意象推動．抒情為體．隱喻為用——析論簡政珍的長詩美學

Take the Image as a Motive Force, Get the Lyric as the Subject, and Use the Metaphor as a Usage: to Analyze the Poet's Long Poems with Aesthetics

文學思想家簡政珍迄今所寫的長詩，計五首。除了五百多行的詩小說，尚未發表外；其第四首長詩〈流水的歷史是雲的責任〉，將於二○○四年春季號（創世紀）詩刊發表；筆者〈欸乃一聲山水綠——試析簡政珍〈流水的歷史是雲的責任〉長詩「如露亦如電」之虛空思維〉一文，亦將於二○○四年三月二十七日，於修平學院所舉辦的「戰後台灣文學」研討會議上宣讀。其〈失樂園〉長詩，筆者於《台港文學選刊》二○○三年七月號，發表〈簡政珍〈失樂園〉的「後現代」意涵與意義〉。至於其〈浮生紀事〉長詩，筆者嘗撰〈哲學是詩和現實交相辯證後的結果——簡政珍〈浮生紀事〉長詩的意境美學三昧〉一文，發表於《彰化師大文學院學報》第二期。一般長詩的寫作，大都是先規劃敘述的章節，再以意象「填充」主結構與副結構；簡政珍的長詩卻反其道而行。本文〈意象推動．抒情為體．隱喻為用——析論簡政珍的長詩美學〉，旨在窮究簡政珍以「意象思維體現生命的厚度」（《文訊》二○○三年十月號）之「長詩美學」）。

The poet Jian Zheng-zhen rose rapidly in the 80's in Taiwan. To date, ''The Smell of History”, ''The Chronicle of Lift”, and ''Paradise Lost'' are his representative works in 90's. Image thinking is the poet's basic philosophy, and it is also a special style which is hard to imitate. Li Shan-yao thinks that the image's connection between ego and super-ego in Jian's poems is the connection between sense and sensibility. Gu Tian-hong considers that the most difficult of long poems, the greatest test to poets and the key point of aesthetics is structure. The structure of long poems' aesthetics can be said as accomplishing something at one go. Wu Xin-fa says that the structure of long poem in Paradise Lost is filled with tension. Chen Jian-min analyzes Jian Zheng-zhen contributes his long poems in emphasizing the connection between image and space. Fei Yong praises that the reason why the poet is admired by his long poems is because through the organization of image, the poems are established with a quiet complete metaphorical system. The poet uses the most remarkable way to poeticize contemporary Chinese social reality in terms of style, language and observing angles. Xiong Guo-hua highly praises that the poet uses lyric as a frame in the long poems, and it replaces the traditional style of narration. Zheng Ming-Ii considers that Jian Zheng-zhen's long poems with aesthetics of image are a blend with knowledge and emotion. I expect to ''take the image as a motive force, get the lyric as the subject, and use the metaphor as an usage'' to analyze the poet's long poems with aesthetics. The sympathy of natural family bonds and the thoroughly understanding of emptiness: it is the poet who gets the lyric as the subject that broadens the meaning. Besides, he overlaps the exchange of texts and sets the reality with historical reorganization.
