明清诗歌衰落的根本原因

The Source of Decline of Ming and Qing dynasties′ Poetry

明以后诗论有两大派:以禅宗"悟"为中心概念的一派,以李梦阳"法"为中心概念的一派。前者主创新,后者则强调复古。但这两派均没有抓住意象这一中心问题,对"兴"有一种普遍的误解和遗忘,这是明清诗歌衰落的根源。

There were two school of poetry theory: one was the school of dhyana that it took Wu(awaken) as core concept , one was the school of Limengyang, which took law as the core concept. The first school held creating and the latter stressed restoring. But two school failed all because they did not seize image, which is the real central issue,and they misunderstood Xing , this was the source of decline of Ming and Qing dynasties′ poetry.
