论唐代“史化小说”的形成和发展

On the Shaping and Development of the Historical Stories in the Tang Dynasty

小说本属子部 ,到初唐刘知几将其归于史部之后 ,唐代出现了一系列补充正史的“史化小说” ,包括刘的《隋唐嘉话》(又名《小说》)、阙名《大唐传载》、李肇《唐国史补》和高彦休《唐阙史》等 ,既有对小说史学意义的纯粹化 ,但也有对小说趣味的追求 ,表现了和以唐传奇为代表的文学小说不同的文体风貌。最后 ,在孙光宪的《北梦琐言》里 ,呈现了史化小说与文学小说相合流的倾向 ,在北宋初将中国小说带入了一个新的发展阶段。

The Stories (Xiao Shuo) belonging to philosophical works were changed to historical works by Liu Zhiji in the early Tang. After this, a series of historical stories were written, including Liu Su's Shuitangjiahua (Xiaoshuo), an anonymous author's Datangzhuanzhai, Li Zhao's Tangguoshibu and Gao Yanxiu's Tangqueshi, which displayed different styles from literary stories. At last, a merge trend arose in Sun Guanxian's Beimengshuoyan in the early Song.
