直致 Direct Expression
诗歌的描写或语言直接而不婉曲。致：到，抵达。与南朝钟嵘提出的“直寻”含义接近。钟嵘不满有的诗歌搬用典故，认为诗歌是感于外物、吟咏情性之作，写景抒情应有真切的审美感受，语言表达应当不假雕饰、生动鲜明。唐代诗论家殷璠继承了钟嵘的观点，提出了“直致”，进一步说明诗歌写景抒情应当直接使用质朴率真、明朗自然的语言，传达自己的眼中之美、心中之情。
This term means that the description and language used in poetry should be direct and straight forward rather than implied. Here, zhi (致) means reaching to something. The origin of this term may be traced to the concept of direct search first proposed by Zhong Rong of the Southern Dynasties. He disapproved of the excessive use of allegories in some poems, maintaining that a poem could only be written when a poet was inspired by external objects. Whether describing scenery or expressing his thoughts, the poet should present his sentiments with vivid writing while avoiding the use of rhetoric. Yin Fan, a Tang Dynasty critic of poetry who followed Zhong Rong's view, put forward the term "direct expression," believing that one should use simple, clear and vivid language to describe both scenery and his sentiment.
