Chinese Poetry Abroad:on Silla's New Generation Poet Choi Gwang You's Chinese Poetry
YIN Yun-zhen;JIN Ji-yong;
Choi GwangYou was one of the most famous scholars and poets of the new generation in Silla period. He visited China when he was young and had taken the highest imperial exams for oversea students. Numerous poems written in Chinese characters by Choi failed to be handed down and only some of them are collected in Footnoted Poetry of the Wises and Anthology of Eastern Literature. Choi described the hard experience on a foreign land in his poems and expressed his yearning for home, nature and a secluded life. He was good at conveying his emotions, joys and aesthetic ambition through the quotations of Chinese historical figures and allusions, which made his poems unique with artistic glamour. This clearly proves the extensive spreading of Chinese literature to East Asia. Choi's yearning for nature and a secluded lifestyle connects closely with the literary creation during Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasties represented by the "Seven Sages in the Bamboo Grove".
