二十世纪四十年代新文学家旧体诗复兴及其成因

Revival of Classic Poetry among New Litterateurs in 1940s and the Causes

二十世纪四十年代,新文学家创作发表了大量旧体诗。本文即对这一现象的成因进行探讨:首先是新诗与旧诗本身形式艺术上的差异;其次是当时的文学潮流和社会背景有关;再次,还与新旧诗所承担的社会功能上的差异有关,旧体诗的唱和、题画功能为新诗所不具备。因而,旧体诗在四十年代的兴盛可以看成是必然的存在。

In 1940s, new litterateurs published a large number of poems in classic style. This article attempts to explore the causes for this phenomenon. Firstly, new poetry and classic poetry were different in form. Secondly, the literature trend at that time was closely related to the social background. Thirdly, new poetry and classic poetry played different social roles, for class poetry had the functions of responding and painting inscription which new poems lack. Therefore, the prosperity of classic poetry in 1940s can be regarded as unavoidable.
