中西悲剧善恶观念之比较

Comparison of The Conception of The Good and The Evil in The Chinese and Western Tragedies

本文对中西悲剧善恶观念进行了比较,认为中国古典悲剧多属于世俗伦理模式,在对善的执著追求和对恶的坚决拒斥中实现善恶分明的意图。古希腊悲剧和以莎士比亚为代表的文艺复兴时期的悲剧,虽然也讲求善恶分明的原则,但她们所包孕的内容几乎没有中国古典悲剧那样强烈的伦理色彩。西方现代悲剧更是大异其趣,否弃颠覆了传统的真、善、美观念,致使善恶界限趋向模糊,却对更高层面上的真、善、美执著的追求。中西悲剧善恶观念的差异,昭示了不同社会历史条件下不同的文化内涵。
