隐逸大家陶渊明与梭罗的不同点解读

An Interpretation of the Differences between Tao Yuanming and Thoreau as Scholars in Seclusion

陶渊明是我国东晋时期著名的隐逸诗人,因为"不能为五斗米折腰向乡里小人"而毅然辞职归隐家乡,隐居后开始进行田间劳作,并把这种"悠然见南山"的生活写进了诗歌,开创了我国田园诗派,成为后世知识分子的精神楷模。亨利·戴维·梭罗是美国早期文坛巨匠、超经验主义哲学先驱,为了体验纯自然的生活,一度跑到马萨诸塞州的瓦尔登湖畔过起了隐居的生活。近年来对两者的比较研究很多,但大多数是相似点的比较,两者隐居的时代背景、原因、精神境界以及对后人的影响等不同点则研究得比较少。

Tao Yuanming, a famous poet in Chinese Eastern Jin Dynasty, resigned and lived in reclusion because he was not willing to bow to the superior to get the scanty pay. Later he was devoted to farm work and composed his poetry with his life of ＂see Nanshan leisurely＂, which started the pastoral poetry in China and made him the spiritual model of later intellectuals. Henry David Thoreau, a literary giant and pioneer in Super Empiricism Philosophy in early America, once left for the Walden in Massachusetts to live a pure natural life in reclusion. In recent years, dozens of researches have studied the two scholars, mostly on their similarities, however, their differences in aspects of historical backgrounds, reasons for reclusion, mental realm and influences on later generations are wanting in research.
