苏诗创新小议

Brief Discussion on the Innovation of SHU Shi's Poems

本文针对历代对苏氏诗歌创新特点的指责,从题材、立意、构思、用事等方面全面考察了苏诗创新的优长,并且对唐宋诗之争作出了初步的合乎历史观的检讨,认为:宋代是唐代后最有成就的诗歌朝代,宋诗的成就在于没有学唐诗,后代所有学唐诗的唐诗派比起宋诗的成就相去甚远,所以苏轼不是使古代诗歌倒退的祸首,而是创造唐诗后又一座高峰———宋诗的功臣。

This paper reviews comprehensively the advantages of the innovation of SHU Shi＇ s poems from different perspectives such as subject matter, theme, conception and narration as opposed to the rebuke on his innovation in poetry in the past dynasties. It makes an initial analysis of the dispute on Tang poetry and Song Poetry which conforms to historical view. It is believed that Song Dynasty is the most successful and fruitful in poetry after Tang Dynasty. The achievement of Song poetry lies in not following the tradition of Tang poetry. All the Tang poetry schools after Song Dynasty which follow Tang＇ s tradition achieve far less than Song poetry. As a result, SHU Shi is not a failure who reverses the ancient poetry tradition, but a success who creates Song poetry another peak in poetry after Tang poetry.
