Abstract The first half of Yuan Haowen' s life fell within a time when the scholars were fairly actively in the late Jin Dynasty, and by the collapse of the Jin Dynasty, Yuan had become a central figure among the scholars. The Mongolian invasion was a disaster to the Jin society and many scholars lost their lives in the war. Yuan survived, but death haunted him and the departure of his friends and kin was traumatic to his soul. Yuan was not knocked down by his personal tragedy; instead, he was determined to show to the public the tragedy of the scholars as a whole. In his Anthology of the Middle State, his strong sense of tragic consciousness scintillate through the lives of poets, epitaphs and poems, telling us his internal solitude and pains.
