| The Tang and Song dynasties were the prosperous period of ancient Chinese economy and culture,as well as the prosperous period of urban planning and foothill development.The Northern Piedmont of Qinling Mountains is not only the best place for the Royal and scholar bureaucrats,but also the place for scholars to study and live in.Relying on the superior natural environment and profound cultural heritage in the region,the landscape culture and famous poems and paintings rooted in the Northern Piedmont of Qinling Mountains have been produced,which also provides us with a new path to form a harmonious image of human settlements.Zhang Zai’s theory of Qi is the theoretical basis of the system of "harmony between man and nature".Understanding the theory of Qi is helpful to deepen and expand our understanding of the vernacular landscape under the concept of harmony between man and nature.The research scope of this paper is to the south of Weihe River,the foothills of Qinling Mountain and Guanzhong Plain,including Baoji administrative region.From the perspective of Zhang Zai Qi theory,this paper explores the vernacular landscape image of the most prosperous period in the northern foothills of Qinling Mountain,and also interprets the philosophical and cultural roots of "the unity of man and nature".First of all,through the investigation of the current situation of the northern foot of Qinling Mountains,the collection and induction of historical documents,this paper explores the relationship between Zhang Zai Qi’s theory and the vernacular landscape image,and divides the three types of landscape image from three different philosophical perspectives: visible image,invisible image and mental image,so as to lay a foundation for the analysis of vernacular landscape image and the expansion of the scope of vernacular landscape theory;Secondly,taking the mine field experiment of Wangchuan bieye and Zhang Zai in Meixian County and the Jingjiao Temple of Daqin as examples,this paper interprets the general picture of the landscape image of villages,farmland,religion and landscape under the background of the northern foot of Qinling Mountains from literature and landscape poetry and painting;Finally,it concludes that the northern foot of Qinling Mountain in Tang and Song Dynasties not only became the source of Chinese landscape culture,but also provided rich and profound landscape image basis for the construction of human settlements in the region.Based on Zhang Zai’s theory of Qi,this paper interprets the image of rural landscape.By exploring the relationship between it and the natural geographical environment and the construction of human landscape,it interprets the simple and harmonious landscape and pastoral images of temples,other industries and human settlements in the northern foot of Qinling Mountains in the Tang and Song Dynasties,and integrates the concept of natural ecology with landscape and pastoral landscape,which not only opens up a new research perspective,At the same time,it provides some inspiration and guidance of image,artistic conception and overall meteorology to improve the disordered urban and rural environment and the development and planning of human settlements in the northern foot of Qinling Mountains.The research innovation of this paper can be summarized as three aspects: first,from the perspective of philosophy,it studies the "image" of landscape composition from three perspectives,which enhances the depth and breadth of exploration of vernacular landscape;The second is to establish a descriptive research framework of rural landscape based on the historical background;The third is to summarize the vernacular landscape image paradigm of the four landscape systems in the northern foot of Qinling Mountains in the Tang and Song dynasties. |
