从《王娇鸾百年长恨》到《王娇》

From The Hundred Years' Regret of Wang Jiaoruan to Wang Jiao

朱湘叙事长诗《王娇》直接由话本小说《王娇鸾百年长恨》产生而来。从话本到现代叙事诗的体裁转换中,主题、性格与情节均得以深化和提高,渗进了“五四”新的时代精神。在艺术上,《王娇》也充分发挥了艺术形式的美学功能,而不局囿在狭义的抒情中,这在二十世纪新叙事诗美学追求上取得了瞩目成就,值得借鉴。

Zhu Xiang' s long narrative poem Wang Jiao directly originates from the colloq uial novel The Hundred Years' Regret of Wang Jiaoruan.The change of the literature forms fr om the colloquial stories to the modern narrative poem enables the theme,characters and plots to be deepened and improved,imbued with the new spi rit ofMay the Fourth.Artistically,Wang Jiao also brings the aesthetic function o f artistic forms into full play without the limitation to the expression of one' s feelings,which achieved an attractive attention to the literal world i n the respect of seeking aestheticism of the new narrative poem in the 20th century and of which we c an draw on the experience.
