多少梅花样 开遍无人赏——江湖词人姜夔论

南宋江湖词人姜夔一生漂泊,一生落魄,靠友人周济以维持生计。但与当时以文字干谒权贵以博取衣食的江湖游士之下流者不同,姜羹与当日名公钜儒的交往,带有更多的文学目的。其如梅品般的人品及杰出的艺术才华,赢得了同时人的广泛赞誉。依人作客,旅食权门,给姜夔带来了物质生活保障,为其赢得了文学声名,但也给其带来了精神上的痛苦,其作品中便时常流露出寄人篱下、沦落不偶的人生感慨。

There are So Many Plum Flowers Blooming all over,but Nobody Appreciates--Talking about Barnstormer Jiang Kui

The barnstormer Jiang Kui in South-Song Dynasty drifted all his life being down and out and depended on his friends' help in charity to support his life. But Jiang Kui was different with those mean barnstormers who gained the food and clothing by visitinging the bigwigs with their writings at that time, because his association with the famous noblemen and huge Rus was with more literature purpose. His personal character was like the nature of plum flower, and his excellent artistical talents gained wide praise from contemporary peple. Traveling and visiting the bigwigs made a living for Jiang Kui and gained literature fame for him, but also brought him mental pains. Thus his writings often show unintentionally his own life tastes of depending on others for support and loitering without anybody understanding him.
