1, Tao Yuanming's greatest influence on later generations should be his outstanding independent, mysterious and refined personality realm. His personality spirit has been rooted in the soul of China culture, and almost all the literati of past dynasties can find their own shadow from Tao Yuanming, and get spiritual comfort or strength from it. Meng Haoran, an idyllic poet in Tang Dynasty, worshipped Tao Yuanming. He wrote in "Going to Hannan to Send Old Beijing in Summer": "Appreciate" Gao Tu Zhuan ",the best Tao Zhengjun, calling himself Emperor Xi." Meng Haoran intended to learn from Tao Yuanming, absorbed the essence of Tao Yuanming's personality and achieved great success.
Li Bai admired Tao Yuanming's character and poetry. In "Reporting to Zheng Liyang", he wrote: "Ling Tao is drunk every day and doesn't know five willows. Su Qin has no strings and pours wine with a towel. Under the breezy north window, I call myself Emperor Xi. When I arrived at chestnuts, I met my life. " Li Bai's thought of "Oh, how can I bow and scrape to high officials" and Tao Yuanming's spirit of "not bowing down for a bucket of rice" come down in one continuous line.
Bai Juyi, who called himself "extraordinary Tao Liangyuan", highly praised Tao Yuanming. After visiting Sima Ren's home in Jiangzhou, Tao Gong said, "When I visit my old house today, Sen Ruojun is in front. Don't envy a bottle of wine, don't envy a piano without strings Mu Jun's legacy was brilliant, and he died of old age here in Yuan Qiu "(Interview with Tao Gong's former residence), and sincerely appreciated Tao Yuanming's noble character of not being greedy but willing to die of old age.
4. During the Northern Song Dynasty, Tao Yuanming's position in the history of China literature was further consolidated and confirmed. Su Shi once commented on Tao Yuanming: If you want to be an official, you must be an official and you must not be disrespectful; If you want to be hidden, you will be hidden instead of looking for it. When you are hungry, you will buckle the door and beg for food; When you are full, welcome guests with chicken and millet. Ancient and modern saints, your truth is also. Su Shi regarded Tao Yuanming as a mentor and friend all his life. He not only loves his poems, but also admires him as a person. In his later years, Su Shi said in The Book with Su Zhe: "I am deeply ashamed of my profound knowledge and want to take the evening festival as a warning.
Xin Qiji, a patriotic poet in the Southern Song Dynasty, cited Tao Yuanming as his confidant in the depression of serving the country. In Nian Nujiao, he said: "Under the hedge of picking chrysanthemums, it is not credible, and only Tao Pengze has a high love for thousands of years", giving Tao Yuanming the highest evaluation of "one person through the ages".
6./kloc-For more than 500 years, Tao Yuanming, with his insipid and profound immortal personality charm, has influenced countless career winners and losers, given them spiritual sustenance and spiritual home, profoundly influenced their thoughts and creations, and made inestimable contributions to the development and prosperity of China literature.
