A COGNITIVE POETICS INTERPRETATION OF ZEN IN WANG WEI’S LANDSCAPE POEMS

Journal Title: Topics In Education, Culture and Social Development (TECSD) - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 1

Abstract

Cognitive poetics provides a refreshed alternative of understanding literature by applying the burgeoning cognitive science, in particular, cognitive linguistics and cognitive psychology to the interpretation of literary texts. In this paper, we mainly apply the figure-ground theory, one of the most important approaches in cognitive poetics, to the interpretation of Zen in Wang Wei’s landscape poems. Based on the poetic language which profiles spatial distribution and arrangement, we find Zen is derived from the uncertainty and ambiguity of specific spatial distribution and configuration characteristics. We believe this interpretation serves a desirable means to promote the current scholastic understanding of Zen in Wang Wei’s poems
