“Tao-admiration” is an important cultural phenomenon in Chinese ancient history of literature and thought. Two aspects may illustrate it: the later men of letters spoke highly of Tang Yuanming’s lofty moral character and his returning to the rural life as a hermit; the happy life as a hermit and his peace of mind reflected in his pastoral poetry has aroused high applause. The historical development of “Tao-admiration” complex reflects the deep influence of Taosim’s hermit culture on Chinese men of letters and the central reflection of the Confucianism-Taoism complementation.%崇陶现象是中国古代文学和思想文化史上的一个重要的文化现象,它具体表现在两个方面:首先,后世文人对陶渊明不慕名利的高贵人格和归隐田园的隐逸行为的推崇;其次,是对陶渊明平淡自然的田园诗中表现出的归隐之乐和宁静心态的向往和崇敬。崇陶现象的产生及流变,不仅表明了道家隐逸文化对中国古代文人的影响之深,而且也是儒道思想互补的重要体现。
