欲效风雅追贤圣,且就义法赋诗篇——论方苞的诗作和诗论

On Fang Bao's Poems and Poetic Theories

桐城是一个诗人辈出的地方,方苞之父兄师友许多都是杰出的诗人,方苞在其影响下很早便对诗歌创作产生了兴趣,并且终身没有中断过诗歌的创作。其诗作流传不多,就目前所存诗作看来,可谓义正辞雅但韵味稍逊,因此其诗歌也受到了一些人的批评。作为一个文论家,方苞的诗论继承了传统诗论中"诗如其人"、"文以载道"的观点,重视诗人的经史根基和诗歌内容,又与其古文"义法"理论中之"言有物"一脉相承。方苞诗作和诗论成为后来桐城诗派的先声,值得学者研究和重视。

Tongcheng giving birth to a large number of poets, Fang Bao＇s father, brother, teachers and friends were distinguished poets, under whose impact, Fang Bao became interested in poetry early and through his whole life never stopped his poetry creation. Only a few of his poems have been passed onto the present day, which can be described as of righteousness and elegance, but of less charm, and that is why his poems have also been criticized by some people. As a literary critic, Fang Bao inherited the traditional poetic theories, such as ＂＂ consistence between poetry and poet＂, ＂writings for conveying truth＂ and so on. He also highlighted poets＇ basic literary and historical knowledge, and poetry contents, which is line with his theory of ＂meaningful words＂ for classical literary style prose. His poetry and poetic theories set an example for the later Tongcheng Poetic School, which is worth study and attention.
