徐志摩的形象在中国的公共记忆里是一位浪漫诗人,人们不大知道这位诗人的公共知识分子角色及其在当时文化领域里的主导地位。其实徐氏涉足多个文化艺术领域,做过很多公益事业,是梁启超看重的弟子,与胡适志同道合多年共事,是沈从文的挚友,并与刘海粟艺趣相投。徐志摩曾是颇负盛名的《晨报副刊》编辑,成功经办教育部全国首届美展,并以与徐悲鸿就中国艺术现代化走向的辩论(“二徐之争”)在艺术史上留名。等等一切,不一而足。本文初步梳理徐志摩作为公共知识分子的过程和业绩,旨在还原徐氏的历史真面目,同时也进一步说明当时知识分子对国家文化建设的参与是多方面的。 Xu Zhimo’s image is a romantic poet in China’s public memory.
