李商隱 桂州幕府 時期 詩 硏究

Abstract

This paper focused on Li Shangyin(李商隱) as a poet served in General's office. He had served in General's office nine times for 27 years in his life. Especially Guizhou General's office which Li had worked for about one year caused him a lot of mental conflicts and agonies accompanied by complicated political problems. Though, this period of Guizhou General's Office also can be a rich source of inspiration for composing plentiful poems nearly eighty. Considering that the poems composed during the period of Guizhou General's Office are of great importance in his whole collection, I'd like to understand the facts about the contents and characteristics of these poems through this paper. The contents of this period's poems showed their variety from the feeling of intense anxiety about Ling Hutao(令狐綯)'s blame to the experiences and thoughts arose after a long journey. They also went into details about historical events and observations of things. I think it might be worthwhile to pay attention to these poems, for they often suggest Li's subjective views or feelings on each topic of poem. Finally, I have reached a conclusion that the poems of this period have significant literary achievements. They not only depict the beautiful scenery of Jingchu(荊楚) province without pedantic allusions or analogies, but elaborately describe writer's psychological conflicts like the feeling of isolation, the aversion about strange surroundings, and the suffering of deprivation and so forth. Consequently, Li Shangyin could gain the honorable distinction of a successor of Du Fu(杜甫)'s poetical style, that is to say profound and forceful(沈鬱).
