摘要: 中国新诗的“朦胧说”理论不是一种抽象的理论假设,而是建立在百年新诗史上的朦胧诗论文献基础上,是对现当代不同时期朦胧诗论内容的历史概括与理论阐释。将历史上的“朦胧诗论”提炼、阐释成为“朦胧诗学说”,其理论要旨是:“朦胧”是新诗诗意创造的重要途径,是新诗创作所追求的重要美学境界,朦胧即美;作为历史形态的“朦胧说”包括既有的朦胧语义晦涩论,但作为理论形态的“朦胧说”则需要反思、警惕朦胧语义晦涩论;新诗“朦胧说”属于传播接受理论范畴,必须科学地处理读者、诗人与新诗文本之间的复杂关系,充分尊重读者的阅读反应,倡导培育具有主体性品格和创造性阅读意识的新诗读者。新诗“朦胧说”是中国诗歌进入现代社会后发展出来的一种新型诗学理论,将其阐释进中国诗学理论体系,可以其现代性品格激活中国传统诗学的内在生命力,丰富与发展中国诗学。
From “Misty Poetics” to “Misty Poetics Theory”——The Consciously Constructing of “Misty Poetics Theory” in Chinese New Poetry
Abstract: Based on the literature on misty poetry theory in the history of modern Chinese poetry over the past century,the paper proposes for the first time the establishment of the “misty poetics theory” in Chinese new poetry.It is not an abstract theoretical hypothesis,but rather a historical generalization and theoretical interpretation of misty poetry theory’s content across different periods of modern and contemporary times.That is,it refines and elucidates the historical “Misty Poetics” into “Misty poetics theory”.The main theoretical tenets include:“mistiness” serves as a crucial pathway for poetic creation in new poetry and an important aesthetic pursuit in new poetry writing,in essence,mistiness embodies beauty.And as a historical form,the “Misty Poetics Theory” encompasses existing views that misty semantics are obscure,but as a theoretical form,it necessitates reflection and vigilance against semantic obscurity theory.While,the “Misty Poetics Theory” in new poetry belongs to the realm of communication and reception theory,requiring a scientific approach to the complex relationship among readers,poets,and new poetry texts,fully respecting readers’ responses and advocating for the cultivation of new poetry readers with subjective character and creative reading consciousness.In a word,the “Misty Poetics Theory” in new poetry is a novel poetic theory developed after Chinese poetry entered modern society.It should be integrated into the theoretical system of Chinese poetics,using its modern characteristics to activate the inherent vitality of traditional Chinese poetics,and enrich and develop it further.
