论沈曾植的学人之诗

On Shen Zengzhi's Scholarly Poetry

沈曾植是晚清著名的学者,他的诗歌是典型的学人之诗,诗中不仅有深奥的学术思想,而且僻典奥语,层见叠出。可以说,他的诗歌达到了中国古典诗歌以学问为诗的巅峰状态,造"学人之诗"之极,此前此后都没有人引学问入诗如此之深、之繁、之僻。沈曾植的诗歌表明古典诗歌发展到近代后期,基本丧失了清新朴实的天然之风,学问化长期潜在的问题使它的生息气脉已折耗殆尽。

Shen Zengzhi,a famous scholar in late Qing Dynasty,wrote a lot of scholar poetry.His poetry contains profound knowledge,classical allusion and witty remarks,with some seldom-used words and phrases.It is never extravagant to say that his poetry reached the peak of perfection so that no one could overpass even though the poetry is abstruse,redundant and rare.Shen＇s poetry demonstrates that Chinese classical poetry has entered the late modern stage,lost almost all its purity and freshness,and has been exhausted by underlying problems.
