袁凯《题葛洪移家图》探析

Inscription on the Picture of Ge Hong's Moving by Yuan Kai

袁凯在元明之际名擅诗坛,其《题葛洪移家图》一诗塑造了一个与宗教史上有所不同的葛洪形象。袁凯告诫世人,葛洪求仙之说实属妄诞。袁凯误读葛洪的价值表现在三个方面,首先透露了袁凯明哲保身的心态,其次反映了中国多元文化并存格局下儒家文化的主导性地位,最后折射了道教外丹派在元明之际时期尴尬的境遇。

Ge Hong, an important person in the history of Taoism, was much talked about in many poems and essays. Yuan Kai, a famous poet around the turn of the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, wrote an Inscription on the Picture of Ge Hong＇ s Moving, depicting him differently from what he had been like in folk beliefs and fables. Yuan Kai tried to show that that Ge Hong wanted to become an immortal was unbelievable. It can be inferred from his understanding that Yuan Kai was worldly-wise and played safe, Confucianism was dominant under the co-existence of multiple cul- tures in China and the Waidan School of Taoism was in an awkward position in the Yuan Dynasty.
