Listening to the Snowy Mountains: Cross-Cultural Resonance Between *Four Seasons: Acoustic Evidences from GANZI* and Alpine Four Seasons Poetry via Evidential Poetics

Building on the theoretical framework of Evidential Poetics proposed in the companion paper What Is Evidential Poetics? An Exploratory Cross-Cultural Framework Based on Auditory Embodiment, this study explores the auditory resonance between the Garzê snowy mountains and European Alps through a cross-cultural comparative approach. Taking the author’s unpublished 2024 poetic sequence Four Seasons: Acoustic Evidences from Garzê (Garzê also spelled as GANZI) and canonical German-Austrian alpine four seasons poetry as research objects, it adopts close textual reading, comparative analysis, and interdisciplinary integration of literary research and acoustic theory to dissect the similarities and divergences of auditory writing in the two poetic traditions. Centered on "auditory evidence", this research verifies that Evidential Poetics serves as a robust cross-cultural bridge linking Eastern and Western mountain poetics: Garzê poems translate quantifiable acoustic signals into lyrical language via embodied listening, while German-Austrian alpine poetry prioritizes symbolic and existential expression of auditory imagery. This study confirms the cross-cultural applicability of Evidential Poetics, and provides a novel perspective for the dialogue between Eastern and Western poetic traditions in global literary research.
