论毛奇龄对《惠崇春江晓景》的评价

Discussion on Mao Qi-ling's Evaluation of Su Shi's Poem

毛奇龄对苏轼名篇《惠崇春江晓景》中"春江水暖鸭先知"一句的评价,引来当时以及后世诗家的批评,成为一段有趣的诗坛公案。虽然毛氏对苏句的解释乃强作解人,但大多对毛氏的批评里也有误解与歪曲,未能在完全理解毛氏意思的基础上进行正确评价。

Maoqiling＇ s evaluation of SuShi＇ s masterpiece （ ＂The duck knows first when the river becomes warm in spring. ＂ ） cause many criticism by many poets, and became a very interesting story. Although Mao＇ s interpretation of Sushi＇ s poem is not accu- rate, most of the criticism of Mao also has misunderstanding or distortion. They made the inaccurate evaluation, because they didn＇ t understand Mao＇ s real meaning fully.
