相对于中、晚唐和五代而言,宋人在接受柳宗元的方法论上趋于成熟。这主要表现为:其一,在散文领域,由晚唐的“韩、柳并提”之法拓展到“韩、柳、欧、苏”同流的“文章四大家”之说。其二,在诗歌领域,柳诗第一次被发现和大规模接受,分别形成了诗学史上的“陶、柳”和“韦、柳”之论。其三,在唐代“知人论世”之法的基础上,欧阳修把他作为自己“穷而后工”理论的践行者。其四,柳诗的“第一读者”苏轼开创了著名的“删诗”之法。上述四个方面,给后人接受柳宗元提供了方法论上的指导,具有各自的文学意义。 Compared with the middle and late Tang and the Five Dynasties, the Song people tended to mature in the methodology of accepting Liu Zongyuan. This is mainly manifested in the following aspects: First, in the field of prose, from the method of “Han and Liu mentioning” in the late Tang Dynasty, it is extended to “Four Generations of the Same People” written by Han, Liu, Said. Second, in the field of poetry, Liu poetry was first discovered and accepted on a large scale, which respectively formed the theory of “Tao, Liu” and “Wei and Liu” in the history of poetry. Thirdly, on the basis of the law of the Tang Dynasty and the theory of knowing the world, Ouyang Xiu regarded him as a practitioner of his theory of “poor and later”. Fourthly, Liu Shi’s “First Reader” Su Shi created the famous “Delete Poem” method. The above four aspects provide methodological guidance to future generations to accept Liu Zongyuan and have their own literary significance.
