论宋人小说伎艺的题材选择和加工

On the Theme Choice and Processing of the Novels in Song Dynasty

文言笔记小说和杂著是宋代话本小说题材的主要来源。题材的选择和加工由小说伎艺人承担,宋代的书会才人是否参与了话本的创作很值得怀疑。小说伎艺人既是话本的加工者又是演出者,一方面使得小说伎艺反映生活迅速、生动活泼,另一方面又阻滞了小说伎艺的发展。

Literary Chinese novels and essays are the main source of the novels in Song Dynasty.The novels theme choice and processing are carried out by the novelists.It is doubtful whether the literati involve the novel s creation or not.Novelists are novels performers as well as writers,which on one hand make the novels vivid and interesting,on the other hand impde the development of novel.
