Qing Poetry Talks On the Study of The General Anthology of Poetry

研究清代诗学者,通常就虞山、神韵、格调、性灵、桐城、同光诸流派递衔而说其理论,很少注意到这些不同流派的论者几乎都对《诗经》有所探讨。研究《诗经》的学者,则只留心经学笺注考证之成果,集中讨论陈奂、姚际恒、胡承珙、方玉润一类经师之著作,而不知各诗话中存有着大量论《诗》之言论。本文考述《清诗话》、《续清诗话》所载资料中之论《诗经》文献,以补历来研究者之阙。观察清代诗话中数量惊人的《诗经》论述,我们发现它乃是宋明以文学角度解释《诗经》这个传统的强势发展。不但尊《诗》以为文学之本源、典范,亦以此破经生之迂执。强调《诗》须作诗读,应注意其比兴寄托,阐发诗语言的奥秘,亦由此深入处理了唐宋之分、诗文之辨、正与变、情与理、意与法等理论问题。许多观点足以与现代文学理论相印证,更是深入了解清代诗学不能不重新审视的一条线索。
