宋代南丰曾氏家族第四代诗词创作考论

A study of the poetry of the fourth Zengs at Nanfeng

南丰曾氏第四代①,在政治地位以及仕宦上没有达到上一代人(曾巩、曾布、曾肇等)的那种辉煌,而且在文学创作上也没能像上一代那样享有盛誉。但是这一代人如曾纡、曾统、曾续、曾纁、曾纮、曾绎等人的诗词创作,在北宋末、南渡初也颇受时人称道,他们大都与江西诗派成员交往密切,诗歌创作也基本都属于"江西续派",这固然是受时代环境以及诗坛创作潮流影响,但最根本的原因可以说是曾氏家族这一代人有着共同或相近的创作倾向与审美取向。

Though the fourth Zengs at Nanfeng did not match the glory of political and official career achievements by their previous generation-Zeng gong, Zeng bu, Zeng shao,etc. , nor could they outweigh the fame in literature as their predecessors, the fourth Zengs including Zengyu, Zengtong, Zengxun, Zenghong, Zengyi excelled in their poetry writing and enjoyed recognition at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the beginning of the Southern Dynasty. They had close ties with Jiangxi poetry groups and continued their tradition. This phenomenon derives from the circumstances at the time and prevalent poetic trend. But the underlying factor is the Zengs＇ proximity of styles and aesthetics to their clan ancestors.
