《三国演义》人物塑造诸说述评

Discussion about the Character Makings of the Three Kingdoms

《三国演义》是中国第一部长篇章回小说,它的出现标志着中国小说又进入了一个新的发展阶段。对于《三国演义》人物塑造的研究是整个《三国演义》研究中谈得较多且较深入的课题之一,因为这一课题关系到如何评价这部古典名著的价值问题。然而,六百年来,关于《三国演义》在人物塑造上所取得的成就却众说纷纭。本文主要对其中具有代表性的观点做了述评,并兼及典型问题的再认识,我们认为要判定一部叙事文学作品在人物塑造上"是否取得了成就,取得了多大成就",只需用"是否塑造了成功的艺术典型"这一准绳去判断即可,无需再分"××化"的标准。

In its research work,the main and profound subject is its main character＇ analysis. However,in the periond of 600 years,there have been various opinions about its achievements of character making. In this paper, we mainly discuss some representative remarks and further argue about some focusing problems. A successful narrative literature work is only judged by its artistic .archetypes and needs no other standards to evaluate.
