唐代传奇文学与道教关于“人欲”的冲突

The Conflict Argument of "Desire" between Tang Romance Studies and Taoism

唐传奇是中国文言小说成熟的标志。作为道教文化的宣传者,唐传奇吸收道教的文化底蕴,一方面充分运用自身的优势阐释道教思想,另一方面展现了自身的独特生机。道教作为本土宗教,其理论与唐传奇紧密结合,道家深奥的学问借助唐传奇的文学体裁得以通俗易懂地展现。唐传奇与道教有着多重关系,除了互利的方面外,道教具有禁欲思想,而作为文学,唐传奇具有人文情怀和启迪作用,二者在宣传"人欲"方面存在冲突。

Tang Romance Novels are symbolized the maturity of Chinese classical novels. As the wide- spread of Taoist culture, Tang Romance absorbed Taoist culture. And on the one hand they also make full use of their advantages to present Taoism, by showing people their unique life that lived in Tang Dynasty. Taoism, as an indigenous religion, its theory combined with Tang romance stories, too. With the help of the tang literary genre, it is easy to understand the Taoist esoteric knowledge and conception. Even Tang romance stories and Taoism have multiple relationships, they still have conflict about ＂Desire＂： Taoism has thought of abstinence, while in the literature of Tang romance stories it has more humanity and inspi- rations.
