象征主义诗论与“象外之象”论

Symbolism Poetic Theory And The Theory of “Xiang Wai Zhi Xiang”

中国古典诗论里的"象外之象"说和现代的象征主义诗论都是关于诗歌借助意象来表达情思的理论,故而存在一定程度的相似性,即都注重诗歌的暗示性、朦胧性、抽象性以及因此形成的超越性。另一方面,虽然两者都致力于对诗歌艺术审美潜能的挖掘,但其艺术追求方式和产生的审美效应是有区别的。从中国诗论史看,古典诗论与现代诗论之间存在断裂现象,却已呈现出贯通的趋势。

On one hand, the theory of 'Xiang Wai Zhi Xiang' in the classical chinese poetry theory and the modern symbolism poetic theory are about the theories of expressing feelings through the images, so there is a certain degree of similarities, they both pay attention to the hint, obscurity, abstraction of the poetry and the resulting transcendence. On the other hand, although both of them are devoted to exploring the aesthetic potential of poetry art, their artistic pursuit mode and aesthetic effect are different. From the perspective of the history of Chinese poetic theory, there is a rift between classical and modern poetics, but it has shown a trend of continuity.
