Beskrivning
This study is a heavily annotated translation and discussion of Xiao Yi’s (508–555) “Xuanlan fu” (Fu on Perception of Profundity). Xiao Yi, posthumously known as Emperor Yuan of Liang (r. 552–555), was the seventh son of Emperor Wu of Liang (r. 502–549). As an ambitious prince, Xiao Yi composed the “Xuanlan fu” in 545, at the height of his official career. The composition is a retrospective poetic account of his career after he was granted the noble title of Prince of Xiangdong, signposted throughout by passages describing his moving from place to place to take up official posts over thirty-plus years.
