李渔的喜剧创作及剧作喜剧性探因

Li Yu's Comic Creating and its Cause of Comic Characteristics

李渔是中国戏曲史上第一个自觉地致力于喜剧创作且数量最大、成就最高的作家 ,这种自觉的戏剧行为与他对戏剧艺术的理解、他的人生态度以及他的剧作的服务对象有着密切的联系。李渔虽然身负盖世才华 ,却始终与功名无缘 ,不得不以近于帮闲的身份为达官贵人演剧佐觞 ,在悲剧的人生面前 ,他却以喜剧创作自娱娱人。他对现实不满却不能与所厌恶的社会现象一刀两断 ,因而 ,形成了思想上的深刻矛盾。这种思想矛盾导致了创作中的喜剧精神 。

Li Yu is the first dramatist devoted to comic creation consciously who writes most and achieves highest in the Chinese dramatic history.His conscious dramatic action is linked closely to his understanding of dramatic arts,his living attitudes and his drama's audience.Although he is born talent,Li Yu has not got any rank in the power and been famous,and has had to help the officials and high ranks to perform as a helper.So he can only write comedy to entertain others in the face of his own tragic life.Because of his disappointment to the reality and his not escaping from his disliking social phenomenon,he is quite contradictory in his thought.The contradiction in his thought results in his comic spirits in his writing,therefore he creates unparallelable comic effect by using all sorts of artistic means.
