科场命运对蒲松龄创作求财致富题材作品的影响

The Influence of Pu Songling's Destiny of Imperial Civil Examination on the Works with the Theme of Seeking Wealth and Becoming Prosperous

蒲松龄痴迷科举考试,一生共参加了十次乡试,但皆以失败告终,至死没能跨过秀才的门槛。科举不遇带给蒲松龄最直接的后果是终生不易的生活窘迫困苦,因此,他把摆脱这种经济状况的愿望融入《聊斋志异》的创作,为自己这样的读书人设计了种种求财致富的方式,借助这些作品传达自己内心深处潜隐的脱贫意识,从中“获得一种假想的满足”。

Pu Songling was infatuated in the imperial civil examination and had made attempts in the imperial exam at the provincial level for over ten times, but all ended in failure. He had not got the scholar all his life, which led directly to his unchangeable poverty. Therefore he began the creation of Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio with the aim of casting the economic predicament, leading those kinds of intellectuals as him many other ways of seeking wealth and becoming prosperous, expressing the inner idea of casting poverty through these works so as to obtain a kind of imagined satisfaction.
