《两都赋》新论

跟枚乘《七发》、司马相如《天子游猎赋》、扬雄《甘泉赋》等作品比较起来，班固的《两都赋》并不为文学史家看重。然而它在赋史上却是不可替代的：它化解了传统大赋在审美追求和政教伦理追求间的冲突。消除了传统大赋的结构性缺失，体现了为汉德、汉赋乃至整个汉文定性和定位的高度自觉，真正具备了表征汉文的特性。它在汉赋发展历史上具有独特的标志性的意义，应该得到应有的重视。

A New Study of Liangdu Fu

Considering the status of Mei Cheng's Qi Fa, Sima Xiangru's Tianzi Youlie Fu and Yang Xiong's Ganquan Fu, historians of Classical Chinese Literature don't pay enough attention to Ban Gu's Liangdu Fu which can't be substituted in history. Liangdu Fu solves the conflicts between aesthetical taste and political-ethical concerns of traditional Da Fu, corrects its structural defects, embodies Ban Gu's high consciousness that determines the nature of Han-dynasty and the direction of Han Fu or Han Literature. Rather than the works above, Liangdu Fu does characterize Han Fu. So we should think highly of Liangdu Fu which is the landmark in the history of Han Fu.
