宗白华先生是诗人,他以诗化的笔触写美学论文,因而他的美学论著纯然是诗学的编码。宗先生的美学论著,时而错采镂金,雕绘满眼,时而芙蓉出水,天质自然,阅读过程本身即是美学散步。易中天先生说自己诗性的论著受李泽厚先生《美的历程》的影响,而李泽厚先生诗化的妙沦正是得宗先生的真传。宗先生曾给郭沫若写信说:“我们心中不可没有诗意、诗境,但却不必定要作诗。”(《我与 Zong Baihua is a poet who writes aesthetics with poetic strokes, so his aesthetics is purely a poetic code. Mr. Zong’s aesthetic works, sometimes wrong mining gold, carving painted eyes, sometimes water hibiscus, natural nature, the reading process itself is aesthetical walk. Mr. Yi Zhongtian said that his theory of poetic works is influenced by Mr. Li Zehou’s “journey of beauty”, and that the poetic transformation of Mr. Li Zehou is exactly the truth of Mr. Dezong. Mr. Zong wrote a letter to Guo Moruo saying: “There must be no poetic, poetic mood in our hearts, but not necessarily a poem.”
