“销金锅”入诗考及成因分析

The Textual Research on“Pin Gold Pot”Used in Poetry and Its Cause Analysis

“销金锅”是元代兴起的一个著名诗歌意象,初专指杭州西湖文化消费的极度奢侈,后泛指挥金如土的城市奢侈消费。该意象元时入诗,明清时被诗话广泛讨论。关于“销金锅”入诗的时间,一般认为始于元中晚期熊进德的《西湖竹枝词》,但据笔者考证应始于元初南宋遗民诗人汪元量的《西湖旧梦十首》。“销金锅”意象之所以会在元初入诗,究其原因与南宋灭亡在深层文化心理上的刺激有关,是元初南宋遗民诗人为反思南宋历史和社会文化侈靡而有意选择的结果。

The“pin gold pot”is a well-noted poetic image arisen in the Yuan Dynasty.Originally it,in particular,refers to the extreme extravagantness of the West Lake culture consumption in Hangzhou and later it generally refers to the urban luxury consumption of spending money like water.The image was used in poetry in the Yuan Dynasty and widely discussed as notes on poets and poetry in the Ming and Qing dynasties.As for the time when“pin gold pot”was used in poetry,scholars generally argue that it began from Xiong Jinde’s Ancient Folk Songs with Love as Their Main Theme of West Lake in the middle and late periods of the Yuan Dynasty.But according to our textual research,we argue that it began with the adherent poet of the Southern Song Dynasty Wang Yuanliang’s The Ten Poems of West Lake Old Dream in the early period of the Yuan Dynasty.The reason why the image of“pin gold pot”was used in poetry in the early Yuan Dynasty is that it has something to do with the deep cultural psychological stimulation after the destruction of the Southern Song Dynasty.Obviously,the“pin gold pot”used in poetry is the result that the adherent poets of the Southern Song Dynasty in the early Yuan Dynasty chose on purpose for their reflection of the Southern Song Dynasty’s history and the cultural luxury of the society.
