“一厂二鳥”:易大厂與陳運彰、吕貞白交游考

A Study of Yi Da'an's Social Interactions with Chen Yunzhang and Lu Zhenbai

“十大狂人”之陳運彰(1905-1955)、吕貞白(1907-1984)是易大厂(1874-1941)晚年(60歲至68歲)密友,“二鳥”因傾慕易大厂學識而與其成爲摯友、忘年交,“一厂二鳥”交游涉及詩詞唱酬、翰墨、金石、藝術品代理銷售等方面,除了詩詞唱和之外,“二鳥”爲易大厂詩詞集謄録、校勘、出版,易大厂則爲“二鳥”各創作印章二百餘方,書畫作品更是難以統計。抗戰之後,易大厂經濟困頓,“二鳥”爲易大厂代理藝術品以解其困。易大厂仙逝之後,“二鳥”亦是安排易大厂後事的主要力量。“一厂二鳥”交游從另一側面反映出在抗戰爆發前後,上海文人生存機制從繁榮穩定到崩壞離亂場域下的生存狀態與無奈。

Chen Yunzhang(1905-1955)and Lu Zhenbai(1907-1984)became close friends with Yi Da'an(1874-1941)when Yi was already 60 years old.They befriended him despite the difference in age because of their shared admiration for his knowledge.The social activities among the three involved poetic creation,painting,calligraphy and inscriptions on ancient bronzes and stone tablets,as well as sales of artworks.In addition to writing poetry,Chen Yunzhang and Li Zhenbai also participated in the transcription,collation and publication of Yi Da'an's poetry.Yi Da'an created over 200 seals each for Chen Yunzhang and Lu Zhenbai,and even more calligraphic works and paintings.After the end of the War of Resistance against Japan,Yi Da'an faced economic difficulties.Chen Yunzhang and Lu Zhenbai acted as Yi Da'an's agents for the sale of his artworks,thus alleviating his living difficulties.After the death of Yi Da'an,Chen Yunzhang and Li Zhenbai were also the main forces in arranging Yi Da'an's funeral.The interactions between the three reflect the conditions of survival and the helplessness of the Shanghai literati,who moved from prosperity and stability into collapse and chaos around the outbreak of the War of Resistance against Japan.
