美的守护者——沈从文审美批评论略

Guardian of Beauty-Discussion of Shen Congwen's Aesthetic Criticism

美是沈从文艺术世界的核心,他善于从文学作品的美学特征来探索作家的审美追求。沈从文认为,诗歌艺术的关键在于"文字技术"与"形式韵律",文体成为其审美批评的测度。从而,沈从文文学批评成功地超越"政见""、商业"与"友谊"的羁绊。沈从文审美批评的成因与楚文化的熏染以及他唯美的文艺思想密切相关。

Aesthetic was the focus of Shen Cong-wen＇s artistic world. In criticism, he was apt to explore the writer＇s aesthetic pursuits from aesthetic characteristics of the works. Shen thought that the poem＇s appeal was determined by ＂technique of the words＂ and ＂rhythm scheme＂. He regarded the style of writing as aesthetic standards. Thus his literary criticism succeeded in surmounting the fetters of ＂political views＂, ＂commerce＂ and ＂friendship＂. His aesthetic criticism was connected with the culture of Chu State and his aesthetic conception.
