This paper would illuminate why and how Zhuangzi’s Tao is realized by poetic way of speaking.First chapter would illuminate the reason why Zhuangzi must use poetic way of speaking to realize his Tao. The way of "comparing" thinking which is the way of rational thinking couldnot express Zhuangzi’s Tao, only the way of "creating" thinking which is poetic way of speaking could realize his Tao. The thing that is distinguished by Zhuangzi’s important concept "distinguish" could join together because of the familiarity of the parts,The way to leave is the way to back that is the poetic way of speaking.There is two theories of language:Expression and Language speaking,last one that is the poetic way of speaking is the way Zhuangzi realize his Tao."Tianlai" that is poetic speaking hold attendee far away to keep it,and poetic speaking that is Tao speaking would be a sound of silence,that is Zhuanzi’s "the great debate keep silent".Second chapter would illuminate the concrete form of Zhuangzi’s Tao’s poetic way of speaking, those are dramatic dialog and image. Zhuangzi is good at using dramatic dialog to spread his poetic way of speaking, and use the productbility of dramatic dialog to realize Tao by itself in the text. Then further more to analyse the relationship between dramatic dialog,audience and writer. And how to realize Tao in these relationship.Then comparing lognitudinal method of interpretation which pay attention to dramatic dialog of Zhuagnzi’s own and transverse method of interpretation which lead his concept and thinking to other world of thinking. Then analyse the mostly image used by Zhuangzi,such as birds,animals,trees,disabled people,Confucius. And illuminate their effect for realizing his Tao.Third chapter would illuminate the relationship between Zhuangzi’s poetic way of speaking and interflow of three religions. Leading Zhuangzi to Confucian that happens in Zhuangzi’s note writed by Xiangxiu and Guoxiang is on the ground of analogic method of interpretation. Leading Zhuangzi to Buddhism that happens in note of Zhuangzi’s inner book writed by Master Shideqing is on the ground of analogic method of interpretation. Both of these ignore Zhuangzi’s poetic way of speaking, and only pay attention to concrete concept and words and sentences, then get Zhuangzi out of itself. So illuminating that poetic way of speaking is the key to keep Zhuangzi’s own particularity and existence.
