钱谦益文学观转变及其批评的意义

The Transition of Qian Qianyi’s Literature Conception and Belletristic Criticism and its Significance

“四十之变”是钱谦益文学思想和创作生涯的重大转折，自此其文学批评具有了明显的时代意识。他以内心所积淀的朝代变易感认识近、当代文学史，通过对文坛“劫持者”的诘难以改变当时“学古而赝”、“师心而妄”的不良学风和文风，虽然其态度也相当偏激，但在明清转关之际，却有一洗近代窠臼、开启清诗风气之功。

Change at forty' was a great turning point of Qian Qianyi in his literary conception and his writing career After forty, Qian had a change in his belletristic criticism that reflected the track of his time. With his understanding of the changes of the Ming Dynasty and the early Qing literature, Qian sharply criticized the 'bullies'of the literature field and tried to change the prevailing practice of 'learning chiefly from the ancient' and 'writing from inner spirit'. Despite his extreme views, he helped to change the unhealthy old literary style of his time and contributed to the appearance of the fresh poetic style of the Qing Dynasty.
