Su Shi's Self-understanding and Literary Writing
by Ning Wen
About This Novel
"Su Shi's self-understanding" is an investigation angle that has been relatively ignored in previous studies, but it may provide a new way of thinking for deepening the study of Su Shi that is different from pure etic judgment. Through careful reading of the text, this book sorts out and integrates the information about self in Su Shi's literary writings. It follows the discourse logic from text phenomena, life practice to thinking generation, and presents Su Shi's personal image and life status under self-examination from multiple aspects. First, we analyze the self-expression phenomena that exist in Su Shi's writings, such as self-profession, self-parody, self-mockery, and self-promotion. Then we use official experience, social relations, and natural observation as important objects of Su Shi's life practice to explore his self-recognition in specific situations. On this basis, focusing on some important ideological propositions of Su Shi, we will show how he maintains his inner peace with subjective thinking, and explore the enlightening significance of life practice for his thinking. Through the perspective of Su Shi's self-reflection, this book strives to piece together the traces of his life of "self-knowledge of warmth and coldness", revealing Su Shi's rich appearance and life experience in a relatively in-depth manner.
