汤显祖临川四梦与莎士比亚传奇剧之梦幻描写的比较研究

A Comparative Study on the Depiction of Dreams and Fantasies in the Four Dreams by Tang Xianzu and the four Romances by Shakespeare

汤显祖的临川四梦和莎士比亚的传奇剧都以"传奇"为名,其中都包含不可或缺的梦幻描写。针对这一现象,对二者的梦幻描写进行了系统的比较,并从艺术构思的层次上挖掘这一艺术特色的成因,旨在探究形成这一巧合的深层根源。

The Four Dreams by Tang Xianzu and the four romances by Shakespeare are both named ＂chuanqi＂ in Chinese, and they both contain indispensable depiction of dreams and fantasies. With a view to such a phenomenon, this thesis makes a systematic analysis of such depiction in these plays and tries to explore the formation of such a feature from their artistic conception, in the hope of revealing the deep roots that contribute to this coincidence in dramatic creation.
