鲁迅论《文心雕龙》

On Lu Xun's Views on Wen Xin Diao Long

迅在《摩罗诗力说》中尖锐批评过刘勰因笃守儒家“诗教”而形成的保守的封建功利主义的文学思想 :在《汉文学史纲要》中尖锐地批评过刘勰神秘主义的文学起源论 ;在《吃教》一文中分析过刘勰“杂拌儿”式的思想体系。但是鲁迅仍然充分肯定了《文心雕龙》的重大贡献 :“解析神质 ,包举洪纤 ,开源发流 ,为世楷则” ,并在若干具体问题上进一步发挥了刘勰的精彩论述。

Lu Xun once in Forces of Mara's Literature incisively criticized Liu Hsieh's conservative, feudal and utilitarian literary thoughts which have stemmed from his rigid adherence to the Confucianists' viewpoint about functions of literature. He also sharply criticized Liu Hsieh's literature origin theory of mysticism in The Essentials of Literary History for Han Dynasty; while in his article Exploiting Religion (Chi Jiao) , he analyzed Liu Hsieh's hotchpotch —— like ideological system. Yet Lu Xun regarded as positive to the full the significant contributions of Wen Xin Diao Long. He thought Liu Hsieh had probed into the substance of literature and had extensive discussion on literature as well, which had epoch\|making significance and could be viewed as paragon for later periods. At the same time, Lu Xun further developed Liu Hsieh's brilliant exposition on some certain specific issues.
