Abstract
Studies on the poetry of ��The Dream of the Red Chamber�� should carefully distinguish between ��poetics�� and ��poetry��: while the novel claims high Tang poetry, which emphasizes gediao ��� as ideal models, in practice it adopts themes of mid-late Tang poetry, which scarifies elegance for rich variations and emphasizes xingling ���F. This paper focuses on the poetic practice in ��The Dream of the Red Chamber��, covering aesthetic paradigms through style trends and image formations, to adoption and transformation of previous poetic works. Through detailed analysis it is clear that ��The Dream of the Red Chamber�� in practice uses mid-late Tang poetry as its aspiration and source. Lastly, I discuss the psychological similarity between the poets of mid-late Tang and the characters in the novel to further illuminate the narrative background and the deep motivation of ��The Dream of the Red Chamber��.
