罗宗强《魏晋南北朝文学思想史》写作得失之检视

On the Gain and Loss of Luo Zongqiang's Writing in His History of Literature and Thought in the Wei,Jin,and South and North Dynasties

《魏晋南北朝文学思想史》从整体上深刻揭示了魏晋南北朝这一时期文学思想复归的实质,同时在局部上也注意到了个别阶段文学思想发展的特殊性,如南朝时期三种不同文学观念并存的多元化情形。缺憾之处则在于,对文学观念的理解过于狭隘,忽略了文学自身应有的开放性,主要表现在两方面:首先在处理文学与政教的关系上过分强调了政教对文学的功利化;其次,相对南朝文学来说,对北朝文学思想没有给予同等的观照。

On the whole, History of Literature and Thought in the Wei , Jin, and South and North Dynasties profoundly reveals the essence of the return of literary thought in the Wei, Jin, and South and North Dynasties and at the same time locally notices the particularity of literary thought development at individual stages such as the diversification of the coexistence of three dif- ferent literary conceptions in the South Dynasty. The defect is that his understanding about liter- ary conceptions is too narrow, which leads to his neglect of the openness of literature itself. It is embodied in following two aspects. First, too much emphasis was put on the utilitarian tendency of literature influenced by politics and religion in dealing with the relationship between literature and politics and religion. Secondly,in constrast to the literature in the South Dynasty,the literary thought in the North Dynasty was not given equal concern.
