Zhao Zhishen's Poetry Theory Research

Zhao Zhishen ,a very talented poet on the early Qing dynasty in the poetic world,and Wang Shizhen are two important persons called "the six poet at that time " on theKangxi dynasty poetic world. As a result of Wang Shizhen's special political status,his poetry theory was extremely influential at that time, had a great many disciples,and had a really dissemination was really broad. His dazzled reputation submergedZhao Zhixin is frustrated in the official career. however it did not mean Zhao Zhixin'spoetry theory has not effete.Zhao carefully examines the poetic world whit a uniquevision,proposing his own poetry theory againstthe abuses in simulation poetry and thecharm theory . His poetry theory—"tanlonglu" caught some important writer'sattention like Yuan Mei, Weng Fanggang, Ji Yun and so on as soon as it is published.There are plenty of scholars who studied some research concerning "the charmtheory"and made great achievement. Neverthdess those research regarding ZhaoZhixin Poetry theory research only appeared as "the charm theory"'s subordinate;Orthey are mentioned while explaining the Qing Dynasty poetic world condition , butinvolves a little . There are few scholars who positively elaborated Zhao Zhixin 'sPoetry theory. Presently, age to the research Zhao Zhixin began 1962,when ChenYouqin published "300th Anniversary of Zhao Zhixin's Birth ", the contemporaryscholar Mr. Zhao Weizhi , Zhao Zhixin's countryman , and Mr. Liu Yuxin wrote manybooks in this aspect, their main work included: "Tan Long Lu Annotations", "ZhaoZhixin Poetry Selected poem", "Zhao Zhixin's Complete works", "Zhao Zhixin'sSelected poem", "Zhao Zhixin Poetry anthology Notepaper Note" and so on, butthese are only the annotation and do not form an adequate system.The purpose article is to make Zhao Zhixin's poetry theory perfect positivelybased on the predecessor' research . We should go out the erroneous zone of generalsummary , and correct mistakes which only takes his "Tan Long Lu " as a criticaltool of "the charm theory". Furthermorn, we should realize that Zhao Zhixin isconstructing his own poetry theory while criticizing Simulation Theory . At the sametime, we should also analyze Zhao Zhixin 's character from the positive side, correctlyevaluate on controversy of " Tan Long " between him and Wang Shizhen. It can besaid that Zhao is an intelligent stubborn feudal writer, and his official career is full offrustrations. His argument over about " Tan Long "with Wang Shizhen is the twodifferent academic point of view of creative theory on the poetry, not their privategrudge. As a civilian , Zhao Zhixin tris to raise the question to the poetry chief ,thecourage that is worthy learning to us.His poetry theory was focused on his work "Tan Long Lu" and his other works,his "Long" is accordance with the art creative law , incarnating his realistic creativemethods. In particular, he makes "the article contained idea" as poetry standards ,proposes "there are things outside poetry" . He believed that poetry should reflect thepoet's personality,and personality should be highlight. The poetry should follow theprinciple , " there are people inside poetry." In view of the prevalence of simulationpoetry and Formalism , he proposed that intention is the first ,"language" is the secondon the creation of poetry, and said whitout " intention " ,any kind of poetry is empty,that is " The first is the artistic conception, the second is the language." He pursuediversity of art forms that the poet should be in accordance with his own conditionsand love, freely choose their preferred artistic style ,that the poet creative shouldbased on oneself …… his poetry character is "thinking-carved" , namely innovationof the subject and detailed depiction, the pursuit of "truth" display of poet'spersonality . It manifests the harmonious unity between poetry creation practice andpoetry theoryAs a result , I think we should be reexamine Zhao Zhixin's "Tan Long Lu" aswell as his poetry ,aiming to make his poetry system more perfect, The correctunderstanding artistic style and the diversification of manifestation ,especially had aprofound influence on the exploration and development of the realism creationmethod.
