“传奇”生成的“活化石”

The Living Fossil of the Legend

《赵飞燕外传》是从“史传”的母体里孕育出来的第一篇具有“传奇”文体特征的作品,是研究“传奇”生成的“活化石”。在它身上既刻有“史传”到“传奇”蝉蜕的清晰的“演进痕迹”,又散发着“胚态形”传奇作品所特有的野性的文化气息,从文化品格角度而言,堪称传奇系列中里程碑式的作品。

The Life Story of Zhao Fei -yan, bred from the historical works, is the first work with legendary style, so known as the living fossil of the legend. The clear proceeding trace from the history to the legend and the wild culture feature that the legendary work possesses in the embryonic phrase rated the work as a milestone in Chinese legendary literature.
