论威廉·布莱克《天真与经验之歌》与《神曲》的诗画融合

The Fusion of William Blake’s Poetry and Paintings in the Songs of Innocence and of Experience and the Drawings of Divine Comedy

布莱克的诗画艺术演绎了一种率真质朴的风格,呈现出自然写真的诗意与画境,纯美的想象融合视觉创造因素在其中发挥了独到作用。其画境中的色彩基调是再现诗意的视觉表征,色彩镜像由表及里地映射出诗歌的主题、思想、意境、隐喻及象征内涵。他的诗歌富有伦理教化作用,充满对善与恶的审度,追求心灵升华,表达他对世界大同的愿景。从《天真与经验之歌》到《神曲》,体现出返璞归真、爱憎分明、向往美好的创作主旨并成为布莱克创作思想的一条主线,前者由诗歌艺术趋向绘画艺术,后者由绘画艺术回归诗歌艺术。布莱克的创作之途可谓"诗心入画",将视觉审美意象融会贯通,实现了诗歌艺术与绘画艺术的交融。
