歐陽修是北宋一代文宗，他在文學史上的地位，來自於他所帶領的古文運動之成功及身體力行地創作了許多優秀的詩文作品。從這些作品中，歐陽修莊重正義的形象顯而可見，但在他的詞作中，有一部分所反映出來的風格卻十分的婉轉纏綿，與詩文作品有極大的差別。前人認為此乃小人構陷歐陽修的偽作，不管是否如此，不能否認的是，這些詞作反映出歐陽修的部份形象，與他之前的詞家相較，不論內蘊以及技巧上，都有極大的進步。除了這些被認為是偽作的作品之外，歐陽修的詞作在各個時期的風格也有所不同，這些作品意境頗為闊大，對於後來的詞家有相當大的影響，因此前人認為歐陽修的詞作具有承先啟後的地位。基於此，本文希望藉由歐陽修詞學思想的探討，進一步瞭解其詞分期的風格，並確立他在詞史上的地位。

Ou-yang Siou, a distinguished litterateur of Northern Song Dynasty, played an important role on Chinese literature history, because he had successfully led the ancient style prose movement and had earnestly written many outstanding works. From these works, Ou-yang Siou’s image of solemeity and justice could be noticed obviously, but some works in his lyrics revealed a extremely euphemistical and affectional style which was enormously different from the style of his poetic and prosaic works. Some scholars of former times claimed that these lyrics were fabricated by mean literators to harm Ou-yang’s reputation; in spite of whether so, these lyrics did irrefragably reflect Ou-yang Siou’s practical image. To compare with other lyricists beforehand, no matter in the connotation of lyrics as well as in writing lyrics skill, he had made a gigantic progress. Besides these lyrics were considered fabrications; the style of his lyrics at every stage was different. These works with profound meaning had quite tremendous influence on the afterwards lyricists; thus, Ou-yang Siou was thought by the past people to be one who set a new course in Chinese literature while inheriting from the past simultaneously. Accordingly, I hope by means of this study on Ou-yang Siou’s lyrics approach to understand his lyrics style at every stage, and to establish his monumental status in lyrics literature history.
