《郭公敏行录》与元代中期文人的理想形象

On The Records of Guo’s Kind Deeds and Ideal Image of Literati in Yuan Dynasty

《郭公敏行录》收录了郭郁任职江西、浙江、江苏、福建等地时举行的十余次同题集咏作品。这些诗文歌颂他的德政,包括便利百姓、兴学重教、平反冤狱等内容,同时赞美郭郁的人格修养及其家族父慈子孝。作品反映出在元代中期儒学回潮的背景下,南方中下层文人普遍认可儒家“修齐治平”的理想。

The Records of Guo's Kind Deeds included more than ten works of same topic done by many people at some parties that GuoYu held during his tenure in Jiangxi,Zhejiang,Jiangsu,Fujian and other places.These poems not only eulogized his benevolent rules,including facilitating common people,subsidizing and attaching great importance to education,rehabilitating the miscarriages of justice and so on,but also praised his personality cultivation and the good family tradition that the father is affectionate and the son is filial.These works reflected the ideal of"cultivating oneself,puting family in order,governing the state,and pacifying the world"of Confucianism that lower-middle literati of Southern China generally accepted under the background of the revival of Confucianism in the middle of Yuan dynasty.
