诗境禅心——司空图《二十四诗品》中的禅与境

On Zen and Artistic Prospect of Si Kongtu's Studies of Twenty-four Poetic Styles

司空图《二十四诗品》以四言诗的形式描画了中国传统诗学之风格体系,其造境说理之模式显示出一种对诗歌意境追求的自觉。意境说之生成与中唐诗风之转变及禅宗的影响关系甚深,禅宗激发了诗人空灵悠远的诗境追求。《二十四诗品》机锋般的说诗方式也显示禅学理论对司空图诗学的深刻影响,可以说是中国传统儒道释三教融合在诗学理论领域的一大创获。

Studies of Twenty-four Poetic Styles by Si Kongtu portrays the Chinese traditional poetic style in the form of four-character verse, and its pattern of creating and reasoning displays the consciousness of pursuing the poetic landscape. The emergence of the theory of mental landscape tied in with the changes of poetic style in Mid-Tang Dynasty inspires the poetic pursuit of ethereal leisure. The heuristic style of Studies of Twenty-four Poetic Styles also demonstrates that the Zen theory has made great influence on Si Kongtu＇ s poetic theory. It＇ s reasonable to say that Studies of Twenty-four Poetic Styles is a creative accomplishment made by the coalescence of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism in the field of poetic theories.
