5. Service Or Reclusion: Tu Fu's Confucian Dilemma - Articles - House Of Hermits - China's greatest poet Tu Fu suffered the Confucian dilemma of service versus reclusionand seclusion. http://www.hermitary.com/articles/tu_fu.html

HOME Articles Book Reviews Features ARTICLES: HOUSE OF HERMITS T This central dilemma is especially relevant to the adherent of Confucianism in ancient and medieval China, with its emphasis on the scholar or "gentleman" acculturated into a lifetime of loyalty and service to the emperor and state, but also charged with a strong sense of ethics. In the Analects , Confucius writes: "What I call a great minister is one who will only serve the emperor when it can be done without infringement of the Way, and as soon as this is impossible, resigns." (11.23) "Best of all is to withdraw from one's generation; next to withdraw to another land; next to leave because of a look; next to leave because of a word." (14.39). And this: "When good governance prevails in the empire, [the scholar] is in evidence. When it is without good governance, he withdraws." (8.13) There are other such interpretive passages throughout Confucianism. But it was the compelling ethics that haunted Tu Fu, as much as his own private irresolution. Early Years After this clear embarrassment to his family, Tu Fu took a share of his wealth and began a series of travels and explorations that he described as "more than eight years of lively freedom." Afterwards he became a "temp," seeking out literary employments in the court or of a court or provincial official as he could. His Confucianism animated his keen sense of duty and obligation to support the emperor, but Tu Fu was too smart to not see the decadence and corruption of the central government. These years of dissolution taught him the pleasure of the wine cup, the beauty of poetry, and a grudging admiration of eremiticism. This latter he learned from the somewhat distorted examples of Li Po and Kao Shih, celebrants of aesthetics and cynicism.

Born to a literary family in the Hunan Province of China in 712, his family’s social position assured Tu Fu a traditional Confucian education. Perhaps through intrigue, or because of his radical views, Tu Fu failed an Imperial test in 736, which, if he had passed, would have guaranteed him a civil service post and a life of relative security. After failing the test, he traveled throughout China and earned a reputation as a humanistic poet well grounded in reality. It was during this time that he met his idol, the poet Li Po, a Taoist who celebrated the virtues of love, wine, and nature. The two traveled together for a while and Tu Fu dabbled in Taoism, but was unable to balance the world he lived in with the disassociation of Taoism, and soon returned to the capital and Confucianism. Tu Fu was well regarded during the 740s, even though he held no official position, had no money, and failed a second Imperial examination. In the mid 750s he sought and attained Imperial recognition in the form of a minor appointment, married, and acquired some land.

home home guestbook linx gallery ... sitemap This website is dedicated to the martial arts of China. There are hundreds of different styles of Chinese martial arts, all with their own backgounds, folklore, and characteristics. They can be devided in the modern contemporary styles, called Wu Shu , (which literally means Martial Art) like Chang Quan and Nan Quan , and the traditional styles, called Kung Fu (or Gong Fu ), which means something like 'effort',or 'achievement after using energy'. Then after having made the division between the traditional and the modern styles, it's inevitable to make a difference between the northern- and the southern- chinese styles, where as the northern styles lay an emphasis on the footwork, the southern styles lay more of an emphasis on the hand- and arm-techniques. Therefore the Chinese use the expression : ' Nan Quan, Bei Tuei ', meaning 'Fists of the South, Legs from the North'. Then, to make a final distinction between the different styles, we have to make the division between the 'hard' and the 'soft' styles, like Taiji Quan Baguazhang , and Omei Quan There are too many styles to line them all up here, so we've tried to devide them into different sections, as you can see in the menu.
