摘要: 文学“三变”说由《新唐书·文艺传序》提出,专指唐文三变,这与宋人文学史观的形成有极大的关联。追踪其源,又与汉人的三代文质观承接,宋人对韩、柳古文的赞述,是渊承《汉书·儒林传序》中汉人对孔子与“六经”的推尊,其核心是“一王法”思想由“儒林”向“文艺”的变移。唐文“三变”之“变”,关键在尊“统”,其中由道统到文统,由文统回归道统的交互书写,正是汉、宋两朝论儒术与文艺内涵的逻辑演进。而“三变”说作为文学发展的重要指向,凸显的是中国古代文学批评代际演变的历史价值与现实意义。

Abstract: Three transformative trends in Tang-Dynasty prose were observed in The New Book of Tang, and this viewpoint played a significant role in shaping the concept of literary history in the Song Dynasty. Its historical foundation lies in the cultural and qualitative understanding of the three ancient dynasties during the Han Dynasty. The admiration for the ancient-style prose by Han Yu and Liu Zongyuan in the Song Dynasty can be traced back to the reverence for the Six Classics during the Han Dynasty. The crux of this perspective lies in the shift of the “one-king” political system, transitioning from a focus on Confucianism to one on literary creation. At the heart of the transformation of Tang-Dynasty prose was the progression from orthodoxy to literary tradition, aligning with the dialectical understanding of Confucianism and literature in the Han and Song dynasties. As an pivotal direction in literary development, the notion of “three transformative trends” underscores the historical significance and practical value of the evolution of ancient Chinese literary criticism across different dynasties.

Key words: three transformative trends in Tang-Dynasty prose, relationship between content and form of the Three Ancient Dynasties, “one-king” political system, literary and political traditions, evolution of literature across different dynasties
