略论叶芝创作的内在张力

On the Internal Tension of Yeats' Works

"张力"是新批评中一个非常重要的术语,意指诗歌有机整体中矛盾冲突而又和平共处和相互构成的辩证关系。叶芝的创作体现了私人性和公共性、抽象性和具体性、本土性和世界性等方面的对立统一,展现了一个充满张力的艺术世界。内在张力使叶芝的创作具有了多义性、包容性、戏剧性和反讽性等多重审美意蕴。叶芝的创作超越了浪漫主义的对立和割裂,具有了鲜明的现代特征。

Tension,an important term in neo-criticism,refers to the dialectical relations of contradiction and peaceful co-existence in poetic organism.It is assumed that William Butler Yeats＇ works exhibit the pair features of private vs.public,private vs.concrete,and local vs.international.Internal tension makes his works polysemous,compatible,dramatic and ironic,thus surpassing the opposition and isolation exhibited by Romanticism.
