欧阳修散文的美学特质

On the Aesthetic Traits of Ouyang Xiu's Prose

欧阳修以其"文章道德为一世学者宗师"。他的散文,具有幽情雅韵与纡徐婉曲之美。它的形成,来源于欧公的涵养和学问;也与有宋一代三教合流的社会思潮有关;再加上欧阳修在仕途上屡遭挫折,这就更促使主体意识逐渐转向内观自省,从而使他的散文具有了这种风神。第二,平淡质直与条达疏畅,是欧阳修散文又一重要的美学特质。这是我国古代散文以"实用求审美"这一最高美学追求发展的必然结果,也是欧公视"言"、"事"为一体的产物,当然与宋朝最高统治者曾多次下诏纠正浮靡文风也不无关系。第三,容与简易与凝练自然,是欧阳修散文又一显著的美学特质。这首先得力于欧公那认真踏实、一板一眼的审美习惯和刻苦用功的严谨写作态度;其次,来自于欧阳修知性反省的理性思考、尚辩驳的思想倾向;再次来源于他那舍我其谁的责任感和事业心。
