《文心雕龙》
《文心雕龙》是中国南朝文学理论家刘勰（xié）创作的一部理论系统、结构严密、论述细致的文学理论专著。成书于公元501～502年（南朝齐和帝中兴元、二年）间。参考《易经》中的“卜筮”原理，刘勰将本书细分成五十篇对文学理论进行探讨。本书借鉴了西晋陆机文学理论专著《文赋》中的一些内容，并对一些内容有所反驳。《文心雕龙》系统地论述了文学的形式和内容、继承和革新的关系，细致地探索和论述了语言文学的审美本质及其创造、鉴赏的美学规律。《文心雕龙》提出的“辞约而旨丰，事近而喻远”“隐之为体义主文外”“文外之重旨”“使玩之者无穷，味之者，不厌”等说法内涵丰富、意蕴深远。

本书包括338个单句。

The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons
The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons is a highly influential work on Chinese literary aesthetics. Dating from the 5th century, its author, Liu Xie, composed the work in fifty chapters according to the principles of numerology and divination found in the Book of Changes or I Ching. The work also draws on and argues against the 3rd century author Lu Ji's work the Wen fu ("On Literature"). Liu Xie wished to give a complete and internally consistent account of literature. Among his contributions is his remarkable notion that affections are literally the medium of literature, and language merely the product.

作者

刘勰
刘勰(约465年-约520年)，字彦和，中国历史上的文学理论家、文学批评家。中国文学评论巨著《文心雕龙》的作者，他32岁时开始写《文心雕龙》，历时五年成书，他的生平记载于《梁书》之中。
生于京口(今镇江)，祖籍山东。刘勰很早就成了孤儿，他发愤图强，热爱学习。因为家里太穷（或是因为信仰）而没有娶妻结婚，和沙门的僧人住在一起。十多年后，他对那些经文都很精通。他分门别类地整理了这些经文，抄录下来，还为经文写了序言。如今定林寺里面藏的经文，都是刘勰编写修订的。卒年歧说甚多。一说卒于梁普通元年(公元520)和二年(公元521年)之间，一说卒于梁大同四年(公元538)和五年(公元539年)之间。
