再论裘廷梁的“崇白话而废文言”说

Re-Study on Qiou Tingliang's Theory of Using Vernacular instead of Classical Chinese

近代维新派文论家裘廷梁 ,在“文界革命”中率先提出“崇白话而废文言”口号 ,配合黄遵宪、梁启超等人主张近代文学话语转型的倡导 ,对中国近代文学话语的文化转型 ,起到了积极的促进作用。他的“崇白话而废文言”说 ,有充分的历史依据和现实理由 ,为近代白话文理论奠定了基础 ,为近代文艺美学初定了文学语言的审美取向———以通俗简易为美。这是近代文学的语言学美学研究最突出的成就之一。

The literary critic of the modern reform was the first one to advocate using vernacular instead of classical Chinese in response to the ideas of Huang Zunxian and Liang Qichao about the reform of the language in modern literature, and he played an active part in the reform in the language of modern Chinese literature. His 'using vernacular instead of classical Chinese' has its historical and realistic basis, lays the foundation for the theory of modern Chinese language, and decdes the aesthetical orientation of the literary language for modern aesthetics of literature and arts. That is beauty lies in simplicity and popularity. It is one of the most prominent achievements in the study of aesthetics of linguistics of modern literature.
