"On Reading"is Based on Hu Hong's"Cang Tian":With"Zhong-he old theory"as the Clue
"Half acre square pond"of Zhu Xi was influenced by the Hunan school and written during the year of Bingxu enlighten-ment poem,which has long become a basic consensus in the academic community.In fact,after analyzing the poem's philosophical doc-trine,poetic expression,and Zhu Xi's travels,we found that it is also an imitation of Hu Hong's"Cang Tian"as a proof object.Through the study of the relationship between"Half Acre Square Pond"and"Cang Tian",not only can we have a more vivid and intuitive under-standing of the academic interactions between Zhu Xi and Hunan Science,but also help to grasp the evolution and transformation of Zhu Xi's philosophical thinking as a whole.
