1, Tao Yuanming was a poet, writer and politician in the Eastern Jin Dynasty, with a prominent background, but he was lofty and disdainful of power and had lived in seclusion many times. His pastoral poems are famous for their nature and profound thoughts, which have a far-reaching influence on later literature.

2. Wang Xizhi was a calligrapher in the Eastern Jin and Southern Dynasties. His exquisite calligraphy was highly praised by later generations. He also has the experience of seclusion and self-cultivation. He once built a hut next to the family cemetery and devoted himself to studying calligraphy and painting.

3. Both Tao Yuanming and Wang Xizhi are famous cultural celebrities in the history of China. Both of them have reclusive experiences and literary achievements, so they are often called "true hermits". Because both of them have outstanding talents and seclusion experience, it is difficult to determine which one is a "real hermit". Both of them have made indelible contributions in their respective fields and provided important cultural heritage. As future generations, we should cherish and inherit their ideological and artistic achievements.

Hermits are those who long for an official position, but don't have the opportunity or ability to do it. They are not hermits. Those who have no education, such as farmers, woodcutters, thin people and old people, are not hermits. Only those hermits who can maintain their independent personality, pursue freedom of thought, do not compromise, do not rely on power, have extraordinary talents and knowledge, and are really unwilling to enter the official position from the heart are called hermits.
