方凤一生跨越宋元两个朝代。南宋灭亡之前，游学杭州，向陈宜中上《上陈丞相书》，提出严控江防、暂分藩阃、善用人才以及具体的军事部署等建议，体现出热心时务、专于事功的永康学派风格。南宋灭亡之后，隐居浦江，参与主持浦江地区月泉吟社盟诗等遗民活动，成为元初江南地区的遗民诗人代表。与此同时，方凤积极接引后学，引导柳贯、黄溍、吴莱等婺州后学在新朝的成长，促成了婺州文人群体由遗民群体向区域性文人集团的转变。

方凤的文学成就以诗歌为主，其诗按主题内容可分为故国之殇、登览纪游、咏史怀古三大类，艺术风貌也因主题的不同呈现出多样性，但总体来看，方凤的创作最接近江西诗派。在诗学理论方面，方凤主要有四个主张：推崇“清新”、“苍劲”的诗歌风格，表现出唐宋诗并举的融通态度；强调“诗由心生”，认为诗人作诗应关注现实、本于人情，体察、抒发人世间最普遍、最广泛的情感；提出“穷而故在”，结合儒家雅正的诗学观，对传统“诗穷而后工”之说进行了新的阐释；继承苏辙等人的“游历养气”说，主张“游历探奇”，但也重视学养、天资、时命等其他因素的重要作用，为北宋以来“内游”与“外游”之争提供了更全面的思考。

柳贯、黄溍、吴莱是元代中后期诗文名家，三人同为方凤门生，方凤的诗歌创作与诗学思想对三位学者有深刻的影响，不过因性格秉性、生平经历、学术旨趣的不同，三人的继承与发展又体现出显著的差异性：黄溍以“心统性情”说为哲学依据，提出“诗生于心”，完善丰富了方凤的“诗由心生”说，并以“天地之心”阐释“发乎情，止乎礼义”，确立诗歌思想情感要以儒家仁义精神为本这一基本原则，在这一原则基础之上，他也肯定了诗歌表达诗人个体之心的功能。柳贯的“诗出于心”说，尽管也遵守“发乎情，止乎礼义”的原则，但其论述更加突出作家的主体地位，在抒发个体情志方面走得更远，对于诗歌艺术的特性也有清晰的认识。吴莱秉性端严，以道义自任，其“心术”论显示了严肃雅正的文学创作观，在三位学者的诗论中复古色彩最为浓厚；游历与文学的创作关系，是婺州两代文人都予以关注的诗学话题，柳贯与吴莱对方凤“游历探奇”说的接受主要落实于实践中，在理论方面成果有限，黄溍吸收永康学术传统，将游历说与求真务实的治学理念相结合，发掘了“游”对实现“写实”的文艺美学的关键作用。此外，因金华三先生与月泉吟社有深厚的渊源，月泉吟社的诗学传统在柳、黄、吴等人的文学活动中也留下了痕迹：黄溍发扬了月泉吟社诗评所推崇的“清新苍劲”的诗歌风格，进一步归纳出了“清圆古硬”的诗学审美；柳贯则受方凤等人的影响，以诗歌创作实践延续了江西诗风。尽管吴莱的诗歌风貌在三位作家中最具艺术个性，但是在创作上，他与柳黄二人一样，都继承了吟社诗人苦吟的创作精神，柳贯通过诗歌展现士人沉沦下僚、哀苦穷愁的生存困境，而黄溍、吴莱则坚持严谨认真的创作态度，力避陈言，体现出“为艺术”的苦吟。

柳贯、黄溍、吴莱、戴良、王祎等婺州后学的崛起以及对方凤的推崇，最终确立了方凤婺州“风雅之宗”的地位。但方凤对婺州诗歌的直接影响其实是有限的，他的真正功绩在于通过月泉吟社等活动，在婺州一带兴起吟咏创作之风，为后学的文学成长创造了一个良好的文化环境，客观上促进了婺州学术风气的转变。

  Fang Feng's life strides across the Song and Yuan dynasties.Before the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, He were studying in hangzhou, submitted a written statement to Chen yizhong who was the Prime Minister of imperial court, offered several proposals about strictly control the river defense, temporary division, making good use of talents and military deployment strategy, reflecting the style of scholars of Yongkang school. After the fall of the Southern Song Dynasty, He went back the Pujiang, hosted adherent poet activities like Yue Quan Poetry Club,became the representative of the poets in Jiangnan area in the early Yuan Dynasty. At the same time, Fang Feng educates students actively, guided Liu guan, Huangjin, Wu lai grow up in the new dynasty, made the wuzhou adherents group become a regionally scholar group.

    Fang Feng's literary achievements are mainly in poetry. According to the theme, His poems can be divided into three categories: mourned of the motherland, recorded Journey and sigh history. The artistic style of poetry are various and mainly close to the style of Jiangxi Poetry School.On the theory of poetics, Fang Feng had four points of view: Advocating fresh and vigorous style, show a conciliatory attitude about Tang poetry and Song Poetry; Proposing qiong er gu zai, using the Confucian theory of literature to explain the traditional Poetics theory Poverty forms poetic excellence; Emphasizing the poetry comes from heart, and think poets should pay attention to reality and express universal feelings in poetry. Inheritting the travel to foster moral character of Su Zhe, but also valuing the pivotal role of knowledge, talent, life span, times, provides a comprehensive reference for the debate about studying at home or travelling.

Liu Guan, Huang Jin and Wu Lai are famous poets in the middle and late Yuan Dynasty. All three are Fang feng’s students. Fang Feng's poetry creation and literary thought had a profound impact on them.However, due to the differences of personality, life experience and academic purport, the inheritance and development of the three men show significant differences: Huang jin’s poetry comes from heart is based on the theory of mind unifying temperament, perfected and enriched Fang Feng's theory of poetry comes from heart,and he use the Heart of heaven and earth to explain control emotion with manner, establish the principle that the emotion of poetry should be based on Confucian spirit. On the basis of this principle, He also affirmed the function of poetry to express the poet's individual heart. Liu Guan’s poetry comes from heart also followed the principle control emotion with manner, But his statement highlighted the dominant position of writers, go further in expressing individual emotions, and he also had a clear understanding of the artistic characteristics of poetry. Wu Lai is serious in nature and full of moral spirit, His theory about mind showed a serious and elegant view of literary creation. Among the three scholars' poetics, the color of retro of his theory is the strongest. The relationship between travel and literary creation was highly concerned by two generations of literati in Wuzhou. Liu Guan's and Wu Lai's acceptance of the theory of traveling and exploring strange things is mainly implemented in practice, but had limited achievements in theory. Huang Jin absorbed Yongkang's academic tradition, combining the theory of travel with the scholarly principles of seeking truth and being practical. It explores the key role of "tour" in the realization of "realistic" literary aesthetics. Besides, these three scholars has a deep relationship with Yue Quan Poetry Club. The tradition of poetics of Yue Quan Poetry Club had also left traces in the literary activities of Liu, Huang, Wu, etc: Huang Jin carried forward the style of "fresh and vigorous" advocated by Yue Quan Poetry Club, He further sums up the poetic aesthetics of "fresh, rounded, ancient, hard" ; Liu Guan, influenced by Fang Feng and other poets, continued the style of Jiangxi Poetry by his own creation. Although Wu Lai's poetry style has the most artistic personality among the three writers, in creation, He was the same as Liu Guan and Huang Jin, all of them inherited the creation Bitter singing spirit of the poets of Yue Quan Poetry Club: Liu Guan's poems show the living predicament of scholars' downfall and poverty, However, Huang Jin and Wu Lai insisted on the strict and serious attitude of creation, avoided used language, and express their bitterness of "for art".

Because the rise of new generation of scholars in Wuzhou and their esteem to Fang Feng, Fang Feng's position as the "the ancestor of poetry in Wuzhou" was established finally. But Fang Feng's direct influence on Wuzhou's poetry was limited, His real contribution was rising a trend of poetry creation, and created a good cultural environment for a new generation of literati’s literary growth, promoted the change of academic atmosphere in Wuzhou objectively.
