Abstract

In order to study the influence of Buddhism, most of the temples and document in china were investigated. The results indicated that Buddhism developed rapidly in Southern dynasty. Along with the translation of Buddhist scriptures, there were lots of theories about Buddhism at that time. The most popular Buddhist theories were Prajna, Sukhavati and Nirvana. All those theories have important influence on Nan dynasty’s literati, especially on their mentality. They were quite different from literati of former dynasties: their attitude toward death, work and nature are more broad-minded. All those factors are displayed in their poems.
