论晚明笔记小说的文体新变

On Stylistic Changes of Literary Sketches in the Late Ming Dynasty

在明代随着笔记小说的丰富积累及出版业的繁荣,不少小说家在笔记小说的文体上进行诸多尝试,体现出笔记小说发展中求新、求变的一面。晚明笔记小说在编撰形式上多采取丛编、汇编与增补、摘录的形式,将前代和同时代的作品进行重新分类编辑。张丑的《名山藏广记》则突破性地以史书体例来结构小说。此外,“笑话”创作形式的变化和叙议结合的风格,“小品类”笔记小说“娓娓道来”的叙事风格、清新自然的语言、个性化的内容,《续耳谭》“以简御繁”的叙事策略,都是值得注意的文体现象。

With the accumulation of literary sketches through generations and the coming of the publishing industry's boom,many fictionists made various attempts to make stylistic changes and embodied innovations in the development of literary sketches.For literary sketches in the late Ming Dynasty,the series,compilation,supplement,and excerpt were usually used in writing and previous and current works were reclassified and reedited.For example,the book Ming Shan Cang Guang Ji by Zhang Chou is a fiction creatively structured with historical records and cases.Besides,remarkable stylistic phenomena include the creation form change and narrative-argument integration of"jokes",the vivid narrative style,fresh and natural language,and individualized content of"opusculum-type"literary sketches,and the"simplification"narrative strategy of Xu Er Tan.
