李白精神与诗歌艺术的本质特征——天真

The Essence of Li Bai's Spirit and His Poetical Works: His Sheer Unaffectedness

李白的人格和艺术个性被现代学者用浪漫、豪放、飘逸、自我意识等来概括。本文认为“天真”更能准确揭示李白精神与诗歌艺术的本质。李白的天真在思想和行为上的突出表现是自我仙化、任侠使气、交友真诚、重然诺。他崇尚的政治理想缺乏现实性,显得十分天真,他的从政行为和政治表现也极天真幼稚。他的文艺观的本质也是天真。他的天真在诗歌创作中表现为天才、天然率真。

People used to conclude Li Bai' s personality and his artistic style as being romantic, gallant, unrestrained or self - possessed, but the text here regards that 'sheer unaffectedness' is more suitable for depicting the essential traits of Li Bai' s spirit and his poetic art. His sheer unaf fectedness was vividly represented in his worship of celestials, chivalrous experts and his sincerity and righteousness in the discourse with his friends. His political ambition and his official performance revealed his sheer unaffectedness and naive pose as well. His vision of literature and art was essentially sheer unaffected too.Sheer unaffectedness and naive pose were transformed to genuine, truthful talents in his poetic creation.
