Analysis On "the Great Transfer From The Ancient To The Modern"and The Significance Of Zhang Xian's Ci

In the late Ching dynasty, Chen Ting-zhuo, the theoretician on ci, at the time of in point of Zhang Xian's ci, called it as" the great transfer from the ancient to the modern". The theory that is henceforth usually be quoted from this words at the time of commenting on the Zhang Xian's ci. But most people have no analytical on Chen Ting-zhuo's original meaning, thus it is easy to make a distortion of comprehension on it, even lost Chen Ting-zhuo's essentials meaning of this words. So it is hard to overall understand the history meaning of Zhang Xian's ci. Therefore, it's necessary to make some differentiate and analyze on Chen Ting-zhuo's words, thus can make more overall comprehension on Zhang Xian's ci history meaning of ci. Chen Ting-zhuo called Zhang Xian's ci as" the great transfer from the ancient to the modern ", is from two angles of" ancient idea" and "sound and color", and diefined it on the comprehensive comprehension of both side come to Zhang Xian's ci. Therefore, we want to comprehend Chen Ting-zhuo's meaning of this words, will explicit these two contents of concept. So-called" ancient idea", according to Chen Ting-zhuo's original intention, should include three layers of meaning mostly: The first, its source can trace back to 《Feng 》and 《Sao》.,there is an important standpoint of Chen Ting-zhuo's theory on ci,si that e the literature of Ci is similar to the literature of poem, are all advanced from 《Feng 》and 《Sao》, so to express the contents of the literature of poem with ci is perfectly deserved, and the literature of ci also should do away with the superficiality of the civil ci and earlier period scholar ci as far as possible. The second, take deeply depressed affection as the main affection keynote. Chen Ting-zhuo think that the affection of the literature of ci expression should be deeply depressed, the deeply depressed affection then can make the whole work present a kind of not flighty outside style, the motion of the optimism becomes easily superficial, but the deeply depressed affection then can make the work have a deeply groundwork. The third, take the imaginary describing skill of the Bi-Xing consign as the main technique of expression. Chen Ting-zhuo thinks that the expression of the affection shouldn't be straight, but should use imaginaries as the medium, even the sad affection of country and the life experience should also ask the for help" the one wood and one grass", then it can attain" between can be see and conceal, between straight and reserved, and holding up the affection again and again" thus, we can see the thick temperament of the writers. So-called "sound and color", is mean that a kind of outside style based on the contents of ci, the emotion, the imaginary, the related technique of expression and some other factors synthesize together. Come up to say the contents, Zhang Xian's ci had expanded the depiction contents of the traditional ci, the daily life of literati and officialdom is taken into the literature of ci. So it caused a series changes of the literature of ci. The work on male topic increase, so therelated imaginary also emergence in the literature of ci greatly, thus increasing the beauty of male's strong and hard. The emotion that behind the imaginary is also gradually replaced by the broad and robust and male emotion of literati and officialdom. Come up to see from the description skill of affection, from " ancient idea" with the form of the thing implied meaning to change into the affection to express directly. Chen Ting-zhuo thinks that Zhang Xian's ci has these two special features, thus carried out the transfer from the ancient to the modern of the literature of ci. But the transfer function of Zhang Xian's ci is not to limit at Chen Ting-zhuo's words of these. The inherit and expand function of Zhang Xian's ci to the literature of ci can be still express at following few aspects: The first, come up to see from the outside form, Zhang Xian's ci use a great deal of small preface, the creation of these small prefaces is not accidental, but caused directly by the phenomenon that the contents have apart from the ci pai gradually and mutually. Before this the contents is basically accordance with the ci pai, and Zhang Xian's ci is not only take the usual emotion of literati and officialdom into the literature of ci, but also greatly strengthen the function of record of ci. Therefore, small preface was emergence at this time reasonably. The second, the creations corpus and the sentiment corpus comes to an unite as one on a certain degree. Before this, the function of speech for others is still obviously, the great majorities are all male...
