布瓦洛形象论争之考辨

Exploring the Debate on Boileau's Image

布瓦洛作为“古典主义奠基者”的形象是中西方的共识,不同时代的社会意识由此建构了不同的布瓦洛形象。在法国,布瓦洛被公认为“最受争议的17世纪法国作家”,其个性、人品、气质等形象特征一直备受争议。在国内,布瓦洛作为社会现实中的个体形象的具体性和真实性尚未得到足够的关注,对布瓦洛的形象认知仍存在误读和偏见。为了厘清和合理评价其形象特征,有必要对布瓦洛的形象论争进行考证。通过文本分析与史实佐证的结合,在质疑、比对、考辨与思考中我们发现,布瓦洛真实、勇敢和担当的形象特征最为显著。他是一个追求自由的真实的诗人,一个敢于同诗坛的不正之风和不良的文艺趣味抗争的斗士,一个对文学真正有所担当的作家。
