研究民间戏曲的珍贵资料——《四平戏传统剧目》述评

On the Precious Materials of Folk Operas:A Review of the Traditional Theatrical Piece of Siping Opera

《四平戏传统剧目》是在民间老艺人口述本的基础上整理、编纂的一套丛书,收录了11个以口授心传的方式在民间传承了数百年的演出本。这些作品大都源自宋元南戏和明清传奇,较多地保留了民间创作的原始风貌。由于没有公开出版,印数非常少,这套丛书在国内外都难得一见,是研究弋阳腔、四平腔和闽北风俗民情的宝贵资料,值得珍惜。

Traditional Works of Siping Opera is a series of books sorted and compiled on the dictation of the old local artists basically, which has included 11 performing scripts that have been passed on by means of oralism for hundreds of years. Most of those works are derived from the South--opera in Song and Yuan Dynasties and Legends in Ming and Qing Dynasties, which have maintained the original local features. Due to its unpublicized publishing and its little issue, the series is hard to find at home or abroad, so it＇s precious and valuable materials to study Ge-yang Tune, Siping Tune and the North Min customs.
