Abstract
The history of Chinese poetry and painting research has deep roots, and the concept of "poetry and painting sharing the same origin" has been present since ancient times. In Western literary studies, the term "ekphrasis" meaning "expressing through words", has been introduced. By examining the research on ekphrasis in cross-art narration, it is found that ekphrasis serves as a typical form of cross-art narration, using language as a medium of expression while respecting the narrative characteristics of literary art. It simultaneously pursues visual effects and spatial qualities, embodying an aesthetic "Andersstreben". This makes it a distinctive form of cross-artistic narration. This paper, through the study of the culture and arts of the Tidal Bore of the Qiantang River, reveals the characteristics of cross-art narration in this region. By establishing a self-built corpus of ancient poems related to the Qiantang River Tidal Bore, the paper aims to investigate the phenomenon of ekphrasis in the poetry concerning the Qiantang River Tidal Bore, trying to find a breakthrough for in-depth humanistic research into the cross-art narration of the Qiantang River Tidal Bore. The goal is to display the multidimensional charm of the Qiantang River Tidal Bore culture and provide a new perspective for international communication and dissemination of the Qiantang River Tidal Bore and its culture, thereby assisting in its UNESCO World Heritage application.
