唐代文学与文学传统

Literature in the Tang Dynasty and Literary Tradition

唐代文学是中国文学史上最辉煌的时期 ,创造了后世难以为继的繁荣。唐代文学是经过数百年艺术创作经验积累后的一次大释放 ,是对前代文学传统的最佳继承 ,并为后世提供了典范。继承是根基 ,创新是生命 ,只有处理好二者的关系 ,才能创造出新的辉煌。这是新世纪学术界及文学家应当深思的问题。

Literature in the Tang Dynasty is so prosperous in the history of Chinese literature that the later generations find it hard to continue its glory. Literature in that period is a great emission of artistic experience accumulated hundreds of years, a perfect inheritance of the literary traditions from its forefathers, and a model for generations to come. Succession is foundation and creation is vitality. New glory will not come until relations between the two factors are well understood. This is what should be taken into consideration by writers in the new era.
