司空图诗中的生机

The Vitality in the Poems by SIKONG Tu

在唐末动乱不堪的时局下,诗坛也呈现出颓丧凄凉的格调,被认为是"典型的衰世之音"。然而在司空图的诗歌中,我们却能看到一些突破时代局限、"不类衰末"的亮色。诗人通过清新灵动的意象、巧妙的意象组合和静中生动等方式,呈现出一个充满生机、涌动着生命活力的意境,在唐末诗坛上呈现出异样的风采,给人以希望和慰籍。

During the time of turmoil in the late Tang dynasty, a dispirited tone appeared in the circle of poets, which is considered as ＂the typical voice of a decadent age＂. However, in the poems by SIKONG Tu, we can find some distinguishing features which break through the limitations of that period and differentiate from the dejected style of his time. The poet presents us an artistic conception full of vigor and vitality through the depiction of images, smart combinations of such images and vivid descriptions of images in their stillness. Such bright features make SIKONG Tu＇s works stand out with unique makes and leave the reader hope and comfort.
