主要從接受史角度尋繹歷代對李賀詩作接受的演進歷程，探究其中的若干特徵：諸如接受過中既表現出一種較有規律的起伏 乃至反復，又呈現某種鑒賞和批評上的穩定性和一致性；它既反映時代思潮和文學主流意識在接受過程中的導向作用，也反映了文學鑒賞和批評中的主體意識一旦形成，就會產生一種頗具影響力的歷史積澱；文學創作中的「流行」可以轉化成「經典」，文學鑒賞和文學批評中的個人的愛好亦可衍變成整個社會的「範本」。「範本」一旦形成，便會受到越來越穩定的社會心理支撐而形成定式，具有相對的穩定性，不太容易再受一些文學批評的支配和引導。 在此基礎上，再對這些特徵的產生原因進行理論思考，探討它對當今的文學創作和文學批評的借鑒意義。

The reception process of Li He's poem is investigated from the viewpoint of the reception history, and some characteristics of the process are explored. For example, regular fluctuation and retrogress appear in the reception process, but the comments and evaluations are stable to some extent. Not only the instructive effects of the tidal current and the main stream of literature consciousness are reflected in the reception process, but also the effect of the strong traditional opinion is reflected when it was formed during the process of the literature comments. The "fashion" works can be "classic" and the viewpoint or favor of some critic can be the "sample" for most of the people. Furthermore, the "sample" will be more stable when it was accepted by the society, and it is hard to be changed or directed by the literature comments.
