张耒诗歌三问

Three Questions about Zhang Lei's Poetry

对于北宋诗人张耒,学界向有三种评价:其诗歌成就以乐府诗为主,其诗歌艺术有粗疏草率之弊,其诗名较盛是由于卒年较晚。本文针上述观点提出新见:张耒诗题材广阔,内容丰富,在描写自然景物及日常生活方面尤其成就卓著,乐府诗仅是张诗中特别引人注目的一类主题。张耒作诗以平易简洁为追求目标,这对张耒诗歌产生两方面的影响:有时过度,就产生粗疏草率的缺点;有时恰到好处,就形成平易晓畅的优点。张耒在当时就被称为苏门翘楚,实因其诗风近于苏轼,诗歌成就则与黄庭坚、陈师道相近,其诗名与其卒年较晚无关。

On the Northern Song poet Zhang Lei, there are three comments： his main poetry achievement is in folk song writing; there is a disadvantage of carelessness in his poetic skill ; his poetry reputation emerges from his later death. This article makes new suggestions： Zhang Lei＇ poetry writing has a wide range of subjects and substantial content, he gets special success in portraiting natural sights and everyday life, the folk song writing is only a spectacular kind of subject. Zhang Lei seeks a terse and easy style ,that exerts two influences on his poetry： sometimes creates the disadvantage of carelessness, and sometimes shapes the advantage of terseness and smoothness. Zhang Lei was praised as a representative figure of Su Shi School in those years, the reason is that his poetic style is similar to Su, and his achievement is close to Huang Tingjian and Chert Shidao, so Zhang＇s poetry reputation has nothing to do with his later death.
