Abstract
By means of close readings of several poems written by the High Tang official Zhang Jiuling 張九齡 (678–740), a discussion of the image of the boat is offered. The boat is an image so prevalent and varied in Tang poetry as to defy attempts at studying it directly. Here, though, it is suggested that paying attention at the primary level of poetic imagery—specifically to the boat with its particular functions in the physical world—can provide a fruitful inroad to just such a project, and might lead to interpretive discoveries otherwise overlooked.
