假名草子的文体特征与概念构建

The Stylistic Features and Conceptual Construction of the Kanazosi

假名草子是日本文学史上一种重要的文学样式,在日本近世(1603-1867)初期兴起、隆盛、消失,对御伽草子有着较好的继承性,对浮世草子乃至日本近现代小说形成都有很大的影响,在日本文学史上具有承上启下的关键作用。假名草子已有四百余年的历史,但时至今日对其概念的界定仍有诸多论说。本文从时间界限、作品种类与特征、文字载体、目标受众、创作手法五个维度重新构建假名草子概念。

The Kanazosi is an important literary style in the history of Japanese literature,which rose,flourished and disappeared in the Edo Period(1603-1867).It carries on the characteristics of the Otogizosi and has a great influence on the later Ukiyozosi and the formation of modern Japanese novels,forming connection between the preceding and the following of the Japanese literature history.Despite its long history of more than 400 years,there are still many arguments about its concept till now.This paper is to reconstruct the concept of the Kanazosi from the following five dimensions:the time boundary,the types and features of its works,the writing carriers,the target audience,and the creation techniques.
