王元翰诗文的休闲取向

The Leisure or the Lack of Leisure in Wang Yuanhan's Prose and Poetry

王元翰作为言官,仕途短暂却坎坷曲折,直言谏议,心忧黎民,在晚明奢靡之风中不知休闲为何物,也不会休闲享受,谏章严苛肃穆;作为文人,无论挂冠回滇或寓居他乡,寄情山水,精神内守,闲适雅趣透露忧虑;作为华宁民间名人,休闲时节,茶余饭后,王元翰奇异故事广传民间,极具休闲魅力。

Wang Yuanhan's career as an imperial censor was brief and full of twists and turns.His memorials and expostulations to the throne were harsh and solemn,full of outspoken criticism of the government and great concern for the common people.In the extravagance of late Qing,he knew no leisure and was not able to use leisure.As a man of letters,after resigning from the post,either living at his home town or traveling abroad,he abandoned himself to mountains and rivers in a reserved leisure that betrays worries and anxiety.As part of the leisure life of Huaning,charming legends about his singularity are still popular among the local people.
