摘要
苏州古城的前身为春秋时期吴国都城。公元前514年,伍子胥受吴王阖闾之命筑城,开设水陆城门各8座,其中阊门巍峨雄伟,成为苏州古城的重要标志。阊门在不同时期具有不同的象征意义,春秋时期是吴国西破强楚而成就霸业的政治象征,汉魏六朝时期是苏州的城市地标和东南大都会的象征,中唐时期成为苏州城市盛衰的历史见证,明清时期是苏州经济繁荣的代名词。历代描写苏州阊门的诗文甚多,从中能够感受阊门的独特地位,感悟苏州古城的沧桑变迁,领悟历史文化名城苏州的丰富内涵、独特魅力。
The predecessor of the ancient city of Suzhou is the capital of Wu kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period. In 514 B. C,while building the city by order of the king of Wu He Lu,Wu Zixu,a famous important official of Wu,set up eight city gates on land and water respectively. Among all city gates,the lofty and grand Chang Men was especially famous and became the symbol of ancient Suzhou which over different times has been endowed with different symbolic meanings,such as the political symbolism of accomplishing hegemony after the triumph over Chu kingdom during the Spring and Autumn Period,the city landmark and the metropolitan in South-east China in the Wei and Jin Dynasties,the witness of rise and fall of Suzhou in the middle period of Tang Dynasty and a synonym of economic prosperity in Suzhou during Ming and Qing Dynasties. During past years,there has always been large number of poems and papers describing and recording Chang Men. By studying the literature,we can not only identify the unique position of Chang Men and learn the vicissitudes of history of Suzhou for over 2500 years but also comprehend deeply the rich connotation and unique glamour of the famous cultural city.
