周邦彦是王國維用心最久、用力最多的一個詞學批評對象。在大約從一九○五年至一九一五年的全部詞學中,王氏對周詞展開了持續五次的評議;它是一個充滿情感糾葛、認知困境而又繁複多變的過程。這一現象,既與周邦彦其人其詞及其被認知評價的歷史複雜性背景有關,而根源所在,則是二十世紀初王氏文化價值觀的複雜變遷。這一個案是詞學批評史乃至中國文學批評史上的罕有現象。它充分表明了歷來對於詞的認知,遠比對詩文複雜;更可從中窺見王氏所開啟的古典文學的現代批評視角,而這是一種曠古未有的文學批評實踐。 Zhou Bangyan is Wang Guowei the most hard-core, most hard-pressed word criticism. In all the Ci-poems from about 1905 to 1915, Wang conducted five consecutive reviews of the Zhou words; it is a process full of emotions, cognitive difficulties and complex changes. This phenomenon is not only related to the background of the historical complexities of Zhou Bangyan’s comments and his cognitive appraisal but also to the complex changes of Wang’s cultural values ​​in the early twentieth century. This case is a rare phenomenon in the history of Ci-poetry criticism and even the history of Chinese literary criticism. It fully shows that the cognition to the word has always been far more complicated than the poetry; it can also get a glimpse of the modern criticism of classical literature opened by Wang, which is an unprecedented practice of literary criticism.
