明末词学雅化的苗裔——陈子龙词学理论及其在词学史中的地位

Chen Zilong's Ci Theory and Its Position in Ci History

云间词派以突出的词学理论与创作表现振兴明词之衰,并开启了清词中兴之格局。该派的主将陈子龙被誉为"明词第一",且其词学理论在明清之交的词学批评中占有重要地位,但历来针对陈子龙词学理论的探讨却非常有限,论文从承传与发展的角度来探讨陈子龙的词学理论,以见其在词学发展史上的地位,并确立其对于明代与清代词学之承传、融通、影响的词史地位。全文先从其重要的词学观点入手,探讨其复古源流观、辨体论、词境说、风骚寄托说、体性观、审美技巧论,透过这些观点的阐述以见陈子龙的词论在词史的重要位置,他在明词中衰的困境中接续了词统的最早努力,开启了清代词坛的盛衰之辨与南北宋之争,使词既能维护其本质特性,又可朝雅化尊体的路上前进,为清代词论写下了第一页。陈子龙代表明末词坛雅化的星星之火,即将在清代成为燎原之势。

The Yunjian School of Ci studies rejuvenated the declining Ci studies in the Ming Dynasty through its remarkable theory and creation,and thus initiated the revival of Ci studies in the Qing Dynasty.Chen Zilong,the key person of the school,was honored as the notch of Ci studies in the Ming Dynasty,and his theory excelled others in the study of Ci during the Ming and Ching dynasties;there has long been limited probes into his theory so far,however.This paper attempts to examine Chen＇s Ci theory from the perspective of inheritance and development so as to reveal his position in the history of Ci development.Moreover,the paper aims to exhibit Chen Zilong＇s contribution to Ci theories in terms of the traditional style,adopted style,pretext theory,ontology and estheticism.To sum up,it was just because of Chen＇s incessant efforts and his vigorous reform that Ci had assumed a new look and set onto a way towards revival in the Ming and Qing Dynasties.
