《焦氏易林》是西汉焦赣所著的一部占筮之书,但其文辞颇有诗歌艺术价值。《焦氏易林》的作者运用易学象思维的方式创作了大量咏物诗,所咏之物林林总总,包括虫鱼鸟兽、植物和无生命之物,与汉代咏物赋相映成趣,渗透着浓郁的生命意识和天人感应的思想,有些作品与宋诗的某些审美取向仿佛相似。焦赣为我国文学史上第一位大量创作咏物诗的诗人。 “Jiao Lin Yi Lin” is a book written by Jiao Gan in the Western Han Dynasty, but its diction is quite poetic. The author of “Jiao’s Yi Lin” created a large number of chant poems with the style of Yi Xuexiang’s thinking. The chant of his poems is endless, including insects, birds, animals, plants and inanimate objects. Rich sense of life and the feeling of man and nature, some works seem similar to some aesthetic orientation of Song poetry. Jiao Gan is the first poet in the history of Chinese literature to create chant poems.
