白居易一生沉溺于诗歌创作,他常用“诗魔”等字眼来形容自己的创作激情;同时他笃信佛教,后半生宗教热忱更高。他的创作激情与佛教热忱之间存在着矛盾和冲突。他用因果宿命观、“文字因缘”、偿还“诗债”等来解释和化解创作冲动和宗教热忱之间的矛盾。“文字因缘”与偿还“诗债”理论确立了诗人本位意识和诗歌本位意识,也为他的“游戏”之作找到了一定理论依据。白居易创作沉溺心理既反映了他个人政治热情退潮后的补偿心理,也反映了中唐人对诗歌功能新的认识。 Bai Juyi indulged himself in poetry writing all his life. He often used the term “poem magic” to describe his passion for creation. At the same time, he believed in Buddhism and religious enthusiasm in the latter half of the year was even higher. There is conflict and conflict between his creative passion and Buddhist zeal. He uses the concept of cause and effect to explain and dissolve the contradiction between creative impulse and religious zeal, such as “karma”, repayment of “poem debt” and so on. “Text Cause” and “Repayment ” “Poem Debt ” theory established the consciousness of the poet ’s own standard and poetry - based consciousness, and also found a certain theoretical basis for his “game ”. Bai Juyi’s creative addictive psychology reflects not only the compensatory psychology after his low ebb of political enthusiasm, but also the new understanding of the poetry function of the middle-Tang dynasty.
