宋元话本对市民价值观的艺术引领与塑造

Artistic Guidance and Shaping of Citizens’Values with Song-Yuan Scripts

宋元话本作为一种通俗文艺形式,兴盛于瓦舍勾栏,流行于街衢巷尾,除了娱乐大众给市井百姓以精神享受之外,在传播历史文化、宣传儒家思想和伦理价值观念等方面,对市民阶层也起着重要的引领和再塑造作用。直至当代,话本小说所提倡的积极进取、反对拜金享乐等传统美德对和谐社会、生活价值的构建依然具有正面的启示意义。

As a form of popular literature and art,Song-Yuan scripts flourished in such show places as urban theatres and rural stages,and was popular in the streets and lanes.In addition to entertaining the public with spiritual enjoyment,Song-Yuan scripts also played an important role in guiding and reshaping the citizens’cognition through diffusing historical knowledge and promoting Confucianism and ethical values.Up to the present age,traditional virtues advocated by Song-Yuan scripts,including being active and enterprising and opposing money worship and pleasure pursuit,still have positive enlightenment significance for the construction of a harmonious society and the value of life.
