论中唐通俗诗派

中唐分前后两个时期。后期诗坛有通俗、怪奇、雅正三个流派 ,三大流派构成了奇特的鼎立抗衡格局。通俗派诗歌的主导风格在于质实通俗 ,不避俚浅 ,讽兴时事 ,不虚为文。如此倾向可谓其来有自 ,总体上说是其主观追求的结果。就艺术实践而言 ,成就不小 ,但缺陷难免。“非求宫律高 ,不务文字奇” ,此为通俗诗派审美追求的全部内涵 ,同时也是抗衡雅正诗派、怪奇诗派的鲜明旗帜。审视一番诗派鼎立之格局 ,有助于中唐诗坛形势的立体化认识。

Popular Poem School in the Middle Part of Tang Dynasty

The poem styles in middle part of Tang Dynasty may be divided into two periods. In the later period, forming unique tripartite confrontation there were three major schools: the popular, the weird, and the refined. The major style of the popular school lay in its popularly simplicity without avoiding vulgarity, its irony against errors of the time without seeking turgidity. Generally speaking, such a tendency may be the result of subjective seeking. From the angle of artistic practice, there was quite some achievement by the school, although it may also be said that there were limitations. "Not seeking elegance in the rhyme and shocker in the wording" was not only the whole connotation of the taste by the popular poem school, but also its remarkable slogan against the other two schools: the refined, and the weird. A survey of the tripartite confrontation of the poem schools is helpful to the solid understanding of the situations of Parnassus in the middle part of the Tang Dynasty.
