夺胎换骨
原意为脱去凡胎俗骨而换为圣胎仙骨,后比喻在诗文创作中援用前人作品的意思但能用自己的语言去表达而另立新意的一种技法。强调师法前人而不露痕迹并能有所创新。
Express the Ideas in Earlier Literary Works in a New Way
This term, which figuratively means to replace the flesh and bones of an ordinary human being with those of an immortal, is used to describe a literary technique in which a writer uses his own words to express new ideas while quoting those from earlier works. The emphasis is on borrowing from the past without showing any traces, yet forming something new in the process.
引 例
然不易其意而造其语,谓之换骨法;窥入其意而形容之,谓之夺胎法。(释惠洪《冷斋夜话》卷一)(然而不改变前人的意思而换用更恰切的词句,叫作换骨法;从前人作品中领悟到作者的某个意旨而予以深化和充分发挥,叫作夺胎法。)
Huangu is to use more appropriate words without changing the meaning of earlier writers; Duotai is to comprehend a certain meaning of an author and then deepen it and express it more fully. (Shi Huihong: Evening Talks at Lengzhai)
