吟咏是我国传统诵读古典诗文特有的方式,上世纪以来,由于特殊的政治、文化因素及吟咏自身的先天不足,以至日渐衰微。华锺彦先生以其特有的学术敏感,最早意识到吟咏之学的重要性,成立学术组织,开展田野调查,撰写学术论文,开课讲授吟咏知识,为古诗词的吟咏学奠定了理论基础,更为吟咏的普及做出了贡献,在国内产生了巨大的影响。 Chanting is a peculiar way of traditional reciting classical poetry in our country. Since the last century, due to special political and cultural factors and the inherent deficiencies of chanting itself, the chanting has been declining gradually. Owing to his unique academic sensitivity, Mr. Hua Zhongyan first realized the importance of chanting, established academic organizations, conducted field investigations, wrote academic dissertations, started chanting teaching of chant, and laid the theoretical foundation for the chanting of ancient poems. For the popularity of chant made a contribution, has had a tremendous impact in the country.
