Carrying the Wine under Dongli with Quiet Fragrance in an Immortal Way——Discussion on Lu xiuzhen and her YinHongGuanYiShi(《吟荭馆遗诗》)

路秀贞是晚清时期贵州毕节路氏家族中有名的女性诗人。她生于贵州,长于河南,卒于北京。一生虽然短暂,但创作颇丰。其诗歌散佚过半,存稿被其子编纂成《吟荭馆遗诗》。路秀贞的诗歌内容丰富,主要涉及四季物候、乡村田园、闺阁庭院和羁旅游历等。其艺术特征鲜明,主要表现在善于用典,融经为文;风格恬淡,意境清幽;情感真挚,意趣高远;诗中有画,含蓄隽永。路秀贞的诗歌以身边常见事物为描写对象,虽然没有大悲大欢,没有宏大主题,但往往能于平淡中见深刻意蕴。其身在庭院,但情志却超越闺襜。淡薄名利,心系天下,于清幽中透露出一股豪越气概。这是晚清女性文学中富有个性特征的代表。
