云南明代文学理论述要

On the Essence of the Literary Theories of Yunnan Province in Ming Dynasty

云南文学理论产生和形成于明代,从中可见对中国传统文论的继承、发扬和创新,对当时全国重要文学流派观点的呼应和批评。云南明代尚无文论专著问世而以诗文为主要论体,以诗文为批评对象,具有代表性者是明代前期的兰茂,明代中期的杨一清、杨士云、张含、王廷表、李元阳,明末至南明的担当、陈佐才。理论内容涉及作家作品论、诗文流变论、诗文艺术论。云南明代文论有其成就也有其不足,但无疑为清代文论的发展奠定了基础。

With the rising of the Chinese literary creation in Yunnan province during Ming Dynasty, the literary theory developed with inheritance, development and creation of Chinese traditional culture, echoing to the contemporary literature genres. Due to few novels and operas in Ming dynasty, the literatures and literary criticisms are mainly focused on poems. The representative writers are Lan Mao in the early period of Ming dynasty, Yang Yiqing, Yang Shiyun, Zhang Han, Wang Tingbiao and Li Yuanyang in the middle period of Ming dynasty and Dang Dan and Zuoeai Chen in the end of Ming dynasty. The criticism involves authors, poems and art. Both achievements and disadvantages are found in the local literary criticism in Ming dynasty, which is the foundation for the development of the literary criticism in Qing dynasty.
