论叶燮与清代中期的诗学转向

Ye Xie and the Poetic Turn in the Mid-Qing Dynasty

清初杰出的诗人和理论家叶夑,针对诗坛脱离实际、诗中无我、模拟抄袭、唐宋纷争等流弊,梳理数千年诗歌史,并以《原诗》为核心,建立了严密的诗学理论体系,以其远见卓识,促成了清代中期诗学由神韵转向性灵,由复古转向创新,由唐宋纷争转向融通唐宋,并最终促成了清诗自身面目的形成。

Ye Xie, an outstanding poet and theorist in the early Qing Dynasty, combed the history of poetry for thousands of years in view of the defects of the poetry world, such as divorce from reality, selflessness in poetry, simulated suppression and disputes between Tang and Song Dynasties. With The Original Poem as the core, he established a rigorous theoretical system of poetry. With his foresight and wisdom, he promoted the transformation of poetry in the middle Qing Dynasty from charm to spirit, from Retro to innovation, and from disputes between Tang and Song Dynasties to integration of Tang and Song Dynasties, and ultimately contributed to the formation of the Qing poetry’s own face.
