思·神思·才思——中国古代“才思”论的演生及意蕴

A Research into the Theory of Literary Creativeness

"才思"论的形成建立在思维特征认知深化的基础之上。而文艺创作实践的拓展与反思则成为其理论成熟的关键。魏晋之际,文人逞才炫学、较量优劣成为一时风尚,对思有敏迟的才性认知由此成为批评界关注的重点话题。对创作苦累现象的反思及崇尚文才锋颖的潮流,从不同维度促使理论界向文思畅达的路径与状态聚焦。"耽思"论在这样的背景下诞生,而刘勰系统研讨神思,则意味着"才思"论的完整确立。"才思"论的核心意蕴即在于才生文思。

The formation of the theory of literary creativeness is based on the deepening cog-nition of human thinking features.The maturity of the theory depends on the development of and people's reflection on literary practice.The fashion in the Wei and Jin Dynasties was that literati showed off their talents and learning and competed for excellence,bringing about the issue of difference in human thinking patterns for contemporary literary critics.Both reflec-tions on the wearing hardship in literary creation and the trend worshiping literary talents contributed from different angles to the focalization of the critics to the route to and state of fluent literary thinking.Under such circumstances,the theory of^engross oneself in think-ing”was put forward,but it was Liu Xie(刘織)who established the theory of literary ere-ativeness by his systematic discussion of“state of mind”(神思Shen Si).The core of the theory of literary creativeness rests with the idea that an author's literary creativeness re-sults from his talents.
