in comparison with those of Su Shi; nonetheless several of his poems are excellent compositions. As a calligrapher, Su Guo wrote in several styles preferred by his father; for deceased members of the Su family, Su Guo was called upon to provide calligraphy for funerary inscriptions and grave stele.
