话本小说的叙事模式及对现代小说叙事的影响——以“二拍”为例

On the Narrative Patterns of Chinese Classical Vernacular Fictions and Their Influence on the Narration of Modern Fictions——Taking Er Pai as An Example

作为古典短篇白话小说的巅峰之作,“二拍”在叙事艺术方面极具特色,集中体现在其篇首诗、篇中诗和篇尾诗一体化的叙事布局,白话与诗词协同叙事的模式以及显性和隐性叙事相结合的叙事方式。而现代小说中的全知叙事视角、完整连贯的叙事框架、民间化的叙述方式等都体现出对“二拍”叙事模式的传承与发扬。在中国叙事传统日渐式微的背景下,现代小说的创作可以回归“二拍”的叙事传统,承续白话小说叙事传统的实践和经验,拓宽中国文学的本土发展路径。

As the most influential work in the history of classical vernacular short stories,Er Pai is featured by salient narrative arts:its narrative structure includes the integration of the opening poem,conjunction poem and the ending poem,the cooperation of vernacular narration and rhymed narration,and the combination of overt narration and covert narration. Modern Chinese fictions inherit from the narrative patterns of Er Pai in terms of omniscient narrative perspective,complete narrative framework,popularized narrative style and etc. Modern fictions can revive narrative traditions of Er Pai,draw on the experiences of classical vernacular fictions and explore the development path of Chinese literature.
