“中華思想文化術(shù)語”，是濃縮了中華哲學(xué)思想、人文精神、價(jià)值觀念等的以詞或短語形式固化的概念和文化核心詞。它們是中華民族幾千年來對自然與社會(huì)進(jìn)行探索和理性思索的成果，積淀著中華民族最深沉的歷史智慧。本文選登“中華文化術(shù)語”詮釋和英文翻譯，使中國人更加理解中國古代哲學(xué)思想，也使世界更加了解中華思想文化。

詩 言 志

Poetry Expresses Aspirations.

詩歌表達(dá)作者內(nèi)心的志向?！爸尽敝冈姼枳髌分兴磉_(dá)的作者的內(nèi)心志向、思想，兼及情感因素?！霸娧灾尽弊钕纫娪谌寮医?jīng)典《尚書·堯典》，是中國詩論的“開山綱領(lǐng)”（朱自清語），經(jīng)過歷代詩論家的演繹，其蘊(yùn)涵不斷得以豐富，并由此確立了中國文論關(guān)于文學(xué)特征的基本觀念。

A poem expresses aspirations in ones heart. Zhi （志） here means the authors aspirations， emotions， and thoughts. The concept of “poetry expressing aspirations，” first seen in the Confucian classic The Book of History， was hailed（被贊譽(yù)）by Zhu Ziqing as the “manifesto”（宣言，聲明）of Chinese poetry. Enriched by poetry critics through the generations， it was later established as a basic concept in Chinese literary criticism.

Poems come from aspirations. An aspiration in heart is an aspiration； an aspiration in words is a poem.（Preface to The Book of Songs）

詩 緣 情

Poetry Springs from Emotions.

詩歌緣于詩人內(nèi)心的情感。西晉陸機(jī)《文賦》提出，詩人情動(dòng)于心，而后才有詩歌創(chuàng)作?！霸娋壡椤闭f與“詩言志”說互為補(bǔ)充，強(qiáng)調(diào)文學(xué)的抒情性與審美特征，表現(xiàn)出魏晉時(shí)代文學(xué)觀念的變遷。因此，“詩緣情”也成為中國古代關(guān)于詩歌與文學(xué)本質(zhì)看法的另一代表觀點(diǎn)。

Poems originate from the poets heart-felt feelings. Lu Ji of the Western Jin Dynasty said in “The Art of Writing” that a poet must have a surge of feeling deep in his heart before he could create a poem. This view， complementing the concept of “poetry expressing aspirations，” stresses the lyrical and aesthetic nature of literary works and echoes the evolution of literary tastes during the Wei and Jin dynasties. “Poetry springing from emotions” represents another viewpoint on the nature of poetry and literature in ancient China.

Poetry， springing from emotions， reads beautifully in its form of expression. （Lu Ji： The Art of Writing）

◎人稟七情，應(yīng)物斯感，感物吟志，莫非自然。（劉勰《文心雕龍·明詩》）

（人稟受了各種情感，受外物刺激而心有所感，心有所感而吟詠情志，所有的詩歌都出于自然情感。）

Everyone has diverse feelings， and he expresses his feelings and aspirations in a poetical way when he is stimulated by the external world and his heart is touched. All poems come from natural emotions. （Liu Xie： The Literary Mind and the Carving of Dragons）
