中印诗学“味”、“韵”理论刍议

Preliminary Research on Theories of 味/Rasa and 韵/Dhvani in Chinese and Indian Poetics

中印古典诗学理论都涉及到"味"、"韵"的概念,而在不同的历史文化演进过程中,其内涵与外延既有交叉重叠的部分,更有不相涵盖者。文章将其置于中印历史文化大背景下比较研究,厘清其异同,重新认识和理解"味"、"韵"概念在中印诗学体系中的特点、价值和意义,拓展中印古典诗学理论的研究视野。

Rasa and Dhvani are both important concepts of Indian classical poetics, which can also be properlycorresponding to Wei 味 and Yun 韵 of ancient Chinese poetics. On account of a wide gap between two kinds ofcultures, the theories of Rasa and Dhvani and those of Wei 味 and Yu 韵 are sharing something in common insome aspects, and appearing utterly different in others. This article is trying to make clear these similarities anddifferences, and studies them under the background of Chinese and Indian histories and cultures, which is ex-pected not only to refresh our understanding of the characters, values and significance of 味/Rasa and 韵/Dhvaniin their distinct contexts, but also to help us find a new way of further study on Chinese and Indian classical poet-ics.
