Abstract/Summary:
The Gongan school of the late Ming Dynasty,named after the three brothers Yuan Zongdao,Yuan Hongdao and Yuan Zhongdao,whose hometown was located in the Gongan district of Hubei Province,initiated a wave of literary innovation to resist the influence of mimicry.Regional environment is closely related to literary characteristics.Inspired by the "sense of realism",regional writers will also give full play to their regional consciousness in humanistic vision and humanistic feelings within the region.The land of Jingchu with the Gongan as the center,as an important region for the growth and life history of the three Yuan brothers from Gongan,provided a unique cultural field and literary elements,which had a profound impact on the family life literature of three Yuan brothers from Gongan in Jingchu field.The humanistic vision of Jingchu cultural field is based on the rise of "Chu style" and the definition of "Jingchu" in the late Ming Dynasty,interpreted by the "habitus" and "capital" in Bourdieu’s field theory,and divided by the stages of the three Yuan brothers stay at home in Jingchu.From the premise,the development of "Chu style" in the late Ming Dynasty had certain influence and extension in literature,philosophy and even politics.The definition of Jingchu also takes the political,economic and cultural center of Chu as the research scope,namely Hubei region.From the perspective of the interpretation of the cultural field,because of its spatial characteristics,it further provided the possibility for the construction of the living space of the three Yuan brothers’ family life in Jingchu.The "habitus" at home realizes the world of meaning,and three kinds of "capital" become the source of power,thus forming the understanding of the "cultural field" of the three Yuan brothers’ life of Gongan school in Jingchu.From the division of three Yuan brother’s home stage in Jingchu,Yuan Zongdao’s home time was the shortest,which was divided into three stages: study at home,went home on official business,went home to rest.Yuan Hongdao’s life at home presents the stage form of line type,surface type and point type.Yuan Zhongdao stayed at home for a long time,showing seven truncated stages.The division of the stages reflects the difference of the subject’s life experience,and the key to grasp in the difference lies in the field construction of the travel footprint of the three Yuan brother in Jingchu.The travel landscape of three Yuan brothers in Jingchu is the spatial fulcrum to construct its cultural field,and different cultural field has its own characteristics.Jingchu tourism landscape are diversity.On the basis of sorting out part of the three Yuan brothers’ tourism landscape,we should carry out the construction of cultural field selectively,and finally form a set of construction mode.That is,the network built by landscape types,activity attributes and social groups of the three Yuan brothers in the Jingchu region,which is centered on the "Jingchu obsession" and forms the final "cultural field" in Jingchu.In addition,the special writing of the home landscape by the three Yuan brothers also formed the "geographical text",so as to peek into the social state,the mental field and the writing of the common motif of the subject at home period.Three Yuan brothers’ family social space in the family banquet collection and family garden presents the Jingchu rural social characteristics,namely the Jingchu features of three Yuan in the mentality,thought,group views,and the individual’s unique interpretation of the space experience.The fragmentary writing in the poem of three Yuan brother’s family affairs also reveals the transition of individual mentality.Although the three Yuan all had the consciousness of staying at home,the mentality of them were different,which was manifested as Yuan Zongdao’s self-worry,Yuan Hongdao’s self-adaptation and Yuan Zhongdao’s self-consistency.In addition,the motifs created by three Yuan family include common features,which records of the water of Jingjiang River,poems inscribed on the wall,and wild trips in the suburbs,which fully shows the cultural correlation between the subject and the region.When the cultural field of Dangyang Yuquan as a case becomes a special symbol of Yuan Zhongdao’s family life.In addition,the thought of the three Yuan cultural field in Jingchu region extends in the core characteristics of "aspirational”"peculiar" and"leisurely".Dangyang Yuquan,relying on landscape and temples,which connects public aesthetic space and private living space into a local landscape network,where Yuan Zhongdao and his relatives and monks create together,and analyze and appreciate the predecessors’ poems and articles.Among them,the "Jingchu obsession"is the embodiment of Yuan Zhongdao’s missing people and making a decision,thus Dangyang Yuquan has gradually become the life symbol in Yuan Zhongdao’s personal experience.From the perspective of the ideological characteristics of three Yuan culture field in Jingchu region,it can be divided into three categories: firstly,aspirational.Gongan three Yuan brothers’ leisure life to undertake Jingchu celebrities’ "wandering heart" and "hidden talent" core,which shows life consciousness.Secondly,peculiar.In the Chu witch culture atmosphere of Jingchu,the three Yuan brothers’ personal life history were full of the psychology of seeking for strange stories,and its essence was the ideological path of seeking truth.Thirdly,leisurely.In the common vision of the three Yuan brothers’ thoughts of enjoying leisure time,Yuan Zongdao was missing hometown’s leisure time in the court.Yuan Hongdao had a great change on concept,which from the "happy use" to "happy hidden",but in the late life of the mountain life,he was also tired of the feeling of leisure life in Jingchu region;Although Yuan Zhongdao was idle,his specific life of staying at home also had many aspects of life experience,such as suffering from thieves in his hometown,mourning the suffering of his relatives,and enjoying flowers while avoiding other people.The creative characteristics of the culture field of the three Yuan brother’s in Jingchu region show three types of elements: "regional orientation","discourse specification" and "free expression of spirit".The emphasis of each subject at home stage are analyzed by taking the constant private architectural space as the center to interact with the subject.Regional orientation takes the highlighting of Jingchu as the key point,and finally forms the Jingchu’s obsession which is condensed by rural identity and local feeling.Discourse specification,which is the geographical genetic origin influence of Zen style in Jingchu region,people’s livelihood and learning traditional on the central idea of the Gongan school of "expressing the spirit of nature,regardless of the pattern",as well as Yuan Zhongdao’s attempts to get the right to speak and make rules in the field of Dangyang Yuquan.Free expression of spirit,Yuan Hongdao and Yuan Zhongdao show the subject’s pursuit of expressing spirit and recording of human interest in the family life literature.In addition,as a private residence,Boxiu’s Shipu mountain room,Zhonglang’s Willow Wave Hall,Xiaoxu ’s Yun Danggu,in order to find the changes of three Yuan family life literature,as well as the relationship with the development of Gongan school.Boxiu stayed at Shipu home’s family atmosphere and the refreshing tone of travel notes,which was the accumulation of Gongan school;Zhonglang lived in mountain residence of Jingchu region for six years,where he took part in poetry contest with his friends,which was a change of Gongan school;Xiaoxiu gong valley to admire the beauty of flowers without company,which was the decline of Gongan school.The interaction between the subject and the region reflects the result of mutual verification.The family life of three Yuan brothers’ provides the possibility of field construction.The construction of the field and the dynamic display of the family life also provides the exploration of the living space of the three Yuan brothers’ family life in Jingchu region.
