固穷守志,以贫傲世的陶渊明

Tao Yuanming,a poet who is content with poetry and adhere to his aspirations and feels proud with his poetry

在陶渊明现存一百二十多首诗歌中,涉及"固穷"安贫这一主题的竟占三分之一强,这是他的独创。以《咏贫士》为代表的表现"安贫乐道、固穷守志"的诗歌,真实反映了诗人晚年贫困交加的生活状态和复杂激烈的内心矛盾,抒写了对生命孤独的体验和对理想人格的追求,表达了与士族社会决裂的不屈服的决心和高洁豁达的人生态度,是构成陶渊明的"金刚怒目"式作品的重要组成部分,体现了他后期创作沉郁豪放的风格。

Among the existing over 120 poems written by Tao Yuanming, more than one third relate to the theme of ＂being firmly entrenched in and feeling happy with poetry＂, that is his creation. Those poems as ＂the Song of the Poor＂ as example, showing Tao＇s characteristics of ＂feeling satisfied with poor life and being happy with the Way＂ and ＂being content with poetry and to adhere to his aspirations＂, honestly reflect how he was in dire straits and torn by conflicting thoughts in his later years. They also show his understanding about loneliness in life and his seeking for ideal integrity as well as his unyielding determination to break away from the gentry and his noble and optimistic attitude towards life. These poems are important component of his ＂glaring as a temple＇s door god＂ works and exemplify his deep and rich and unconstrained writing style in his later years
