清代珠江三角洲戏剧演出的社会文化探析

Analysis on the Social Culture of Drama Performance in the Pearl River Delta in the Qing Dynasty

清代珠江三角洲的戏剧演出与其时社会背景、社会生活、文化艺术等息息相关。研究表明:珠三角戏剧演出广泛出现在节日庆典、神诞庆典、建醮、打醮、迎亲、祝寿、中举、宴请等场合,全方位渗透到民众的日常生活之中;清代粤剧内容的流变,经历了早期对外来剧种的模仿、借鉴,到清中叶以降略显地域与时代特色的创作、改编,再到晚清语言和内容的本土化的全过程;戏剧艺术的繁荣促进了雕塑、绘画等其他艺术的多样化进程,这些艺术的发展为戏剧提供了更多超越时空进行展示的舞台,两者相得益彰。清代珠三角戏剧演出与戏剧文化研究具有丰富的社会价值和历史价值。
