明清儒学的发展与其时小说思潮嬗变

The Development of Confucian Doctrine and Change in the Trend of Novels in Ming and Qing Dynasties

传统儒学在明清时期的变革与进展,亦即理学的发展与演变,对其时中国的方方面面都有或大或小或浅或深的影响,尤以对小说的影响为突出和显著。它显著地体现在理学与小说思潮的关系上,这就是理学复辟与小说尚理思潮、阳明心学与小说浪漫化思潮、泰州学派与小说世俗化倾向;乾嘉学风与小说炫耀才学风尚。作为中国传统文化中极重要的两个系统,明清儒学与明清小说的这种特定联系,成为中国古代文化发展史的重要现象,具有丰富的文化底蕴和文学理论蕴涵,也是传统儒学统治中国古代文化的有力说明。

The change and development of traditional Confucian Doctrine in Ming and Qing Dynasties made certain influence to all social aspects, especially to novels, which was obviously embodied in the relationship between Neoconfucianism and the trend of novels. As two important systems in Chinese traditional culture, the specific connection has become an important phenomenon in the developmental history of ancient Chinese culture and forcefully proves the fact that traditional Confucian Doctrine governs ancient Chinese culture.
