铁骨柔情,忧深思远——晚明女诗人蔡玉卿诗歌评述

A Review of Poetry by Cai Yuqing in the Late Ming Dynasty

蔡玉卿作为诗书画三绝的女才人,在明末清初社会动乱时期谱写出了壯歌,打破了闺中诗作哀婉惆怅的书写格局,为女性诗歌的发展注入了新的活力。从蔡玉卿传世的诗歌来看,也不乏对深闺生活清新的描写,不同风格的作品反映出了不同的心境,但总的来说,蔡玉卿诗歌有豪情与柔情两种情怀。从艺术特色方面来看,她的诗歌跨越唐宋直取《十九首》,典故与叠词的应用更使她的诗带有魏晋古风的意蕴,对生活中细微意象的选取也增加了其诗的趣味性。通过对蔡玉卿现存诗歌进行分类研究,可以多方位全面的了解这位晚明"奇女子"。
