口号:古典诗歌的另类表达形态

Slogan: Another Pattern of Classical Poetic Expression

口号是古代一类独特的诗歌体式,从宋代开始历代不乏研究者对其源起、内涵、体性特征等方面予以探讨,但众说纷纭,莫衷一是。包括唐代伶人口号、宋代乐语口号、即兴口占的口号诗、顺口溜在内的四类口号具有比较一致的体性特征:首先,具有鲜明的传播特性,与古代题诗有相通之处;其次,具有不避俚俗、游戏娱乐的艺术特征,与伶人乐工参与创作表演有关;最后,具有继承风教传统、与古代谣谚相似的艺术精神。

Slogan was a unique poetic form and style. Scholars studied it from its origins, its contents ana its characteristics from Song Dynasty, but they hadn＇ t reached unanimity of opinion. Slogan included the type written by old actors in Tang Dynasty, the type of YueYu in Song Dynasty, the type of extempore verse by literati, the type of doggerel, which have identical form characteristics. Firstly, they were of dissemination and consistent with poem inscriptions on the wall. Secondly, they were easy to understand and recreational, which had something to do with the old actors who were involved in composing and performing slogans. Thirdly, they inherited the ancient tradition of enlightenment by education, which is similar to ancient folk songs and proverbs.
