宋代歌妓与宋词之创作及传播

The Geisha of Song Dynasty and Their Roles in the Creation and Spread of Ci

宋代歌妓根据其妓籍和服务对象的不同，大致可分为官妓、家妓和市井妓三大类。歌 妓最主要的职责就是在宋人社交、娱乐活动中唱词侑酒。歌妓唱词与文人填词共同构成了词 文学的原生状态。在此过程中，歌妓向文人提供新声，乞要新词，并以自身的特质参与建构 了宋词的审美特征。

:Based on location and object they serve , the Geisha in the Song Dyna sty can be classified into three kinds, namely, the girls supported and fed by f amily, ones supported by an official, and ones performing for anyone at a brothe l. The main service of the girls is to sing Ci, the poetry unique to Song Dynas ty, and urge drinking by their patrons in the recreational parties. Such poetry composed by Song poets and sung by their contemporary Geisha turns out to be the origin of Ci development. The girls supply new rhyme patterns to the poets and at the same time demand more forms of Ci. These combined with the personalities of the girls themselves merge into the aesthetic features of Ci .
