王士禛與文學新典範

Wang Shizhen (1634-1711) and the 'New' Canon

本文主要在探討王士慎的「神韻說」如何在極其複雜的清初文學環境中獲得很高的評價。而王士禎之所以一躍而成一代之宗的文學新典範，既與美學的考量有關，也與當時的政治環境有著密切的關係。同時，本文也深入討論所謂「典範大家」的文化情懷。以王士禎為例，他一直到生命的最後一刻，還在病床上不斷努力改寫他的作品。

The purpose of this paper is to investigate how Wang Shizhen's poetics of shenyun 神韻(spiritual resonance)came to occupy a canonical position in literary judgment during early Qing, and how its gradual canonization resulted from both aesthetic and political discourses of the time. The article also discusses how Wang Shizhen became one of those great authors who constantly revised their own writings until the last moments of their lives.
