Caused by history,culture,aesthetic standards,etc.post Tang Yuefu poems of the 6 dynasties of Song,Liao,Jin,Yuan,Ming and Qing are qualitatively changed and apparently different from those of the 2 dynasties of Han and Tang,Viewing it from the perspective of famous Yuefu pieces,post Tang Yuefu poems fall into 2 categories of old and new themes.Neco theme Yuefu consists of extempore,Gexing and Zhuzhi Yuefu.In the study of Post Tang Yuefu poems,it won′t do to scrutinize the works in the same light as with Han and Tang Yuefu poems.The thesis of “non Yuefu Gexing” by Matsuura Misasuke,a Japanese scholar,is utterly inconsistent with the reality of post Tang Yuefu poems and cannot be used to define post Tang Yuefu Gexing.

The Border Town has six major editions(texts):the early edition,the first edition,the revised edition,the corrected edition,the re-proofing edition and the complete works edition.From the first edition to the revised one,the Border Town reflects the art modifications and the obviousness of the author’ screative ideas;from the revised edition to the corrected one,the book deals with the adjustmen the author makes to adapt to the new code of the language and ethics and his insistence on the concept of literature as well as makes some art amendments. In fact, only two pionts take place in the whole course of the change of editions“text test”and the other is the author’s adherence to the literature concept with “life” as the core.Comprehensively speaking, the complete worksedition can be called as a “good edition”.

The erotics of art emphasizes the form and therefore sensibility, it's a loud shout to the ear of sensibility. There are some likeness between erotics of art and aesthetical liberation of Eros of H.Marcuse. As a base of life, eros finally walks to an end with aesthetics, that's freedom.Susan sontag claimed that the erotics of art from against interpretation is intersubjectivity and indivisibility of body and mind.The base of erotics is eros which is fundamentality life.With the eros,art goes to freedom finally. Uudoubtedly, this proposition of Susan is instructive to the criticism and theory of art in China for that the erotic of art means form and sensibility of art.

The original sense of Gewu(investigation of things)got lost as a result of disarrangement of the tablets of The Great Learning.It was an intricate case in the academic history.To inquire into the original sense of Gewu, the present paper started from the original text of the Han and the Tang dynasties to probe into the changes of The Great Learning text.And at last it was discovered that in sorting out the text in his commentary,Philosopher after Zeng made the first disarrangement of the tablets,and in re-sorting,the Song dynasty Confucians made the second.The two changes mixed the words into other sections which the Song dynasty Confucians looked upon as “missing tablets” and made up the deficinency in their own way.Such became the main cause of the complete darkness of the saying abut Gewu.After the restoration of the orignal state of The Great Learning,words of “knowledge lies in Gewu” naturally appeared,and that was virtually the words Confucius used on litigation,wherein the original sense of Gewu was implied,i.e.the exhaustive study of the nature of things.Looking at the full text of The Great Learning,one can see that the gist of “knowledge lies in Gewu” rests in keeping composed.

In the context of contemporary research on religious studies,the term “religious experience” as one of the basic essentials is one with embiguous meanings. On different occasions or in different theoretical systems of religious studies,it often has meanings not fully the same or even entirely different.First of all,therefore,it is imperative to conduct an investigation of its name and connotations and then analyse the heart of the matter,i.e.“personal experience in religion”,and further on,a discussion is to be held of its two dimensions of mystique and non-mystique so as to pry into the where of the essence of religious experience.

In his succession to Mencius,Wang Anshi was the first to start dealing with king and despot through “disposition”,which led the annotation in the Song Dynasty study of The Annals,and on the basis of which Lu’s discrimination of righteousness,benefit and fame,position was further developed in consideration for the then situation and expectancy after the south transition of the Song royal household.It can be seen that Lu gave first priority to theory in his choice of king and despot,such was originafed from Mencius.Therefore,to Lu dealing with the kingly rule by virtue was exactly a “realm”.

By exploiting the terminological laws of Chu Ci and Wang-Yi-noted Chu Ci,and in combination with the evidence of the Chu Ci prints(other than Supplementary Notes to Chu Ci) and other relevant documents handed down from ancient times,reasonable corrections can be made of the wrong contents of “dao(fall),tuo(cast),yan(spread) and e(bluff)” as seen in Wang Yi's Syntactics and Semantics of Chu Ci in the modern edition of Supplementary Notes to Chu Ci,hence offering help to the further checks and arrangements of the Syntactics and Semantics.
