游戏在规则之间——解读唐宋词审美愉悦

Play with the Rules——Unscramble AestheticEnjoyment of Poetry in Ci Form

词作为“艳科”、“小道”,起源于宴乐,流行于舞榭歌场,以艳情柔媚的风格作为叙事方式,取代了诗歌的统治地位而成为鼎盛一时的文学主流。这样一种文学形式的流行和兴盛,可以说是一个社会符号系统对欲望的妥协。在这场语言的集体狂欢中,词作为一种特殊的文化景观,游戏在社会角色规则、性别规则以及语言本身的规则之中,成为中国古代文学一朵盛极而糜的奇葩,也为今世之人带来与众不同的审美愉悦。

The origin of poetry in Ci form was the songs of banquets. Then Ci poetry was fashionable in all kinds of casinos, midways, or recreation grounds. It replaced the Tang poetry by voluptuous and sweet narrating way, became the prevailing mainstream of literature. The bloom of Ci poetry was a compromise between social symbol system and human desire. As a kind of special culture sight, Ci poetry played with the social role rules, gender rules, and language rules, became the exotic flower in the end ofthe golden ages of Chinese ancient literature, and brought different aesthetic enjoyment to today＇s people.
