摘要

Hermann Hesse(1877-1962),the Nobel Prize winner for literature,is one of the most popular writers of the German language.The canton of Ticino,located in southern Switzerland,is the place that Hesse traveled to in 1919 in bad circumstances after the First World War.As Hesse’s second home,Ticino played an important role in his life,where Hesse was involved with novels,prose,poetry,and watercolors.In the Eastern Jin Dynasty,Chinese poet Tao bears a vision for an ideal world of beauty and peace in the“Peach Blossom Spring”.He is a master of idyllic poems,which shows his pursuit of the ideal world and a simple pastoral life.There are many similarities between Ticino by Hermann Hesse and Chinese idyllic poetry school.Therefore,the aim of the work is to reveal the similarities and differences between Hesse’s and Tao Yuanming’s work.Last but not least,the authors also hope that this work could give new impetus to Hesse research and,to a certain extent,contribute to further debate.
