ABSTRACT

During the Sui and Tang dynasties, Buddhism and Zen poetry underwent great development. Zen poetry is diverse in form, strong in personality, and high in achievement. Among the types of Zen poetry are poems, lyrics, and prose, some of which have social attributes closely related to the development of Chinese Buddhism. An analysis reveals that the viewpoints and information conveyed in these poems, lyrics, and prose are positively correlated with the attitudes of the emperors towards Buddhism. When the attitude of the emperor towards Buddhism reached its peak of positivity during the Tang dynasty, there was a change towards a negative correlation with the viewpoints expressed in poetry.

KEYWORDS
