There's plenty of hermeneutical thought in annotations of Chinese classical poetry . For instance, an issue raised by Mencius, known as"Yi-yi-ni-zhi". This paper will overall clear up the theory of"Yi-yi-ni-zhi", and get an inside view of it .This paper is divided into four chapters. Firstly, it explores three-tiered contexts of"Yi-yi-ni-zhi". They are"Bu-yi-wen-hai-ci; bu-yi-ci-hai-zhi","Zhe-ren"and"Lun-shi". From the three-tiered contexts the nature of"Yi-yi-ni-zhi"can be defined as an objective critism of textualist on rebuilding the intention of author. The theory can be regarded as a major breakthrough in the development of Chinese classical poetry. Secondly, it discusses theoretical basis of"Yi-yi-ni-zhi", which includes three aspects. They are"written language expressing the meaning","the argument that man is born good", and"aesthetic commonality". Thirdly,it sums up positive and negative lessons in the use of"Yi-yi-ni-zhi". Lastly, it puts forward comments on the unhealthy phenomena of citing Western aesthetics and the criticism of reader action mechanically in the study of"Yi-yi-ni-zhi". |
