Abstract
置《兰亭集序》于东晋玄风氛围之中来细读，比较此文与石崇《金谷诗序》的观念性歧异，此种差异恰可对应向秀、郭象注《庄》及支遁解《逍遥》义，为《兰亭集序》辨明玄风盛炽及交锋之下，其观念建立之身份缘起及哲学基础；并且从国家祭祀到临河修禊，探索文本之间许多语汇之道教密码，认识到修禊本以祈求吉祥为旨归，何以兰亭诗集里诗人作品却充斥齐一生死等熟词滥调，因而王羲之拨乱反正，凸显“死生亦大矣”之谠论，正视诗歌写作“兴感之由”，实有助当时诗学走出误区，为晋宋诗人赓续《诗》 《骚》传统，找到正确的方向。
This article provides a close reading of the “The Preface of Langtingji” through comparing the conception of Shi Chong’s “The Preface of Jingu Poems”. The difference of the two prefaces could find correlation in Xiang Xiu and Guo Xiang’s annotations of Zhuang Zi, and Zhi Dun’s interpretation of “Xiao Yao”. This article explains a few things of the “The Preface of Langtingji” in the background of metaphysical debate: the conceptual construction, origin of identity, and philosophical sources. From the activities of national sacrifice offering to waterside ritual, it explores many Taoist codes of the terms between texts. The purpose of waterside ritual is for praying and seeking auspiciousness, but the poems of “Langtingji” filled with clichés like “life equals to death”. To set things right, Wang Xizhi paid attention to the emotional inspiration of poetic creation by emphasizing the viewpoint “life and death are big things”. This could help the contemporary poetics out of misunderstanding, and it also pointed out the right direction for the poets in the period of Jin Dynasty to the beginning of the Southern and Northern Dynasties to inherit the Shijing and Lisao tradition.
