论李绅《古风》二首的接受与阐释

Acceptance and Interpretation of the Two Ancient Poems Gu Feng by Lishen

李绅的《古风》二首由于得到吕温的激赏而闻名,始传诵于民间。晚唐五代时期逐渐为文人所接受,并在两宋得到文人的普遍肯定与大力宣扬,奠定了其在唐诗中的地位。至明代,完成了其经典化过程,由民间走向了庙堂。能够成为经典,根本原因是因为其体现了以农为本的思想。李绅基于对中唐农事的了解,提醒统治者要"先知稼穑之艰难",轻徭薄赋、重农恤民。

Lishen＇s two ancient poems Gu Feng（《古风》） were famous for they were greatly admired by Li Wen,and it began to be widely read among the people.During the late Tang dynasty and the Five dynasties,they were gradually accepted by literati and generally affirmed and vigorously promoted by scholars in the two Song dynasties,which established its status in Tang poetry.In the Ming dynasty,Gu Feng was finally circulated from the folk to the imperial court.It can be a classic for the basic reason that it embodies the basic thougth——the argriculture-oriented thought.Based on his understanding of the actuality of rural areas and peasants in the middle Tang dynasty,Li Shen reflected the reality in his works and at the same time,he also reminded the rulers to know＂the difficulty of sowing and reaping＂,reduce the burden of taxation and cost,attach great importance to agriculture and show solicitude for the people.
