文徵明以人品、詩、文、書、畫五藝精絕，成為明代中葉江南文苑之盟主，而畫畫之名尤盛。雖與畫畫成就相較，詩名稍遜，但是，他的詩作，除了明代已刊一千多首詩之外，今人又從他的書畫作品上，經辨偽存真之後，得二千六百八十九首詩，堪稱詩作豐富。 　　古人原以抒情、言志為詩歌創作之本旬，文徵明尤以一空依傍、自抒懷抱不同於明代詩壇一般的擬古剽竊字句，斲傷真性情。本研究即從文徵明詩所寫的題材、使用的技巧和最後形成的風格作一番探究。 　　研究結果得知，他書寫的題材相當豐富，計由七類加以探討，使用的技巧則樸實自然，因而形成沖淡和古雅的風格。由於他宦途不達，未和翰林文士相唱和，詩名較不顯，尤其被書畫之名所掩。然而深究其詩，實足以探得主盟江南文苑的文人藝術家豐富的人文情懷。本文大綱如下： 壹、前言 貳、題材 （一）題畫詩 （二）詠懷詩 （三）詠物詩 （四）詠史詩 （五）田園詩 （六）紀遊詩 （七）閒居詩 參、技巧 （一）語言的繪畫性－意象 1.意象的塑造 （1）遣詞 （2）設色 （3）用典 （4）譬喻 2.意象的結構 （二）語言的音樂性--節奏 1.平仄 2.用韻 肆、風格 （一）沖淡 （二）古雅 伍、結論
