钟嵘《诗品》鲍照条疏证

Bao Zhao's Comments and Further Explanation of Former Comments at Zhong Rong's Shi Pin

钟嵘《诗品》把鲍照列于中品,钟嵘认为鲍照有张协、张华的长处,又有胜于谢混和颜延之的优异之处,"总四家而擅美,跨两代而孤出",这种评价是允当的。钟嵘还看到因为鲍照地位低下,因而"取湮当代",这也是正确的。但他认为鲍照的诗歌"贵尚巧似"、"不避危仄"、"险俗",这种评价就有些限于评价者的个人标准和当时的时代环境。而从整个诗歌发展史来看,这种评价就过于片面。

In Mr. Zhong Rong＇ s Shi Pin （Poetry Critique and Comments）, Bao Zhao＇ s poems are considered as an average ones. Zhong Rong thinks that Bao Zhao＇ s poems are of advantages of poet Zhang Xie＇ s and poet are of more excellent features than poet Xie Hun＇ s and poet Yah Yanzhi＇ s. Zhong Zhang Hua ＇ s, and Rong＇ s comment, ＂His poems inherit aesthetical effect after four famous poets, and he becomes an impressive and unique poet between two generations or dynasties＂, is fairly suitable. Zhong Rong also finds that Bao Zhao is ＂unknown by the people in his era＂ because of his inferior social status ; the explanation is also suitable. But his comment at Bao Zhao＇ s poems having the traits of ＇ typical preference for writing skills of vivid description＇ , of ＇ disregard for taboo in rhyme and oblique tone of the poem＇ , and of ＇ the edge of being vulgar＇ , is just his personal value and it has its limitation by the era ; sometimes, it was a one - sided argument if taking the development of poem into account.
