论《桃花扇》侯李爱情结局的处理得失

Gain and Loss of the Final Results about the Love between Mr.Hou and Miss Li in The Peach Blossom Fan

《桃花扇》侯李爱情结局突破了中国古典戏曲小说的大团圆模式,符合创作主旨,深化了主题,升华了爱情,值得肯定。但是,过于突兀的安排,影响舞台演出效果、与情节发展存在矛盾、有违人物自身性格的发展,应正视这些问题,给予客观评价。

The final result of the love between Hou Chaotsung and Li Hsiangjun in The Peach Blossom Fan breaks the traditional happy ending popular in Chinese ancient operas and novels,which is positively accepted because it conforms to the creation aim,deeply explores the theme,and upgrade human love.However,the problem like the unexpected arrangement does affect the stage performance effect since it goes against the logical development of action as well as the development of the characters’ personalities,and this is what should be paid much attention to and be evaluated objectively.
