文心雕龙宗经篇疏释

刘勰提倡“宗经” ,并不是推崇和宣扬儒家思想 ,而是提倡学习儒家经典著作中所体现的文章写作的各种表达方式和技巧 ,写出既有充实内容又有生动表达技巧的有补于世的好文章 ,以抵制当时愈演愈烈的浮华文风。儒家五经在文章写作上表现方法齐全 ,艺术技巧多样 ,文体类别兼备 ,源远流长 ,这是刘勰把它奉为文章写作典范的理由和根据。“六义说”是刘勰主张宗经而在文章写作方面所要遵循的原则和标准 ,是刘勰对文章写作理论的贡献。它对于现代各种体裁的文章写作 ,仍不失理论指导的意义。

Explanation on Zhongjing Classics of "Wenxindiaolong"

The aim of Liu Xie's advocating Zhongjing Classics was not to hold in esteem or propagate Confusianism, but to recommend a variety of styles and skills from confusian classics that were good for writing in hopes that, with the skills and ways of expression, excellent articles that were substantial in content and vivid in ways of expression would come into being to resist the increasing ostentatious styles in writing. The Five Classics of Confusiansim has a satisfactory variety of styles, skills and ways of expression, which come from a distant source. That is the real reason why Liu Xie recommended it as paragon for writing. "The Six Canons" recommended by Liu Xie is not noly the criteria for writing, but his contribution to writing theory, which is now considered a theoretical guideline for various styles of writings.
