【Interpretation】
In the history of ancient Chinese literary criticism, the relationship between "wen" and "dao" has always been an important proposition in the interpretation of literary theorists of all dynasties.
Han Yu, the leader of the ancient prose movement in the Tang Dynasty, put forward "rhetoric to clarify the Tao" in order to oppose the extravagant literary style since the Six Dynasties.
Li Han, his protégé, wrote clearly in the preface to "Mr. Changli Collection": "The literati is a tool to penetrate the Tao." This means that the article is a tool to penetrate the "Dao", emphasizing that writing an article should solve the real society. question.
The above point of view actually reflects Han Yu's literary thought.
On the basis of "Writing follows Tao", Zhou Dunyi, a Neo-Confucianist in the Northern Song Dynasty, further put forward the proposition that "Writing carries Tao".
The ancient prose movement advocated by Han Yu was based on his article "Original Tao".
Regarding the "Dao" of "Writing to follow the Tao", he stated in "Original Tao": "The so-called Tao of Siwu is not the Tao of the so-called old and Buddha." Han Yu strictly limited the "Dao" to the scope of the Confucian Taoism. It rejects Buddhism and Taoism, and believes that only Confucianism can remedy shortcomings and reshape personalities.
He claimed to be the successor of the Confucian Taoism, and by advocating the ancient prose movement, he was determined to revive Confucianism.
