摘要

「道沿聖以垂文，聖因文以明道」一語出自劉勰《文心雕龍．原道》篇。其中，「道」、「聖」、「垂文」、「明道」這些語詞的定義是什麼？它們各自代表怎樣的意涵？這是本篇所要探討的。如果不是透過所謂的「聖」，那麼，所垂的文將可能是怎樣的面貌或造成甚麼後果？如果沒有透過所謂的「聖」，是否「道」就不得其「明」？劉勰在「道沿聖以垂文，聖因文以明道」一句中，說明「聖」所扮演的媒介和轉化角色，並且強調其重要性。至於「經」，則是反映古代中國先聖們的智慧，不僅與個人修身、政治教化等息息相關，同時也是劉勰建立文論的重要準則。本篇主要運用先秦儒家、道家文獻和《文心雕龍》本身，並以若干秦漢以降、劉勰之前的學者相關言論為旁證，研究「道沿聖以垂文，聖因文以明道」的實質內涵，把「道」、「聖」、「經」、「文」之間相因相成的關係聯貫起來，論證劉勰實有卓絕的睿智和獨到的眼光。
