Abstract
In the Wei and Jin Dynasties, the disasters of wars came in a continuous succession. Many literati sought to capture the lifestyle living and some wrote their ideas down in Fu賦 at this time. From “Rhapsody on the Idle Life” (Xian ju fu閒居賦) of Cao Zhi曹植(192-232) in Han and Wei Periods漢魏時期, Xian ju fu閑居賦 of Pan Yue潘岳(247-300) in Western Jin西晉, and Xian ju fu閑居賦 of Yu Chan庾闡(294?-347?) in Eastern Jin東晉, there was a series of works of literature with the theme of living (Ju-zhi 居止).
In this master’s thesis, the author analyzes three pieces of Xian ju fu in the following ways: First, the author describes the research method and brief outline. Second, as the basis of the research groundwork, the meanings of Ju-zhi in Ancient China are discussed. Third, the author interprets the selected texts of Xian ju fu one by one. This shows Cao Zhi’s difficult position between coming in and going out, Pan Yue’s central place, and Yu Chan’s mobile super-natural place. Last, the author provides a comprehensive discussion on the intextural relation in the texts, the spring scene, the living including the travelling, and the experience of place among above texts.
In conclusion, the author distinguishes Xian ju from Jing ju靜居and Yin ju隱居. These three kinds of living styles in Xian ju fu are also described in the sixth chapter. Furthermore, the appearance of Xian ju written by literati in the Wei and Jin Dynasties will be re-valued.
