王韬武侠小说思想探微

On Wang Tao’s Thought of Martial-arts Novels

王韬的武侠小说以乱世为背景,侧重描写了三个方面的内容:一行侠仗义;二为王前驱:三犯上作乱。王韬创作武侠小说与他所处的时代及其政治思想有关。因为生活在战火纷飞的动乱时世,安全没有保障,便萌生了对解民倒悬、救民水火的侠客的幻想。王韬希冀用创作补现实人生之憾,于是带剑长行的侠士不但要行侠仗义,还要完成作者"下马草檄、上马杀贼"的救国英雄梦。望梅未必能止渴,画饼何尝能充饥?承载着作者"救助梦"和"英雄梦"的侠客总是遭遇尴尬:武功盖世的剑客因为填不饱肚子而上山落草,想要为王前驱的侠客大多步了梁山英雄的后尘。王韬的侠客梦最终未能摆脱时代梦魇和人生失意的影响而显得沉重。
