李德裕(787—849),字文饶,唐代赵郡赞皇(今河北赞皇县)人,与其父李吉甫均为晚唐名相。唐文宗时,受李宗闵、牛僧儒等牛党势力倾轧,由翰林学士出为浙西观察使。太和七年,入相,复遭奸臣郑注、李训等人排斥,左迁。唐武宗即位后,李德裕再度入相,执政期间外平回鹘、内定昭义、裁汰冗官、协助武宗灭佛,功绩显赫。会昌四年八月,进封太尉、赵国公。唐武宗与李德裕之间的君臣相知成为晚唐之绝唱。后唐宣宗即位,李德裕由于位高权重,五贬为崖州司户。李德裕两度为相,太和年间为相1年8个月,会昌年间为相5年7个月,两次为相7年3个月。
李德裕·《寄茅山孙炼师三首·其三》
独寻兰渚玩迟晖,闲倚松窗望翠微。
遥想春山明月曙,玉坛清磬步虚归。
To Patriarch Sun at Hua-yang Grotto
Li Te-yü
III
Searching alone on the sand-bar with its orchids, diverted by dilatory beams of light;
Leaning at ease on the window with its pines, gazing off at blue-misted hills;
Imagining afar the spring mountains in the pale glow of the luminous moon,
And the clear lithophones at a jadestone altar—where you return from
"Pacing the Void." 1
1. A traditional chant about the transit of space by a Taoist adept.
(Edward H. Schafer 译)
