中国话剧传统研究回顾与反思

A Retrospection of the Study of the Traditions of Chinese Drama

“革命的战斗传统”说、“现实主义传统”说、“启蒙传统”说以及“民族化与现代化相结合”等传统说,是中国话剧传统研究的几种有代表性的观点和重要成果,但其中也存在一些争议和问题。要认识和构建中国话剧传统,就应寻找其赖以确立的历史和理论依据,以求真正贴合中国话剧发展实际。中国话剧传统的形成与现代民族话剧的创造密不可分,后者为前者提供了基本依据和内在规定,前者则可视为后者在历史积淀中的结晶。因此,“创造现代民族话剧”这一晚清以来中国话剧发展的根本趋势与核心追求,可成为考察中国话剧传统问题的基本立足点。

In the study of the traditions of Chinese drama,there are several representative views and important achievements,including the theories of the revolutionary fighting tradition,the realist tradition,the enlightenment tradition,and the theory of nationalization and modernization combined.However,there are also some controversies and problems among these theories.In order to understand and construct the tradition of Chinese drama,and to fit its development,we should find the historical and theoretical basis.The formation of the tradition of Chinese drama is closely related to the creation of modern national drama,which provides the basis and internal provisions for the former,while the former can be regarded as the historical result of the latter.Therefore,the making of modern national drama,as the fundamental trend and the major pursuit of Chinese drama since the late Qing Dynasty,becomes the basic foothold for examining the tradition of Chinese drama.
