Bold Expression of One's True Self
文學(xué)創(chuàng)作抒發(fā)自己真實(shí)獨(dú)特的性情，不拘泥于任何格式套路。原為明代文學(xué)家袁宏道對(duì)其弟弟袁中道文學(xué)創(chuàng)作的評(píng)語，后來成為公安派的核心理論主張，與當(dāng)時(shí)前、后七子“文必秦漢，詩必盛唐”的復(fù)古主義觀點(diǎn)形成了鮮明的對(duì)抗。公安派強(qiáng)調(diào)文藝源于個(gè)人性情，講求獨(dú)創(chuàng)性，重自由，反拘束，要求詩人不為成法所限。在當(dāng)時(shí)尊古、模擬盛行的風(fēng)氣下，這一命題有個(gè)性解放和反傳統(tǒng)的意義，對(duì)于當(dāng)時(shí)及后代的文藝創(chuàng)作產(chǎn)生了積極影響。
This term indicates that a writer should give expression to his true feelings in literary creation and not be constrained by particular regulations or formulas. It was first used by the Ming Dynasty writer Yuan Hongdao as he commented on the literary work of his younger brother Yuan Zhongdao. Later, it became the core idea of the Gong'an School of Literary Writing, firmly opposed to the stubborn emulation of ancient literature as advocated by the Former Seven Masters and the Latter Seven Masters of the time, who highly esteemed prose of the Qin and Han dynasties and poetry of the golden Tang era. The Gong'an School emphasized that literature and art flow forth from the heart, value freedom and originality, and refuse to be bound by any convention. This school urged poets to defy any restriction imposed on them. This view was important to the assertion of individuality and rebellion against tradition, at a time when reverence for and emulation of ancient literature was the trend. It exerted a positive influence on literary creation in that era and later.
