文学研究对宋孝宗缺乏关注,实际上他对宋代文学有着重大影响。他起用主战派发动北伐而他的诗歌以抒发昂扬的斗志为特色。他提倡读苏轼作品,使读书的范围突破了宋太祖强调的经史两部。他崇尚道学,召张栻与朱熹侍经筵讲习儒家经典,使经筵讲义走向兴盛。孝宗朝的戏剧和话本小说已经相当兴盛,而他对这些新兴的市民艺术不予关注。 Literature studies lacked attention to Song Xiaozong, in fact, he had a significant influence on the literature of the Song Dynasty. He used the War-faction to launch the Northern Expedition and his poetry featured high-spirited morale. He advocated studying the works of Su Shi, so that the scope of his study broke through the historical two emphasized by Taizu. He admired Taoism and called Zhang Xi and Zhu Xi’s paternity to teach Confucian Classics to make the classics handouts go prosper. Xiaozong drama and storytelling novels have been quite flourishing, and he ignored these emerging public art.
