知音：穿越时空的心灵对话

刘勰《文心雕龙·知音》篇是中国古代较为完整的批评和接受理论,若以现代西方接受美学的视角进行观照,则“知 音”批评也是以读者为核心建立起来的批评理论;但“知音”批评较之早期接受美学过分强调读者创造性解读的作用,更具辨证 眼光。它将文本看成是作者与读者超越时空对话的产物,在充分考虑到读者的价值和意义的同时又不忽略作者和文本。

"Zhi Yin": Heart-to-Heart Dialogue across Time and Space

The "Zhi Yin"in Liu Xie's Carving a Dragon at the Core of Literature is the more perfect theory of criticism and acceptance in ancient China. Looked at from the angle of modern Western acceptance aesthetics, the criticism of the "Zhi Yin"is also the theory with the readers at its core, but its perspective is more dialectical than early acceptance aesthetics. It regards a text as the result of dialogue across time and space between the authors and readers, and does not neglect the authors and texts as it thinks about the readers' value and significance.
