由余事到主导:建安文人立言价值观的演进历程

From Salon to Stage: the Course of Evolution of the Scholars in the Reign Title of Jian'an's Values of Establishing One's Ideas in Writing

建安是"人的觉醒"时期,为此立德、立功成为建安文人价值追求的主导,立言仅为建安文人的余事。但由于建安文人普遍都存在着一种"志不果"、"道不行"的缺憾与苦闷,故立言成为他们补救现实缺失的途径。经过他们的创作实践,立言终于在其价值观中由余事走上主导,杨修的《答临淄侯笺》与曹丕的《典论·论文》则标志着这一转变的完成。

The Reign Title of Jian'an was a historical phase of 'human awakening'. Scholars in those days pinned their guidelines in pursuit of values on expounding their ideas of moral for and making contribution to this final objective. Hence establishing their ideas in writing only by leisurely remarks. However, because these scholars generally nursed a regret and depression of 'frustrated aspiration' and 'failing ideal', they chose to make up for the realistic deficiencies by establishing their ideas in writing. Through their practice of writing, they managed to convert their established ideas in writing in values from salon to stage, which was marked by Yang Xiu's 'The Reply to Duke of Linzi' and Cao Pi's 'On Books and Records·On Writing'.
