李白七律“不工”之探析

An Exploratory Analysis of “Insufficient Exquisiteness”of Li Bai's Seven-character Verse

李白现存七律只有8首,另有两首七言小律。前人多认为李白七律不工,存在拗句和失粘现象。究其因,盖当时七律尚未完全成熟,李白在创作上既追求"兴寄",又张扬个性,故作品数量虽少,仍有助于七律提升格调、扩展内容和深化内涵。

Only 8 regular seven- character poems written by Li Bai are well preserved up till now,plus other 2 minor regular seven-character poems. Former scholars tended to take Li Bai＇s regular seven-character verse as not exquisite enough,filled with ill-tuned and non-coherent lines. The reason was that the regular seven-character verse was not sophisticated in those days. Moreover,Li Bai pursued mainly to express his intention by association and highlight his personality in his poem writing. As a result,although only a few works were handed down,still they helped to raise the style,expand the content and deepen the connotation of seven-character verse.
