The relation between The development of Chinese classical literature and geographic environment is very deep,which objectively exists and transformed with the history.As a result the relation between geography and literature become multilevel and inter-constructional.In the one hand the geography environment makes influence on the literature's style,subject,form,substance,artistic conception and images,this is so-called jiang shan zhi zhu;in another one,literature not only reflects geography passively but participates in the geography culture's adjunction and proliferation,even changing the cultural environment in an area.Apparently in this process people are the subject and a bridge.Studying the geography environment or the influence on the literature bringed about by the geography environment both should be centered with the gentlemen who are the subjectivities in creating literature.In Chinese history there are some cites making far-reaching influence on the literature such as Chang An,Luo Yang,Nan Jing and Hang Zhou,all were the nation's capitals which have prolific nature resource and deep historic civilization layers,which should be the most important reason for influencing the gentlemen's writing.Luo Yang,as an ancient city where there were thirteen dynasties building their capital,has an irreplaceable meaning and value in the Chinese ancient literature history.Especially,in Tang and North-Song Dynasty Luo Yang is the provisional capital,with its position changed in nation political life,which made different influence on the gentlemen's ideology,attitude towards life,lifestyle,aesthetic realm,literature,literary concepts.According to researcher's data,there are 800 poems about Luo Yang in Tang Dynasty,and in my data Song poems on Luo Yang is about 3000,if Song lyric and articles included,the number is very big obviously.Based on gentlemen of Tang Dynasty,there are more creating in Song Dynasty gentlemen's literature on Luo Yang,which is worth considerate studying.In terms of many materials in Tang and Song Dynasty,and because of time and knowledge,the paper should be clued by Luo Yang and the study starts with concreting problems to discuss the typical and representative literature phenomena and gentlemen's emotion to evaluate the value and meaning in the contemplation of literature history.Therefore the main purpose of the paper is to research how to manifest the Luo Yang in gentlemen's literature,how to accept the area's effect as for gentlemen and the influence's reflection in the literature field.Concretely speaking,the paper will develop with five monographic topics as follows,covering Luo Yang landscape(garden and flower)in literature and the influence on the gentlemen's cultural mentality,existing style and life interest.Generally speaking as follows:The first chapter is centered with Ping Quan poem written by Li Deyu.From exhibiting,remembering and hermitage to analyze Li Deyu's Ping Quan emotion.The perspective of Li Deyu can be generalized with flat showing and three-dimensional memory.The former one is to reveal the Ping Quan emotion's construction,and the latter one is mainly to stress the hermitage in Li Deyu's minds.The value of Ping Quan poems is not determined by the literature character but by the feeling tension in them.The second chapter is around the Luo Yang Mu Dan Ji of OuYang xiu.As the same,from aesthetics,natural history and memory to make a deep investigation and more personal reading.If from the gentlemen's aesthetic perception on the peony this article is just a case in the trend;but if from writer's perspective the article reflects a researcher's natural viewpoints and feeling memory.In the chapter it responses to American researcher Ronald-Egan.Luo Yang Mu Dan it is traditional not new,personal not public,it is a result of aesthetic perception,natural knowledge and personal memory.The third chapter is to make a research on the Mao Yin,a special lifestyle of gentlemen.From the Chinese physician Mao Yin is not applied to physical habit even seems harmful to health.Bai Juyi is not good at spirits but he always try that easy-drunk lifestyle.Especially he came back to Luo Yang as a chancellor with lots of leisure time,he often experienced Mao Yin and made it normal.In past researchers always study Bai Juyi's alcoholics from the literature perspective,but the chapter will analyze the poet's lifestyle from people's performance to reveal the reason of Bai Juyi's Mao Yin and this lifestyle's influence on the poet's emotion.The fourth chapter is to study Bai Juyi and his garden.Bai Juyi spend his old age in Lv Dao garden.The relation between the host and the garden is worth studying.As for Bai Juyi,Lv Dao garden is not only a surviving physical space but also a poetic environment.The process of building environment represents host's life interest and Bai Juyi constructed his old age happy by closing the door,folding stones,digging pond and interpreting meaning.The fifth chapter is to study Ou Yang xiu's Luo Yang memory.Memory is an important emotional human activitiy,also a time experience.It contacts with the past and present.The memory subjective experiences the past time and feel the present in his own situation.In the memory situation,OuYang xiu appreciated the happy taste but when he leaved that situation to come back to reality the sorrow will happened to him.However that is not his complete Luo Yang memory.OuYang xiu started asking the immortal question of existence by recalling the flowers,the gentlemen and the sightseeing with them,which leads the memory to immortal dimension.From OuYang xiu's minds there are feeling which makes him enjoyed or sorrowful and reasons which drives him to jump from the sadness to deal with the life positively.The five chapters above can not be composed to a complete system,and seems a little scattered,which looks like a assemblage clued by Luo Yang.It reflects the relation between the ancient capital and gentlemen's literature in Tang and Song Dynasty from different aspects.From which we can investigate the interactivity between poets and area,the area and the literature's kinds of respects.Depend on the revealing of the relation above we can imagine that it will provide some cases on the relation between Luo Yang and gentlemen's literature during the Mid-ancient even the modern-ancient in a panoramic view.Also it will supply a geographic interpreting for the literature transformation from Tang to Song Dynasty.
