《金瓶梅》对潘金莲形象的重写——兼论潘金莲形象的矛盾

Recharacterization of Pan Jinlian in Jin Ping Mei——the Contradictions in the Character Pan Jinlian

《金瓶梅》保留了《水浒传》中潘金莲淫妇、恶妇的一面,同时由于劝诫世人的目的,将潘金莲淫妇、恶妇色彩大大加强了。但是作者改写潘金莲时态度又是复杂的,不惟对她给予了一定的理解,甚至在某些地方还把她美化成颇能赏心悦目的"佳人",从而在某些地方造成潘金莲身上"佳人"和"恶妇"的对立,多情和淫荡的分裂。

Jin Ping Mei retaines Pan Jinlian as an immoral woman,jealous wife in The Outlaws of Liang Shan,as to admonish the common people,Jin Ping Mei redepicts Pan Jinlian much more immoral and jealous than she is in The Outlaws of Liang Shan.But the manner that the author rewrites Pan Jinlian is complex,not only has he given some understanding to her,but also turns her into a quite pleasant beautiful woman sometimes.This contradictory manner leads to the Literature failure of Pan Jinlian:she is a beautiful woman while a jealous wife,full of affection while lascivious both.
