蔡襄的文学主张及其诗歌创作

摘要

Cai Xiang,a famous politician in the North Song Dynasty,was an outstanding poet,essayist,calligrapher.From Cai Xiang’s propositions on ＂literature is based on truth＂,＂momentum is the mainstream of writing＂,we can see Cai Xiang’s poetic theory was mainly affected by Han Yu.His ancient poetry is greatly different from the ＂modern style＂ poetry [referring to the innovations in classical poetry during the Tang Dynasty（618-907）,marked by strict tonal patterns and rhyming schemes].The ancient poetry mainly has the characteristics of ＂prose-styled poems＂,＂comment-styled poems＂,while the modern poetry has such characteristics as pure and fresh language,peaceful mood,vigorous temperament.%蔡襄不仅是北宋一代名臣,而且还是杰出的诗人、散文家和著名的书法家。从蔡襄＂文以道为本＂、＂文以气为主＂的主张可以看出他的诗歌思想主要受韩愈的影响。其诗歌创作古体诗与近体诗差别较大,古体诗表现为以议论为诗、以文为诗等特征;近体诗表现为用语清新、意境清幽、气质清刚等特征。
