诗的意境寻求与意象创造——以《诗经·蒹葭》为例

The Search of Artistic Conception and the Creation of Imagery in Poems: Taking“Reed in the Book of Songs”as an Example

《蒹葭》是《诗经》中独具至美之境的诗篇。诗中以深秋蒹葭水阻的景境,创设了一个悬置在可望而不可即之境的"伊人"的意象性的形象。伊人有清冷如露的至美之美,对其却不着一个美字加以形容,尽由境象衬托和对她的倾慕与追求者之执着不懈来做象外之象的显现。为实现这种特有的意境中的意象创造,诗中措词婉转,节奏舒张徐缓,篇章结构匀称,境象情深惋怅,达到了情与境谐、象与意合的高妙境地。

'Reed in the Book of Songs'is a poem with unique beauty in the artistic conception. In the poem, the creation of 'she, the beauty', an image within sight but beyond reach, is set in the scene of a tough path with lush reeds in late autumn. She, the beauty, is the most beautiful, cool like dew. Not a single word of the decoration is used to make the description, but her beauty is fully shown by the circumstances and through the persistent pursuit of her adorers, thus a new image manifested. In order to realize the imagery creation in the special artistic conception, the words chosen in the poem are pleasant and pervasive;the rhythm is slow and relaxed;the text structure is symmetrical;the artistic conception and the imagery are deep and euphemistic. All these have achieved a high and ingenious level of art effects of harmony between emotion and environment, coexistence between images and meanings.
