黄省曾文学复古观诠论——以其与王阳明、李梦阳的思想交涉为中心

Huang Xingzeng's Literary Restoration——In Comparison with Thoughts ofWang Yangming and Li Mengyang

明代中叶,文坛风会流衍变迁,以复古求新变成为此期文学发展的内在动力。吴中文人黄省曾,博学好古,以古文辞名世。他拜师问道于王阳明,千里论文于李梦阳,并旗帜鲜明地提出“不复古文,安复古道”,将恢复儒家道统视为此期古文复兴的内涵与旨归。其最终确立的文章性道说,是阳明心学与复古文学相融通的一次有益的理论实践,也是对传统的“文以载道”观的重新判释与运用,对明代文学史有着独特而重要的意义。

In the Mid-Ming Dynasty,making new changes by restoring ancient practices became the intrinsic motivation of literary development.Huang Xingzeng,a literati in Wuzhong,was knowledgeable and immersed in ancient learning,and was famous for his ancient prose writings.He ever learned from philosopher Wang Yangming and discussed with Li Mengyang.To restore the Confucian orthodoxy,he argued that to restore ancient Chinese prose was a prerequisite.What he proposed was in effect a theoretical practice integrating Wang Yangming's theory and the literary revival theory,and a re-interpretation of the traditional Taoist concept of writing.His thoughts made a big literary difference in the Ming Dynasty.
