当代中国台湾地区社会剧创作的拓展与深化

The expansion and deepening of creation in Contemporary The Taiwan region social drama

20世纪80年代以来,中国台湾地区(以下简称台湾地区)社会剧接续现代祖国大陆与台湾地区话剧的创作精神,体现出强烈的现实关怀。从早先着重民俗风情批判,到后来的社会批判,再到后来的政治批判,它逐步深入当代台湾地区社会现实,标志着当代台湾地区社会剧创作的拓展与深化。然而,当戏剧成为社会政治斗争的工具而丧失艺术审美时,则又提醒人们,戏剧不能为现实关怀或社会政治批判越俎代庖,它必须通过受制于戏剧艺术内在必然性的审美创造——"审美之维"来实现。

Since the 1980 s,social drama in China’s Taiwan region(hereinafter referred to as "Taiwan region") has been paying high attention to real life,which carries forward the philosophical pursuit of most dramas in Taiwan and mainland.Early on,its drama creation focused on criticism of social customs,and then followed by social criticism and later political criticism.Its exploration into social reality brings out broader themes and in-depth social issues,showing the broadening and deepening approach of Taiwan’s drama creation.When alarmingly,drama is deprived of its aesthetic functions and becomes a tool for political conflict,one should be aware that drama cannot turn into a substitute for social and political critique or care for real life.Instead,it is an aesthetic creation,which should be subject to its intrinsic inevitability of theatrical art.
