About the lectures

詞在經歷元明二代近四百年的衰微之後,在明末突然煥發出耀眼光芒。
從歷史層面考察,清初是一個由亂世走向盛世的過程;從文學史層面考察,清初文學也正是一個從衰頹走向繁榮的過程。
清初詩詞的發展及觀念上的變化,與當時代漢文人對滿清王朝的心態轉變密切相關。而漢文人心態的轉變,又與康熙十八年博學鴻儒科的舉辦有著密切關系。
清初詩壇的主流是「遺民詩」。在當時漢族人民和清朝統治者之間存在矛盾的情況下,具有反清思想的明朝「遺民」詩人。有的詩篇因受禁錮而失傳,但流傳下來的依舊富有反抗精神。
這個10月,蘇州大學文學院副教授、碩士生導師——陳昌強博士將帶領我們一起走進清初詞學的世界,從南北宋之爭與清代浙西詞派的歷史演進、論康熙皇帝的詞學活動及其影響談到「重光後身」說與清初詞學演進。
