摘要
文,介乎道、艺之间,上以通道,下即为技.弈本为技,黑白相间而文成,依乎天理,遂成天地之文.弈与文,在发生学意义上的相通,是为情,在终极境域上的相遇,即为道.然而,他们所使用的媒介又是不一样的.文以"言"为媒介,立言、成象、得意、通道,构成了言、象、意、道的话语表达方式.弈被称为"手谈",也就是说,这是一种不借助于言语的特殊的言说方式.所谓"得其步骤、得形、得意、会神",作为弈艺演进之路,构成了一种"无言之美".
Literature, which mediates between dao and art, is capable of soaring the realm of dao as well as falling into the category of technique. Chess-playing is originally a technique, whereby a pattern (the primordial meaning of the Chinese character 'wen' which has subsequently assumed the meaning of 'literature') is formed amid black and white piecesa structure of the Earth and the Heaven out of the law of Nature. Therefore, the game of weichi and the making of literature, just as they are genetically congenial, are nevertheless nothing but techniques; but, when they finally converge in ultimate sphere, they become the embodiment of dao. However, literature adopts quite different means as compared with weichi, for that matter. The former uses 'language' as a medium to establish discourses, to create imagery, to signify, and to translate dao, thus constituting a characteristic system of discourse, imagery, signification and dao. The latter, figuratively termed as 'hand-talking', is a special way of speaking without the language. The way of chess-playing, succinctly described as 'mastering its procedures and its pattern in order to realize its meaning and embody its spirit', creates a 'non-verbal beauty'.
