耕桑与墟市:南宋诗歌的乡村叙事——以范成大诗歌为中心

Farming, Sericulture, and Periodic Rural Markets: The Rural Life in Southern Song China Narrated in the Poetry of Fan Chengda

摘要:

范成大诗歌取材广泛,其中大量作品全面描写了江南农村的人、事、物、景及相互关系,拓展了诗歌中乡村叙事的内涵和外延。范成大诗歌对农村日常生活的刻画兼具纪事性和纪实性,呈现出"实录"的新特征:诗歌描写了江南农村麦稻复种、蚕桑养殖、墟市贸易及农产品流通等景象,复原了江南农村的真实面貌、农民的真实生活,反映出南宋江南崇农与重商并行的新风尚。文章探索打通文史壁垒、以诗证史的实践路径,为农业史、社会史、农村经济史等相关领域的研究,提供了诸多可参考的重要文献资料。

Abstract:

The poetry of Fan Chengda covers a wide range of themes, with a large number of his works offering comprehensive portrayals of the people, events, objects, scenes and their interrelationships in rural Jiangnan, thereby expanding the connotation and extension of rural depiction in Chinese poetry. His portrayal of everyday rural life is imbued with both narrative and documentary nature, exhibiting a new characteristic of "factual recording": it depicts the scenes such as wheat-rice double cropping, sericulture, periodic rural market trade, and the circulation of agricultural product in rural Jiangnan. In this sense, his poetry reconstructs the authentic reality of rural Jiangnan and the real life of its farmers, thus reflecting the emerging trend that values both agriculture and commerce in Jiangnan region of the Southern Song Dynasty. This paper explores the practical path of breaking down the barriers between literature and history and using poetry to verify history, providing a great deal of important reference materials for research in related fields such as agricultural history, social history, and rural economic history.
