论朱素臣《文星现》传奇的主题意蕴

The Thematic Implication of ZHU Su-chen's Wen Xing Xian

以两条爱情线结构全剧的《文星现》传奇却呈现出超越爱情的思想内涵,这种独特的主题意蕴,既受人物原型至情特性的制约,又是晚明文化思潮的遗响,也是剧作者自我安慰的虚幻梦想。此剧在探索情理关系时,以对至情人格的推崇掩盖了理对情的制约,但是无法掩饰唐、祝二人在仕途上的失意和无所成就的缺憾。这说明情理关系探索的进一步突破还有待于社会制度的变革。

Wen Xing Xian, which contains two love clues, presents the main idea beyond love. The unique theme is under the influence of character prototype and the advanced cultural trends during late Ming dynasty. It is also the author＇s fantasy dream he comfort himself. In the exploration of relationship between emotion and reason, the opera praises highly the sincere personality and ignores the influence of reason. However, it doesn＇t conceal the frustration in the career of TANG Bo-hu and ZHU Yun-ming. It is clear that the breakthrough in the exploration requires the change of the social system.
