直致 Direct Expression
詩歌的描寫或語言直接而不婉曲。致:到,抵達。與南朝鐘嶸提出的“直尋”含義接近。鐘嶸不滿有的詩歌搬用典故,認為詩歌是感于外物、吟詠情性之作,寫景抒情應有真切的審美感受,語言表達應當不假雕飾、生動鮮明。唐代詩論家殷璠繼承了鐘嶸的觀點,提出了“直致”,進一步說明詩歌寫景抒情應當直接使用質樸率真、明朗自然的語言,傳達自己的眼中之美、心中之情。
This term means that the description and language used in poetry should be direct and straight forward rather than implied. Here, zhi (致) means reaching to something. The origin of this term may be traced to the concept of direct search first proposed by Zhong Rong of the Southern Dynasties. He disapproved of the excessive use of allegories in some poems, maintaining that a poem could only be written when a poet was inspired by external objects. Whether describing scenery or expressing his thoughts, the poet should present his sentiments with vivid writing while avoiding the use of rhetoric. Yin Fan, a Tang Dynasty critic of poetry who followed Zhong Rong's view, put forward the term "direct expression," believing that one should use simple, clear and vivid language to describe both scenery and his sentiment.
