白居易“中隐”思想探析

“Sihao”and Bai Juyi's Ideology of “Mid-hermit”

东宫属官在唐代后期多为闲官,唐代后期东都洛阳政治地位下降,其行政机构谓之分司,分司中太子宾客等职位多用于安置罢黜、远黜、量移及疏退的官员。白居易有十多年任职东宫属官的经历,他以太子宾客分司东都时创作的一批著名诗作体现了他出处思想的变化,促使了他"中隐"思想的形成。由于唐代太子宾客一职的设置与"商山四皓"有关,所以他经常用四皓的典故来形容自己在东都时期的"中隐"生活。

In the late Tang Dynasty, the Eastern Palace officials were more leisure officials. With thepolitical decline of Luoyang as a capital city, its executive branch was regarded as subordinate and its postswent to officials who had been dismissed or who were indifferent to fame. Bai Juyi's thirteen years experienceas leisure officials in the Eastern Palace fostered his ideology of"mid-hermit"and he always compared thisperiod in his life to that of "Sihao".
