About This Novel
Wang Wei and Meng Haoran were earlier writers in the prosperous Tang Dynasty. They lived in the prosperous era of the Tang Dynasty in their early years, and they were all named after their pastoral poems. However, the frontier poems written during Wang Wei's time as an official also set a precedent for Gao Shi, Cen Shen and others who were famous for their frontier poems. Their landscape poems used silent words to express words and unintentional meanings, and were based on Zen and painting, which became the unique style of Wang Wei's poetic art. Meng Haoran failed in his official career and spent his whole life in the mountains and rivers of Xiangyang and on the journey to Wuyue, but he always had Wei Que in his heart and never gave up the idea of making contributions. Most of his landscape poems express dissatisfied emotions, and his descriptions of landscapes and pastoral areas all contain his own sense of wind and aesthetic appreciation of the external scenery. This book selects and annotates 121 poems and 2 articles by Wang Wei and 111 poems by Meng Haoran. The selected works not only take into account the characteristics of the Wang Meng Poetry School of the Tang Dynasty, which were mainly landscapes and pastoral, but also pay attention to the diversity and stages of the writer's creation. The second appendix introduces the lives and creations of Wang Wei and Meng Haoran in detail, and discusses the similarities, differences and contributions of Wang and Meng's poems.
