“穷苦之言易好”是中国古代文学思想中相当普遍地存在着的一种见解。中国文学史大量的文学创作实例证明了这个见解的实在性。进化心理学的理论资料和人类集体无意识的心理事实证明这个见解的深刻性。文学创作表现人类“穷苦”一类的消极心理是具有多方面的积极意义的。 “Poor words easy” is a very common view in ancient Chinese literature thought. A large number of Chinese literary examples of literary creation proved the reality of this opinion. The theoretical data of evolutionary psychology and the unconscious psychological facts of human collective prove the profoundness of this view. The negative psychology of literary creation in the category of “poor man” has many positive meanings.
