Distinctiveness and Spontaneity
亦作“兴会标举”。“标举”有“标明、突出”之义，后来引申出“鲜明、高超、独特”等众多含义。“会”是会聚，“兴会”是创作主体为外物所激发的创作状态及由此产生的丰富的心理感悟，是文学创作时灵感勃发而自然生成的浓厚兴致与意趣。“标举兴会”指文学创作中由“兴”所生发的丰富的心理感悟与情感特征，亦指作品中所呈现的浓厚而强烈的兴致与意趣。“标举兴会”既是一个文学批评术语，也是一种创作理念，它与崇尚自然、反对造作的写作态度相对应，推崇创作者的才华与激情，强调直觉基础上的自由想象和灵感勃发状态下的自由创造。
Also “spontaneity and distinctiveness.” Biaoju (标举) originally meant “to mark out or stand out.” It later extended to mean “superior, unique, distinctive, and outstanding.” Hui (会) means “to get together.” Xinghui (兴会) refers to one’s passionate creative state and rich perceptions sparked by an object, and keen, naturally-inspired interest and charm in literary creation. The term, as a whole, indicates distinctive, spontaneous perceptions and emotions in literary creation, and intense interest and charm possessed by literary work. It is both a term of literary criticism and a concept of literary creation. Opposing false sentimentality, the term holds in esteem spontaneity, writers’ talents and enthusiasm, and emphasizes free imagination based on intuition and free creation in a state of bursting inspirations.

A careful examination shows that a poet, when inspired, creates excellent works without knowing it. Such poems will thus become a model for future generations to emulate. …When the poet’s inner feelings interact with the external world, he naturally has the urge to express them.
