李冶와 그 詩에 대한 중국 문인의 인식과 평가

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the perception and criticism of Chinese literary men about Li ye and her poetry through the past notes on poets and poetry regarding Li ye. 6 poems of Li ye’s poetry were first recorded in 『Zhongxingjianqiji』 written by Gao zhong wu in Tang Dynasty with a brief criticism. Narration in Zhongxingjianqiji was later cited repeatedly in Li ye’s poems and pictures and had a profound effect until the end of Ming Dynasty. Li ye received more attention in the anecdotes relates to his whereabouts from posterity than his poetry. In the anecdote, Li ye was described as a woman who had poetic talent but couldn’t keep the four virtues traditionally required to women, and it was narrated her poetic talent was rather negatively affected her life. The critics’ double-mindedness of positive and negative about Li ye’s talent also affected the appreciations of Li ye’s poetry. The assessment in Zhongxingjianqiji of “abandon and licentious” was consistently quoted by disputants from Song, Yuan, and Ming since Tang Dynasty. By the end of Ming Dynast, as the social interest and criticism began to increase regarding the poetry of female poets, Li ye’s poetry could be also assessed newly in the aspect of literary trend. Hu zhen heng commented that Li ye’s poetry is “a a form of standard poetry during the Dali period’ and assessed that Li ye left the representable works of Five-character verse form widespread in the Dali period.
