论朱熹灾害诗中的荒政思想

On the Thought of Disaster Relief in Zhu Xi’s Poems

虽然朱熹并不以诗为重,但其诗歌创作成就斐然,生前便以诗名世,在朱熹诗歌中,灾害诗具有独特的意义与价值。朱熹灾害诗创作对于南宋时期的水灾、旱灾、蝗灾、饥荒等灾害有着广泛的书写,深刻反映了南宋衰弊世道下灾祸连连的生存空间,再现了南宋时期底层民众的生存困境。朱熹灾害诗中包含着其独特的荒政思想,视民如伤、赈惩并施、以民为本并用,且往往坚持爱民利民的立场,与当时官场作风形成鲜明对比。朱熹灾害诗中的荒政思想是与其理学家身份紧密联系的,对朱熹灾害诗的解读既可了解荒政思想的深厚内涵,亦可一窥其理学家身份之外丰富饱满的士人形象。

Although Zhu Xi was more recognized as a neo-Confucianist than a poet,his poetic achievements were remarkable.The theme of disaster has unique significance and value in his works,which include the flood,drought,locust and famine.The poems reflect the life of the grass roots living in destitution and calamities in the Southern Song Dynasty.The thought of disaster relief consists of empathy with the sufferers,the alleviation of the refugees’misery,punishment for the misdeeds,deep concern for the welfare of victims,which is contrary to the corrupt bureaucracy at that time.These thoughts are closely related to his identity as a neo-Confucianist,the research on which can help us have a deeper understanding of the connotations of the thought,and a vivid image of the scholar.
