发帖数: 1642 | 7 每年四月是National Poetry Month， 是由The Academy of American Poets于1996年
发起的。在这个月，全国各地会有很多图书馆、学校及其他机构举办诗歌讲座、朗诵等
活动，比如我见过我们这儿当地公共图书馆就有诗人开过介绍聂鲁达和其他诗人作品的
讲座。poets.org上有更多信息。
我们这儿的当地报纸上也有一些关于诗的文章。下面这篇是个诗人和文学教授写的教普
通读者如何阅读理解诗歌的文章，在昨天的报纸上，挺有意思的。
摘要一下：没有必要对诗有一种本能的排斥，不要预先假定自己读不懂诗。诗人可能会
用一些看似荒唐无理的语言，来促使读者用不同的眼光看世界。如果一首诗一读就全懂
，没有任何神秘性，不能促人思考，也不一定就好。诗要慢慢读，多读几遍，即使第一
遍没读懂，并不意味着这是首烂诗，真正好的诗，每读一遍，就会给人更多理解，更多
发现，意味无穷。

清华简《耆夜》为伪作考 姜广辉 付赞 邱梦
本文考证清华简《耆夜》为伪作，理由是：一、简文载周公致毕公诗，开头一句是“戎
服”，考“戎服”概念晚出，大约在公元前800年左右军旅之衣称为“韎韐”，公元前
650年左右称为“均服”，公元前550年左右称为“戎服”、以“赑赑”叠字作为修饰语
直到唐代才有。二、简文两次见“祝诵”词汇，考先秦古籍只单言“祝”或“颂”，不
言“祝诵”或“祝颂”。宋代学者作文献研究，分析文辞、文意，始立“祝颂”之目。
三、简文载周公酬武王祝诵诗，开头一句是：“明明上帝，临下之光。”前一句首见于
晋人诗句，是歌颂上帝的；后一句首见于宋人诗句，是歌颂宋帝的，这两句诗乃是现代
人集句，非周公原创。四、《蟋蟀》一诗原载《诗经·国风·唐风》，先秦季札和孔子
都认为此诗反映唐尧节俭遗风。简文则说《蟋蟀》一诗为周公所作。考《诗经》三百零

Pain has an element of blank;

Its infinite realms contain
Its past, enlightened to perceive
New periods of pain.

gentleman is, rather than does”，大意是说：君子是实为君子，而不是行为成一个
君子。我们是不是也可以这么说：a poet is, rather than does？
很多现代“诗人”，他们的误区就在于，他们写诗，是为了迎合某种需要，而这种需要
