《朝野佥载》的岭南书写

Lingnan Writing of Chaoye Qian Zai

《朝野佥载》共20则故事记载唐代前期的岭南,包括自然景观和社会风俗两方面。在自然景观方面,《朝野佥载》主要记载岭南地区或习性怪异或善通人情的动物,此外,还涉及植物和矿产资源等内容;在社会风俗方面,《朝野佥载》反映唐时岭南的官员、制毒、饮食、丧葬等社会内容,这些皆具有浓厚的地方色彩。而《朝野佥载》多以岭南故事的创作动因为:一是岭南因开发迟缓而保留原始森林的榛莽以及独特的风俗为作品提供许多的素材;二是张鷟因贬谪而得以亲身体验岭南的奇风异俗;三是受笔记小说广见闻、资谈笑等创作意图的影响,张鷟的《朝野佥载》较多地书写岭南。
