《九歌》的体式与原始“倚声填词”臆测

Conjecture on the Styles of JiuGe and Its "Composition of Ci According to the Tune"

文章将《九歌》与《九章》的体式进行对比,发现二者篇幅一短一长,体式一复杂多变一简单,其中"二湘"与"二司命"在篇幅、句式及押韵换韵等方面都相同或相似。因此,推测《九歌》既是据楚民间"九歌"的改创之词,又是倚"九歌"曲调而填写的歌词,即屈原《九歌》是据"九歌"的九支曲调填写的十一首诗歌;进而论证"倚声填词"之法并非起于唐宋或六朝,而是古已有之。

This paper makes a comparison between the poetic styles of JiuGe and JiuZhang by Qu Yuan. It finds out that JiuGe is short, while JiuZhang is long; JiuG e is complicated, while JiuZhang is simple. Among the two, Xiang Furen is the same as or similar to Da Siming and Shao Siming in length, sentence patterns, rhyme and rhythm. It can be inferred that both the words and the tune of JiuGe（11 poems） were adapted from folk ballads（9 folk songs）. Qu Yuan＇s ＂composition of Ci according to the tune＂ proves its ancient origin, rather than originated in Tang, Song, or the Six Dynasties.
