论祁彪佳《远山堂曲品》之“艳品”——兼论“骈俪派”戏曲的发展

On “Yan Pin” of Qi Biaojia’s Opera Criticism of Yuanshantang——On the development of “Parallelism school” drama

祁彪佳《远山堂曲品》首次将“艳品”引入戏曲品评体系,并于“艳品”中首提“骈俪派”。实质上,“艳品”中收录了大量“骈俪派”曲作,但却有其收录的标准。“骈俪派”戏曲因语言重骈偶,多用典不宜搬上舞台曾被诸多曲论家所抨击,而祁彪佳独辟“艳品”一类专论“骈俪派”创作,是与强化“骈俪派”创作审美意蕴、突显其戏曲语言理论、提高“骈俪派”的地位有关。此外,祁彪佳还于“艳品”中表述了对“骈俪派”戏曲发展的看法。

For the first time, Opera Criticism of Yuanshantang written by Qi Biaojia introduced “Yan Pin” into the drama evaluation system and introduced the “Parallelism school” in “Yan Pin” which contains a large number of “Parallelism school” drama with special standards for its inclusion. Due to the overemphasis on confrontation and allusions of language features, the “Parallelism school” drama has been attacked by many opera theorists. But Qi Biaojia created the “Yan Pin” category to discuss the “Parallelism school” drama to strengthen the aesthetic implication of the “Parallelism School”, highlight its theory of opera language and improve the status of the “Parallelism school”. In addition, Qi Biaojia also expressed his views on the development of the “Parallelism school” drama in “Yan Pin”.
