哪一个“晴雯”更可爱——脂批本与程高本比较之二

Which Image of Qing Wen is more Lovely?

晴雯是《红楼梦》中丫鬟形象中作者最为钟爱的一个,也是读者喜欢的人物之一。她是作者所列红楼十二钗仅有的两个副钗之一。曹雪芹设计的晴雯的主体性格是毫无奴颜媚骨,大胆反抗,嫉恶如仇的性情。这个人物也就因此获得了自身的性格逻辑,她的心理、语言、行动也必将沿着这一逻辑展开情节,向前发展。在《红楼梦》的传抄过程中,因为版本差异,造成了晴雯的形象扭曲变形。究竟哪一个晴雯才是作者苦心孤诣要提供给读者欣赏的典型形象呢?依据程甲本、程乙本、脂批本各自不同的文本原貌进行分析,得出的结论是,就《红楼梦》现存版本而言,脂批本并非是完美无瑕的,程高本也不是没有可取之处。
