立象尽意:中国传统诗学中“言”的淡化与遮蔽

The desalination and covering of “word" in classical Chinese poetics

哲学命题“立象尽意”被借用到诗学领域之后获得了崭新的内涵 ,即对“言外之意”的强调与追求 ;在韵味、兴趣、神韵和境界等学说的承传之中 ,这种强调与追求逐步被加强。然而 ,正是在这一发展历程中 ,诗歌语言自身的审美价值逐步被淡化 ,乃至最终被意象美与意境美的夺目光彩所遮蔽。认识传统诗学这一重意轻言的倾斜形态 ,对现代汉语诗学的建设具有重要意义。

As a proposition of philosophy, showing images for expounding meanings was used as a poetic proposition and obtained brand-new intension, which was to emphasize and seek meanings beyond words. From the lingering charm, interest, romantic charm to the realm, the aesthetic value of the words itself was neglected step by step and was completely covered by the aesthetic perception of the Images and the Artistic Conception. It is very important in building the Modern Chinese Poetics which shows the tendency of paying attention to meanings but looking down on words.
