钱锺书评点《文心雕龙》辑录

A Collection of Qian Zhong-shu’s Commentary on Wen Xin Diao Long

《文心雕龙》是我国古代文论的经典之作。学术大师钱锺书先生对刘勰和《文心雕龙》虽无专文进行研讨,但在其《管锥编》、《谈艺录》等谈文论艺类著作中却随机发表过很多重要的见解和精彩的点评,表现出深刻的理解和独特的眼光。这些点评或征引,从鉴赏品味语言艺术的角度出发,深入体察前人为文之用心,抉隐钩沉,细大不捐,从艺术观点,到文句字词,勿论褒贬,多能见人之所未见,发人之所未发,为我们留下了极有价值的研究资料。研究《文心雕龙》和中国文论,不应忽视钱先生的意见。认真阅读他的这些精到评骘,不仅可以释疑解惑,加深对《文心雕龙》原著的理解,还可受到治学方法的启示,有利于将龙学研究引向深入。因而辑录其有关《文心雕龙》的点评和征引,以供龙学研究之参考,应该有其必要。
