怎一个“妙”字了得——《送侯权秀才序》三论

Can 'Wonderful' Summarizes the Appropriateness——Three Explanations of A Letter to the Scholar Hou Quan

《送侯权秀才序》是白居易写给昔日同窗侯权的赠序,除了傅璇琮在《唐代科举与文学》一书中引述外,至今没有引起更多研究者的注意。该序全文不足三百字,却于尺幅之中尽显非凡的腕力,篇幅短小却含蕴丰厚、意味无穷。除文体内涵丰富外,其抒写手法亦十分精妙,且包涵深广的社会内容。既有较高的审美价值,又有极强的认知价值。

A Letter to the Scholar Hou Quan is written by Bai Juyi for his good friend as a gift.Apart from Mr.Fu Xuancong＇s quotation from it in his book ＇Tang Dynasty Imperial Examination and Literature＇,it has attracted little attention of researchers.The paper points out that though Bai Juyi＇s work is less than 300 characters,it is rich in meaning,infinite for thoughts,which manifests author＇s great art expressive force in short length.Besides the rich connotation of literary style,it is exquisite in writing techniques and covers deep and broad social content.It has not only the strong esthetic value,but also the very good cognition value.
