Literature is the typical source material of humanistic geography research, among which, with its unique historical insight, poetry keeps key records of object factors and subjects’experience of geographical cognition. By selecting the previous dynasties poetries in Lushan Mountain as research materials, then using the method of humanistic geography combined with quantitative statistical method, the paper extract combination law and historical evolution characteristics of geographical cognition objects, as well as the process and mechanism of geographical cognition subjects in the poetries of great span of historical period.The results of the research are listed as follows:(1) The geographical cognition objects of poetries mainly include five landscape types, namely mountains, hydrology, meteorology, biology, architecture, and in all landscape combinations, the two of mountains with hydrology and meteorology are the most in common.(2) Under the influence of such factors like distance, direction, light, colour and so on, the geographical cognition of poetries in Lushan Mountain presents combination of space and time characteristics such as the intergeneration of far and near, motion and stillness in unity, the change of light and shade, color rendering, harmony of cool and warm, the contrast of ancient and modern, human and nature in one and so on.(3) The geographical cognition characteristics of Lushan Mountain poetries in different historical periods are different, the styles and contents of which have experienced a evolution process include "hermit and nature" in the stage of Wei Jin South and North dynasties,"humanity and misty" in the stage of Sui and Tang dynasties,"religion and logos" in the stage of Song and Yuan dynasties,"antiquities and nonpolitical" in the stage of Ming and Qing dynasties and "various style of writing and imagist" in the Republican stage.
