明清江南坊刻小说插图叙事的审美表征及其文化意义

The Aesthetic Character and Cultural Significance of the Illustration Narrative in Novels Printed in Jiangnan during Ming and Qing Dynasty

作为明清时期小说插图发展的成熟形态,江南坊刻小说中的插图叙事在汲取建阳小说插图成功经验的基础上,实现了表意范式和叙事模式的深度转换,它进一步强化了文学空间意义的生成,完善了插图的"预叙"功能和"溢出"效应,构建了文本、插图与评点的叙事"共谋"形态,体现出富于地域特征的"文人化"倾向,从而成就了小说走向文学经典的成功范例。

As a mature form of illustrations in novels in Ming and Qing Dynasty,the illustration narrative in novels printed in Jiangnan absorbed successful experiences of Jianyang novels,and realized the deep conversion of ideographic paradigm and narrative mode.It further reinforced the production of the literary spatial significance,consummated the ＂pre-narrative＂ function and ＂spillover＂ effects,constructed the ＂complicity＂ form among the text,illustration and commentary,and reflected the ＂literati＂ tendency full of the geographical characteristics,which made novel a successful example of literary classics.
