元祐更化与元祐诗坛

元丰八年,神宗病逝,太子赵煦即位,是为哲宗,次年改元元祐。由于即位时的哲宗皇帝年仅十岁,故由神宗母宣仁太后高氏临朝听政。高氏执政后亲近旧党,尽废新法,是为元更化。元祐更化虽倾向旧党,旧党人士及与旧党关系密切之人多数得到擢升,但他们却普遍具有一种彷徨不安的畏祸心理,这种心理直接影响了他们的诗歌创作,具体来说:其诗多描写生活琐事、题咏日常物品、抒写隐逸情怀,押险韵、用僻典,追求生硬拗峭的诗风。

"Yuanyou Genghua" and Yuanyou Poesy

In Yuanfeng 8,Zhao Xu ascended the throne after emperor Shen-zong died.Because Zhao Xu was only 10 years old when he was enthroned,the potency was actually held by his grandmother who had a close relationship with members of Old Party and abolished all the new laws.Although most members of Old Party had been promoted in the process,they had a kind of uneasy mental state which affected their poetry,concretely saying: most poetry were interested in describing the living trifles,intoning daily things,expressing retiring port,rhyming rare rhyme,using uncommon literary quotation and pursuing crudity poesy.
