《聊斋志异》的叙事策略

Narrative Strategy in Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio

在《聊斋志异》的创作中,蒲松龄有意无意选择历史性话语进行叙事,流露出用虚构叙事接入历史叙事的企图。从现代叙事学理论来看,《聊斋志异》在叙事话语的选择,"异史氏曰"对"太史公曰"的刻意模仿,花妖狐魅的虚构叙事空间和叙事的寓意等四个方面体现出"以文入史"的叙事策略。搜罗散落在《聊斋志异》花妖狐魅的虚构叙事世界里的生命痕迹,可以窥见蒲松龄吁唏感慨、聊以托寄的内心世界。

In Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio, intentionally or unconsciously PU Song-ling chose the historical discourse to narrate, and manifested his attempt of turning fictive narration into historical narration. This paper explores Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio from the perspective of modern narrative theory. Its narrative strategy is turning fictive narration into historical narration, which is manifested in four aspects： the choice of narrative discourse, the painstaking imitation of ＂Mrs. YI-SHI said＂ from ＂Mr. Sima said＂, and the narrative space and the narrative moral of monsters and demons. Thus PU Song-ling＇s heart which is full of grief and indignation can be peeked through collecting his life traces in the fictive narrative world.
