论《毛诗》之《序》《传》《笺》与荀子之关系

在现有文献条件下，难以断言《毛诗》是否传自荀子，但可对比二者之异同：《大序》“经夫妇，成孝敬，厚人伦，美教化，移风俗”的诗学观与荀子相通。《小序》探索诗的创作背景及反映的历史事件，与荀子借重《诗经》、强化己说不同；不过，《小序》解诗重教化与荀子的诗学精神一脉相通。《毛传》《郑笺》解诗与荀子或通或异。

On the Relationship between Daxu,Xiaoxu and Zheng jian in Maoshi and Xunzi

It is difficult to assert with the relevant literature at present whether Maoshi was passed down from Xunzi, but we can compare the similarities and differences between Maoshi and Xunzi. Both Daxu and Xunzi support positive morality in poetry （ keeping good relationship between husband and wife, being filial to the old, respecting human relations, beautifying humanistic enlightenment, and refining social customs）. Xiaoxu tries to find out the background of creation and the events about history. Xunzi strengthened his views by quoting The Book of Songs. However, what Xiaoxu explains in poetry stresses on moral point, which is similar to the poetic views held by Xunzi. Sometimes there is some difference between Mao zhuan, Zhengjian and Xunzi; yet, sometimes there is some similarity beween Mao zhuan, Zheng jian and Xunzi.
