论胡适改称“白话诗”为“新诗”

On Hu Shi's Renaming of Baihuashi (Vernacular Poetry) to Xinshi(New Poetry)

从"白话诗"到"新诗"的改称,是中国现代诗歌史中的一个重要事件,它反映了胡适在不同时期对中国现代诗歌命名问题的不同认识,其中涉及两个名称出现的时间、各自的含义及其间之关系、改称的原因及结果等诸多问题,而探讨胡适的相关观点是解释这一事件的关键。

The Renaming of Baihuashi（vernacular poetry） to Xinshi （New Poetry） is an sig- nificant issue in the history of Chinese modern poetry. It reflects the change of Hu Shi＇s under- standing of naming of Chinese modern poetry in different times. The renaming involves the re- spective naming time, the respective connotations, the relationship between two names as well as the cause and the result of renaming. All those questions can be answered by the research on Hu Shi ＇ s viewpoints.
