Briefly explain Neo-Daoism.
What will be an ideal response?
The return of Daoism after it was suppressed in the Han dynasty is known as Neo-Daoism. Wang Bi and Guo Xiang wrote commentaries on the Daode Jing and the Zhuangzi, and they became important figures in this movement. The "Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove" forged a new Daoist way of life that influenced wider culture, not just that of mountain monasteries. This broader cultural influence of Neo-Daoism was felt in calligraphy, painting, music, and poetry. Daoist ideas on landscape painting contributed to a style that would last until modern times—the placement of human activities against a very large, imposing natural setting.
