称心而出,如题所止——从《四婵娟》看洪升的女性意识及其晚年的创作心理

Representation of his Mind the Way his Work Followed——A View of Hong Sheng's Female Consciousness and Writing Psychology in his Late years in Terms of The Four Learned Ladies

《四婵娟》是一组写心杂剧,作者借谢道韫、卫茂漪、李清照和管仲姬四位历史上的才女以抒自己的心魂,对女性作出了不同传统观念的评价,突出其超乎男性的才识,赞颂了以真情为内核的夫妻平等互爱的美满的新型婚姻家庭观,表现出洪升具有现代意义的女性意识,由此亦可揣摩到洪升晚年的创作心理。

The Four Learned Ladies was a series of mind-revealing poetic drama. By telling stories of the four learned ladies in Chinese history, Xie Daoyun, Wei Maoyi, Li Qingzhao and Guart Zhongji, the playwright ex- pressed his anti-traditional personal evaluation about women. In the plays, he highlighted the female characters＇ men-transcending talent and ability and sang praise of the new view of marriage and family which advocated tree- love-based marriage and equality between man and wife, which showed that Hong Sheng the playwright possessed a female consciousness of modem sense. From the above-mentioned, we can surmise Hong＇ s writing psychology in his late years.
