作为一部“博极群书,独创新见”的诗话作品,《扪虱新话》自问世之后就很少得到主流社会的普遍认同,最终不得不消失于当时诸如《苕溪渔隐丛话》《诗人玉屑》等主流类书当中,这不能不说是件憾事。因而探究《扪虱新话》不为当时社会所容的原因,将有助于认识陈善的为人以及《扪虱新话》的历史价值。 As a poetic work with “Boke Bookstore and Original Creation”, “New Story of Sick Louse” seldom gets the general approval of the mainstream society after it came out, and finally it has to disappear into the poems such as “ Words ”“ poet jade ”and other mainstream class books, which can not be said is a pity. Therefore, exploring the reason why the “new word about Sick Louse” is not accepted by the society at that time will help us to understand the historical value of Chen Shan’s human being as well as the “New Story of Sick Louse”.
