摘要
陶渊明构建了中国本土大同理想的社会蓝图——"桃花源"。后世对其含义的理解主要有二:一是现实的人间乐园,二是憧憬的理想社会。唐代这一观念发生了很大的变化,唐人笔下的"桃源"大多已成神仙居所。唐代道教大盛,帝王迷信神仙方药,文士崇迷域外仙界,民间则流行祈福攘灾的仙道法术。在此社会氛围和文化背景之下,唐代文士的意识深受影响,崇道是"桃源"意象仙化的主要动因。
TAO Yuan-ming drew a utopian blueprint for the Great Unity in his Taohuayuan Poetry and Notes. The image of Taoyuan is generally regarded by later generations either as an earthly paradise or a longed-for ideal society. This image underwent considerable change in Tang Dynasty when Taoyuan became the dwelling place for the immortals in the writings of men of letters. In Tang Dynasty, both Taoism and Buddhism were in their full bloom while Taoism was at the height of its splendour. Most emperors indulged in theurgy, intellectuals made a fetish of wonderland, and the practice of praying for blessing and misfortune aversion was fashionable among ordinary people. The present author believes that the consciousness of intellectuals in Tang Dynasty could not but be affected by such social atmosphere and literary context. Henceforth, the dominance of Taoism is the chief reason for the deification of Taoyuan image.
