从王、梅之比较看王禹偁在“宋调”形成中的重要地位

A Study on WANG Yu-cheng’s Role in the Formation of"the Characteristics of Song Dynasty Poetry"Based on a Comparison of WANG Yu-cheng and MEI Yao-chen

王禹偁不仅是宋初“白体”诗人的代表,而且也是宋诗的开启者和先行者之一,在宋调的形成中占有不可忽视的地位。与梅尧臣一样,他们都不满晚唐五代以来浮艳颓靡的文风,提出了具有复古倾向的诗歌创新主张,其诗作具有朴实平易、喜欢议论和才学化等鲜明的“宋调”特色。只是因为王诗存在着一些不足,加之诗歌自身发展演变的规律和时代环境限制,王诗的影响才不得充分彰显,但王诗对宋调形成作出的实际贡献却是不能忽略的。

WANG Yu-cheng’s position can’t be neglected in the formation of"the characteristics of Song Dynasty poetry",because he was not only a representative poet of"the style of BAI Ju-yi’s poems",but also one of the pioneers and forerunners of Song Dynasty poetry.Like MEI Yao-chen,WANG Yu-cheng was also not satisfied with the flashy style and decadence-filled poems produced since the late Tang Dynasty and the Five Dynasties and so put forward innovative ideas of retro-styled poetry.WANG Yu-cheng’s poems were plain,commentary,brilliant and with distinct characteristics of the poetry of the Song Dynasty.However,the influence of WANG Yu-cheng’s poems has not been totally manifested because of some inherent defects,plus the natural developing rules of the poetry self and restrictions of the era.But WANG Yu-cheng’s contribution to the formation of"the characteristics of Song dynasty poetry"cannot be neglected.
