Research Of The Poetic Form Theory Of Tang And The Five Dynasties

Research of the poetic form theory of Tang and the Five dynasties since1930s and1940s have made a lot of achievements,but there are so many problems and deficiencies. These studies did not establish theoretical mechanism,did not summary its corresponding results of theoretical construction but only stayed in fragment research to someone,some theory and any period of time.The reason is that researchers payed more attention to voluminous theories of Wei and Jin dynasties than short works of Tang and Song dynasties.They did not explore to its thesis which trivial,scattered,cross,repeat even too simple appeared to sort out materials.Another reason is they were short of effective theory means and methods.Therefore they had partial opinion to poetic form theory.Poetic form theory is a pattern of poetry criticism regarding verses form structure.which purpose is to draw up uniform procedure from tone,rhythm to significance and aesthetic effect,establish a surface and deep structure.This can found the interpretation of the evidence about relationship to intents,images and diction from Chinese archaic philosophy and Book of change.So,shaping of Poetic form theory was the consequence that theorists discovered confidence of words form inspired this mode of thinking,they pondered how to realize transformation semantic and isomorphic relationship of meaning,images and diction using new verse,and realize transformation form technique to art,from form to concepts,from method to spirit,and from artistry to metaphysics.Specifically,Poetic form theory focuses on constructing from point,line,aspect to system in proper order on poetry form.It fixes poetry’s words choice,periods,couplets,and tone,rhyming,antithesis and etc.It requires that each word,each periods and each couplet have only function and token role,these words and period-making must link up,one position may choose different terms in order to form coordinate horizontal and vertical.That requests poet use of language skillfully to express most abundant meanings applying least words,to show a air and momentum,broad artistic conception, style with different artic verve.But poetic form theory does not pursue all neat in a poetry but significance and aesthetic effect,does not pursue complying rules strictly but facile grasping,so that poet can experience natural spirit and wisdom spirit.This article starts with theory thinking that from technique to art,sorts out the problems about how to increase expressing function of poetry language how to show aesthetic effect,solved by poetic form theory.Rhythm theory of poetic form theory mainly comprises tone and rhythm,couplets and foul.In aspect about tone and rhythm,this article sorts out from " Five tones " to "four tone" to "two tone", gradually simplified,reveal innovation and exceeding of rhythm theory of poetic form theory to which of YongMing dynasties.In aspect about couplets,discusses meanings of couplets,for example,constructing neat paragraphs, completely expressing significance and communicate time and space. Sorting out to foul also follows above principle.The momentum of style theory.This article sorts out the meanings of "forms"" momentum "," forms " and " approach ",their ideals are the same of " form ",reflet progressive from tone and rhythm style to rhetoric to artistic conception and artic style,mainly discuss the expression of forms and momentum in lines and stanza structure and rhetoric rules.These discussing are beneficial of constructing the terminology system about Rhythm theory of poetic form theory.The theory of artistic conception.This article discusses generating of artistic conception in three stages," remove distraction "," observe images attentively ""masterly make use of characters ",that is to reveal reexplaining of Rhythm theory of poetic form theory to meanings,images and language.In the first stage,the text not only probes the poets must " remove distraction " but also emphasizes layered significance and reserve within,lead to the process of impression searching.Following, demonstrate the important problem:images constitute type.lastly,analysis how form constructing for using allusion and portion scenery,mind expressing and principle to accommodate the typed images.The theory of artic style.Discusses mainly " three basics’,"five kinds of interests and flavors",reveal the artic style is a aesthetic effect and synthesized index by means of rhythm,momentum of style and imposing manner and artistic conception.Analysis various factors which can construct artic style,for instance of "nineteen characters" and distinguish pure artic style and deviation artic style.This article also discusses the differences and the same points between poetic form theory and literary theory in " six " dynasties,remarks on poetry in Song dynasties and tradition poetry theory.reveal critical characteristical of poetic form theory that it abandons tirade and it is non-formalism. Summarize the contributions of:Construct relative perfect system of terminology transform time and space;establish signifier and signified;integrate the diachronic and synchronic;communicate rhythm and art;feedthrough the denotation and connotation;realize aesthetic thought highly.This article also discusses the differences and the same points between poetic form theory and literary theory in " six " dynasties,remarks on poetry in Song dynasties and tradition poetry theory.reveal critical characteristical of poetic form theory that it abandons tirade and it is non-formalism. Summarize the contributions of:Construct relative perfect system of terminology;transform time and space;establish signifier and signified;integrate the diachronic and synchronic;communicate rhythm and art;feedthrough the denotation and connotation;realize aesthetic thought highly.succeed finding the key to study specially artistic skills,all above that have important significance to poetry criticism and poetry writing in future generations. So,re-evaluating its position and value in history of Chinese literature,poetics and literary criticism have very profound and lasting meaning.
