论王阳明合于“道”的文学观

WANG Yangming's Literary View of Coordinating With Confucianism

王阳明龙场悟道之后,对早年溺于词章之习有所反思,认为圣人之道朴素自然,后世儒者却从经书的文辞入手,穿凿附会,断章取义。王阳明以"道"为中心,提出一系列合于"道"的文学观。在文道关系上,王阳明主张文以载道,文道一体,重视文与道的内在联系和同一性。在文词写作上,王阳明一方面主张创作者立"中正平和"之心,祛除"功利心";另一方面,强调文章敦本尚实,返朴还淳。这种观点的提出既有其理论渊源,又有其历史背景。

After seeking the truth in Longchang（ Guizhou Province）,WANG Yangming reflected his addicted habits of learning rhetoric and chapters at his young age,and pointed out that sage＇s philosophy was simple in its nature,while the later Confucians stepped out of its literal meaning of the Confucian classics,drew far-fetched analogy,and had their statements sketched out of context. WANG Yangming proposed a set of literature views centered around Confucianism. As to the relations between the literature and Confucianism,WANG Yangming asserted that the writing should deliver ethics and integrate with essence,and attached importance to the inner link between literature and ideas as well as their homoousia. When coming to the words of writing,WANG Yangming claimed that the composers,on the one hand,should hold a ＂ restrained and moderate＂ mind and eradicate ＂ utilitarian concerns＂,and on the other hand,he emphasized that the article should be basic and practical and bind to simplicity and honesty,the view of whose not only came out of its theoretical origin,but also had its historical background.
