《毛诗序》的“吟咏情性”观

Chanting Poetry Feeling in MaoShiXu

《毛诗序》是在继承自上而下的文化理路的背景中首先提出“吟咏情性”这一观点的;其诗学倾向以政教功能为指归,现实目的是为了提高诗在意识形态领域的地位,也使得诗论自此走出了对乐论的依从,然而为儒家所乐道的道德境界日趋消匿。

It is the first time that the view of? chanting poetry feeling? is proposed in MaoShiXu, which partially inherits the traditional pattern of poetic writing. This view tends to stress political and cultural functions of poetry with the actual purpose to enhance poetic status in the realm of ideology; As a result, the theory of poetry is ridded of its previous dependence on the theory of music, and the moral horizons upheld by the Confucians were fading away.
