明初苏伯衡《空同子·瞽说》发覆

A Review of Su Boheng’s Kong Tongzi Gu Shuo in the Early Ming Dynasty

明初苏伯衡《空同子》与刘基《郁离子》、宋濂《龙门子凝道记》《燕书》并称于时,同为元明之际浙东子书的翘楚,都具秦汉之风。不仅为明代子书开启新端,而且奏起明代前后七子复古派"文必秦汉"的先声。基于此,对后世几乏问津的苏伯衡《空同子》28首发微探幽,还其本相,可补遗珠之憾。

The early Ming Dynasty saw the popularity of Su Bongheng’s Kong Tongzi and Liu Ji’s Yu lizi,Song Lian’s long Menzi and Yan Shu.They,featured with styles of the Qin and Han Dynasties,were all masterpieces of eastern Zhejiang"Zi Shu"or scholarly works in the Yuan and Ming Dynasties.They not only ushered in a new era for"Zi Shu"in the Ming Dynasty,but also initiated the trend to follow the literary styles of the Qin and Han Dynasties advocated by the retro school around the Ming Dynasty.An exploration of the 28 articles in Su Boheng’s Kong Tong Zi may therefore resume its original features,and make up for what we have lost.
