魏晋的鹦鹉赋与当时文士的英才情结

The Fu on Parrot and the Scholars' Genius Complex in the Wei and Jin Dynasties

自汉末祢衡为《鹦鹉赋》 ,魏晋时期继作者十余人。细加分析 ,此种现象的发生 ,固有模拟习练、较技竞才的成分 ,更重要的原因则在于 :当时文士因鹦鹉的聪慧 ,而以之为英才的象征。魏晋乃崇尚英雄的时代 ,文士更往往以英才自居 ,遂形成借鹦鹉以抒写其英才情结的风气。

Since the appearance of the Fu on Parrot by Mi Heng at the end of the Han Dynasty, there were nearly a dozen of followers in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. By analyzing it in more detail, it is found that the reason inherent in this phenomenon is that these scholars vie with each other in imitating, composing ”Fu” and in showing off their skills and talents. However, the more important fact is that the scholars regard parrot as a symbol of genius because of its intelligence. The period of the Wei and Jin Dynasties is an age when people worship heroes and more often than not scholars claim to be geniuses. Thus it gradually becomes a common practice that they show their genius complex by imitating parrot.
