论江淹对左思《咏史》的模拟与接受

On Jiang Yan's Imitation and Acceptance of Zuo Si's Poems on History

学者对江淹《杂体诗三十首》的总体评价历来较高,但是对其中模拟左思《咏史》八首的《左记室思咏史》评价较低。在前贤研究的基础上,江淹拟诗还可以从文本细读、互文性与接受史的视角来进行重新解读,从而考察其与左思《咏史》八首之间的异同点,探讨江淹在表达方式、主题、思想等方面对左思诗歌精神内核的把握。另外,对拟诗与原作的互文性分析还可用以阐释江淹拟诗所涉六朝咏史诗之间的关系,进而揭示该诗对左思《咏史》流传所产生的重要意义,为江淹拟诗的研究提供新的视角和思考维度。

Historically,scholars have generally held Jiang Yan's(江淹)Thirty Miscellaneous-style Poems(《杂体诗三十首》)in high regard,but they have been less in favor of his Zuo Si'sPoems on History(《左记室思咏史》),an imitation of Zuo Si's(左思)Eight Sections of Poems on History(《咏史》八首).On the basis of the study of his former sages,we can reinterpret this imitated poem written by Jiang Yan from the perspectives of the intensive reading of its text,the intertextuality and the history of its acceptance,so as to examine the similarities and dissimilarities between Jiang Yan's imitated poem and Zuo Si's Eight Sections of Poems on History.By doing so,this article challenges the previous argument that Jiang's imitated poem was inferior to Zuo's original poems in writing skill.Instead,this article holds that Jiang's imitation grasped the spiritual core of Zuo's poems in terms of way of expression,subject,and idea.Additionally,the intertextual analysis of Jiang's imitated poems and the original poems he imitated can elucidate the relationship between Jiang Yan's imitated poems and their concerned poems on history from the Six Dynasties(六朝).This further highlights the significance of Jiang's imitated poems in the circulation and acceptance of Zuo's Poems on History.As a result,this article offers a fresh perspective and thinking dimension for the study of Jiang's imitated poems.
