论中国的献人供妖与义士除害型故事——《西游记》与印度文学比较研究之二

Chinese Stories Describing the Sacrifice of Human Beings to Demons and the Elimination of Evil-doers by Chivalrous Heroes

中国古典章回小说《西游记》中的印度文学成分,有些涉及到故事类型,如孙悟空和青毛狮子怪的闹天宫,高老庄的乔装降魔,朱紫国的除妖保贞,陈家庄的献人供妖与义士除害等。本文拟从《西游记》的陈家庄故事说起,就中国的献人供妖与义士除害型故事和印度文学的关系,做“X 和 Y”式的初步探讨,并力求进行一些深一层次的比较研究。请读者批评指正。

This paper discusses the evolution of such story patterns,focusing on the question of how they were influenced by similar Indian stories as well as Buddhist ideology and culture.
