《西游记》中的道教思想研究

Taoist Thoughts in the Journey to the West

《西游记》作为中国古代四大名著之一,在中国古代文学史上起着举足轻重的作用。因为其故事的人物设定,情节安排都有着强烈的佛教色彩,所以也常常被学界作为宗教对文学影响的典型案例来分析。但实际上,《西游记》并不是仅仅只反映了佛教思想内涵,其内容中对于其他宗教思想的体现依然为现世研究作出了极大的贡献,道教就是其中之一。本文旨在通过道教思想在文中的具体表现,分析道教思想对于古代文学产生的影响以及原因,体现道教发展所导致的社会变化。

As one of the four famous works in ancient China,Journey to the West plays an important role in the history of ancient Chinese literature,which is often analyzed as a typical case of religious influence on literature due to its strong Buddhist color in the character setting and plot arrangement.But in fact,the Journey to the West does not contain the Buddhist thought only,it also makes great contribution to the study of other religions such as Taoism in its connotation.The purpose of this paper is to analyze the influence and causes of Taoism on ancient literature through the concrete manifestation of Taoism in the novel,and to reflect the social situation caused by the development of Taoism.
