"Scenery"(Jing 景)and"Poetic Scenery"(Shijing诗景):The Emergence of Poetic Concepts and the Aesthetic of Literati's Gardens in the Tang Dynasty
"Scenery"(Jing 景)became a poetic concept with landscape aesthetic meaning in the Tang Dynasty,which was closely related to the Aesthetic of Literati's Gardens in the Tang Dynasty.The landscape construction and aesthetics of the literati in the Tang Dynasty promoted the transformation of landscape aesthetics from macro remote appreciation to micro close appreciation,and the extension of natural landscape to garden landscape."Garden Scenery"(Yuanjing 园景)has become another important poetry writing object after natural landscape.Not only the"Scenery"(Jing 景),"landscape"(Fengjing 风景)and"scene"(Jingwu 景物)are used to describe the garden landscape,but also there are multiple poetic vocabulary for appreciating the garden landscape,such as"wonderful scene"(Shengjing 胜景)"clear scene"(Qingjing 清景)"serence scene"(Youjing 幽景).At the same time,under the influence of the proactive and universal behavior of"incorporating garden scenery into poetry"(Cai Yuanjing Rushi 采园景入诗),a large number of poetic phrases such as"intonating scenery"(Yinjing 吟景),"poeticization of scenery"(Rushi 入诗),"poetic emotions"(Shiqing 诗情)and"poetic thinking"(Shisi 诗思)have emerged,giving rise to the concept of"poetic scenery"(Shijing 诗景).From"scenery"(Jing 景)to"poetic scenery"(Shijing 诗景),it can be seen that the aesthetic of Tang Dynasty literati's garden landscapes played an important role in the formation of poetic concepts.
