中唐党争与文坛风尚:《毛仙翁赠行诗》的真伪、价值及相关问题考论

Struggles between Political Groups and Literary Trends in the Middle Period of the Tang Dynasty:A Study of A Collection of Mao Xianweng-related Poems

《毛仙翁赠行诗》是一部小型诗集,涉及韩愈、白居易、元稹、牛僧孺等中晚唐22位重要作者,关涉问题极广。诗集内容为杜光庭伪造的可能性不大,纂集者也不是杜光庭,杜只是在集后缀写了一篇《毛先翁传》。诗集是否伪托,难有定论,客观地说,朱金城先生的话相对恰切,即"亦非尽伪作"。该集很可能纂辑于晚唐五代,但可以肯定,至迟在北宋初已开始流行,有重要的文献价值。《毛先翁赠行诗》把中晚唐重要士人与一位道士交游题赠的作品纂为一集,这本身极具深意。通过《赠行诗》编次结构和内容的探讨,可以管窥中晚唐党争的复杂过程及中晚唐"尚奇"、"嗜怪"文风的形成。毛仙翁其人除了《毛仙翁传》的记载,鲜有其他记录,但也不是凭空想象中人。

Though A Collection of Mao Xianweng-related Poems is a fairly small collection of poems,it collects some poems of 22 important poets like Han Yu,Bai Juyi,Yuan Zhen and Niu Sengru.This paper discusses the previous studies on its possible author and the compilation of this work as well as the reflection of the struggles between political groups and literary trends in the middle period of the Tang dynasty.
