Researches On Chen Lv's Literary Thoughts And Ancient Prose Creation

Chen Lv,a famous scholar in Fujian in Yuan Dynasty,created a large number of poems and essays all his life.His works are mainly collected in Anya Tang Collection(also known as Chen Zhongzhong Collection),and some are scattered in other collections.Among them,Chen Lv's creation of ancient Chinese is particularly prominent.At the end of Yuan Dynasty,Lu Qi,Lin Yishun and Lin Quansheng all took literature as a famous scholar in central Fujian.Chen Lv's father,Chen Zixiu,and his grandfather,Zhao Biye(10th Sun of Taizong in Song Dynasty),are both southeastern Confucians.Enlightened by his grandfather,Chen Lv was devoted to learning,followed by Wenling's famous Confucian Fu Guzhi,and was recommended as a Confucian official in Fujian;Yonggu people "Ma Zuchang" promised to "Guange ware",and Yu Ji was extended to the door to lecture,known as a confidant;was recommended by Zhao Shiyan as an assistant teacher of Guozi;later,he was appointed as an assistant official of JiangZhe province Confucianism,and was appointed as "minister of Hanlin writing" and "Minister of imperial college Supervisor".During his time as a Confucian official,Chen Lv had extensive contacts with hermits,Han people,other ethnic groups,Confucians,Taoists and Buddhists,which was also reflected in many of his poems and essays.Chen Lv's travel experience has an important influence on his literary thought and literary creation.Chen Lv has profound family and academic origins,and also has lectures by teachers and friends.He is deeply influenced by Confucianism and inherits much of Cheng and Zhu's Neo-Confucianism.The concept of Neo-Confucianism is also reflected in Chen Lv's literary thought and ancient prose creation.On the basis of inheriting the predecessors' theories of "temperament nature","changing temperament" and "nourishing qi",Chen Lv integrated the concept of "regulating Qi" into the theory of literary style,and formed the literary creation theory and literary criticism theory characterized by "nourishing clean Qi by writing" and "affecting literary movement by luck".On the basis of the Confucian theory of the relationship between literature and Taoism,Chen Lv put forward the literary creation idea of "Tao is based on literary diction" and "there is something to nourish but nothing to induce".Chen Lv put forward "Literature should learn from the classics" and advocated that composition should be "tied to politics and helpful to world education".This is not only the theory of literary creation,but also the theory of literary criticism.In literary aesthetics,Chen Lv pursues the aesthetic ideal of the beauty of neutrality,which runs through social politics,ethics and morality,personal accomplishment,harmony between heaven and man,and influences the formation of elegant Chinese style of writing.Chen Lv has a high level of education,writing must be in line with the pre-Qin classics and Tang and Song Dynasties,relaxation and law,deep colonization,hair is full of lush.Chen Lv's ancient prose creation involves many kinds of literary styles,showing different literary styles and basically showing a style suitable to the style.In commentary,the text of comment,explanation and book often uses the structure of subject-object question-and-answer to restrain the guest and promote the subject,and "restrain the guest and uphold the host vertically and horizontally",with strong momentum and eloquent style;the words and articles basically follow the thought of "sutra-requisition-original way" to explain and reason,"admonish and admonish",quote the classics,and "take textual research as the text",with the style of honesty and elegance;the prefaces and postscriptures talk about the ancient and present,and often send forth the elegant style.Comments,especially the postscripts of painting and calligraphy,are short and concise,explaining problems and solving difficulties,showing the style of critical remarks,and conforming to the principle of being honest.In narrative text,miscellaneous narrative combines narrative,description and comment,which integrates narrative,literary thinking and ingenuity,and its pavilions and pavilions are particularly prominent;the inscriptions are mostly "Shengde in the preface" and "Hongyi in Zhaoji",which have fixed form of preface and afterword inscriptions,combining rhyme with rhyme,solemn and elegant;the biographical narrative propagandizes the virtue and good deeds of feudal women.In Lyric prose,lyric prose mainly expresses feelings and aspirations,and in some prose,it has the characteristics of argumentation;the prose eulogizing morality and mourning is moderate,courteous,rhyming,harmonious and solemn,in which theinscriptions are more exhortational and warning,and the language is concise and mild;the portrait praises are in four-word rhyme prose,and the prose is full of emotion;the prose is well-organized and the prose is well-organized.The preface is full of lyrics,reasoning and comment,and its words are eloquent,diluting the feelings of separation and praise.As Siku Guanchen said,"Since the Pre-Qin Dynasty to the Tang and Song Dynasties,all of you have done elegantly and vigorously.Although its meteorology is not as vast as Yu Ji's,it can't pass the precise place.In the Yuan Dynasty,it was said that they were exceptional.Therefore,Chen Lv's literary influence was not neglected because of his insignificant remarks,nor was it terminated because of his death.It had a certain impact in the late Yuan Dynasty and even in the early Ming Dynasty.Its influence not only extended to his students and lecturers such as Wu Benliang and Song Wuyi,but also to Song Lian and Yang Shiqi from Yuan Dynasty to Ming Dynasty.At the same time,his literary thoughts and ancient prose creation may have an impact on the elegant,simple and easy Taige style literature in the early Ming dynasty,to some extent.
