Abstract: Abstract：Behind Mu Dan’s most important war-themed poetry of the 1940s hides a grand political ideal, a modern political consciousness whereby to overcome and“digest”the cruel war experience; though this consciousness can hardly get away from the liberal groups and the scope that is defined by their democratic and liberal ideology, it leads Mu further towards its spiritual foundation. The relationship between Mu’s religious and democratic consciousnesses, therefore, has become a topic that is worth studying. At the back of the general social picture of Mu’s poetry there is a more powerful Christian picture. Provoked by the war experience,Mu undergoes a spiritual mutation from historical justice to transcendent justice, but both aims to fulfill a poetic justice. The religious consciousness in Mu’s poetry provides his democratic consciousness and imagination with a corresponding moral content.
