白头宫女在 闲坐说玄宗——论中晚唐诗歌对“玄宗记忆”的重构

The White-headed Palace Made Sitting,Talking about Xuanzong——On the Reconstruction of“Reminiscing Xuanzong”in the Poetry of the Middle and Late Tang Dynasty

追忆玄宗是中晚唐诗人反复书写的主题。玄宗作为一个典型的“盛世符号”,勾连着诗人们心中特殊的历史情愫和集体记忆,中晚唐不同时期的玄宗文学形象,也很大程度上反映了当时的历史观和文士的普遍心态。时空的错乱与转移是中晚唐“追忆玄宗”诗歌中的惯常现象,此外,中晚唐诗人还钟爱以“老者追忆”的视角和代“弃妇”立言的方式来重构“玄宗记忆”,这三点杂糅相融,成为他们书写盛唐历史记忆的典型模式。原因在于中晚唐诗人对盛世的眷念与对现实的无力,他们试图通过打造一个更高级的时空、用一种更艺术的方式来实现他们对盛唐的想象。

Reminiscing Xuanzong is a theme repeatedly written by poets in the middle and late Tang dynasties.Xuanzong,as a typical“symbol of prosperity”,is tightly linked with the special historical sentiment and collective memory among poets.The literary images of Xuanzong in different periods of the middle and late Tang also reflected to a large extent the historical outlook and the general mentality of literati.The confusion and transfer of time and space is a common phenomenon in the poetry of“Reminiscing Xuanzong”in the middle and late Tang Dynasty.In addition,poets in the middle and late Tang Dynasty also love to reminisce Xuanzong from the perspective of“an old man’s memory”and the way of making words on behalf of the“abandoned wife”,the blending of which became their typical mode of writing the historical memory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty.The poets’nostalgia for the prosperous age and the inability of reality lead to their trying to create a more advanced time and space,a more artistic way to realize their imagination of the prosperous Tang.
