“心生而言立,言立而文明”释

Elaboration of From Xin(Mind) to Speech and from Speech to Article

孟子"知言"说的文学意义是从文学接受角度立论,被认为是一种接受美学。刘勰对孟子"知言"说进行了创造性转换,从创作立言角度提出"心生而言立,言立而文明"的理论命题。此命题必然隐含着一个逻辑前提,那就是"心"、"言"、"文"三者的有机统一。这成为刘勰"搦笔论文"的理论基础。从此出发,刘勰提出了文章写作的根本原则。此外,该命题也表现了刘勰对立言者主体精神的高度重视。

Literary significance of ＂Know the Words well＂ by Mencius is based on literary reception and is regarded as a kind of reception of esthetics. Liu Xie made a creative transition towards ＂Know the Words well＂ by Mencius. From an angle of writing, he brought forward an idea ＂From Xin （Mind） to Speech＂ and ＂From Speech to Article＂. The topic hides a logic precondition nec- essarily that mind, speech and article are centralized. This is the theoretical basis on Liu Xie＇ s writing. The fundamental principle of the view on writing is from Liu Xie. In addition, the topic displays that Liu Xie attached importance to the subject spirit of writ- ing.
