论玄言诗产生的文学原因

玄言诗作为一种诗歌类型 ,其产生和发展必有来自文学系统自身的原因。这主要表现在三个方面 :受玄学言意之辩的影响 ,魏晋文学理论认为文学应把表现某种形而上的义理当作义务 ,这就给诗歌谈玄说理提供了理论基础 ;先秦以来的诗歌创作就已存在说理论道的情形 ,至魏晋受老庄玄学炽盛的影响 ,集中以玄妙语言阐讲老庄之道 ,便蔚然成风 ;魏晋清谈作为一种口头创作 ,其谈论的内容及语言风格 ,对玄言诗追求简约平淡的创作风格 ,有很直接的影响

Literary Causes of Metaphysic Poems

To explain the occurrence of metaphysic poems,we must think it in three respects,that is the literary theory,literary tradition and oral literary.First,with the influence of differentiating language and significance of the metaphysic school in Wei Jin Times,the literary theory in Wei Jin brought about an idea:it is a duty to express some philosophic theory for poetry,this brings a theoretical foundation to the occurrence of metaphysic poems;Second,the tradition of the creation of philosophic poems and its development in the Jian An Age makes speak theory in poem very easy;Third,as a kind of oral creation,the idle talk in Wei Jin seeks value of succinctness and extensiveness of pure talks,this has some direct influences upon the poetry creation.
