张西堂的《诗经》研究

Zhang Xitang′s research on The Book of Songs

对张西堂先生的《诗经》研究进行评析,以其《诗经六论》为依据。张西堂认为《诗经》是中国古代的乐歌总集;古代并无采诗之事,故亦无古诗三千而取其三百之事;孔子删诗亦不可信;关于《诗经》的体制,张先生认为"南"与"国风"不同,南、雅、颂都是乐器;张先生驳斥了《毛诗序》之种种谬妄,对于《毛诗序》之作者,张先生亦力辨其非。对于《诗经》的思想内容和艺术表现,张先生也有剀切入里的分析。张先生的《诗经》研究,对于后人产生了相当大的影响,虽然有的结论可商榷,而张先生的研究方法,主要是罗列比较法和以诗证诗法,体现了朴学的严谨扎实的学风。

Mr. Zhang Xitang＇s research on The Book of Songs was studied mainly based on his Six Essays on the Book of Songs. Zhang Xitang holds The Book of Song as the ancient Chinese Songs collection, which in ancient China no selections of songs, about 300 poems chosen among 3 000 poems were impossible;Confucius censored poems also can not be trusted ;for the system of The Book of Song, Mr. Zhang regards Nan, Ya, and Song as instruments, different from Guofeng; Mr. Zhang refutes not only all sorts of absurd paradox of Maoshixu, but also its author. Mr. Zhang also penetrates into the ideological content and artistic expression of The Book of Songs. His studies on The Book of Song have a considerable impact on the later generations, though some conclusions still are open to dis- cuss. As to Mr. Zhang＇s research methods, they mainly are enumerating and comparing, embodies strict and solid school tradition of the Critical Interpretation of Ancient Texts.
