Three New Topics in the Study of Xie Lingyun

Article Summary   by:TsingHua     Original Author: Journal of Shandong Teachers' University(Social Science Edition)

The poem of Linli Xiangsong Zhi Fangshan is an artistic expression of Xie Lingyun's fate after the Song Dynasty began. Xie did not object the burgeoning dynasty, but unconsciously he got involved in palace politics, and was banished from the capital, which the proud poet could not take in. When in office his aristocratic style was hardly tolerated by the authority, hence his sad ending. His last two poems-Linchuan Beishou and Lingzhong Shi embodied the conflict in his mind. It is not necessary, nor is it possible for him to rebel again the Song Dynasty, only that his behavior could not be allowed by Liu Yikang, Situ of the court, which resulted in his unnatural death. As to the false accusations directed against him, Xie Lingyun thought it scorn to give them any exculpation, besides a deep sense of the absurdity of the world. Feeling wronged, he acted rashly as if he was a survivor of the East Jin Dynasty and would rebel again the Song Dynasty, when he was being a little bit abnormal. Mr. Lu Xun once planned to collate the works of Xie Lingyun, but did not finish, the materials he left, however, were a good reference for the later generations.
