奇异·虚幻——中国古典悲剧情节的审美特征

Weirdness and Visionariness——Aesthetic Features in plots of Classical chinese Tragedies

中西方戏剧家、理论家都重视悲剧情节的设计和安排。中国古典悲剧情节尤重于奇异和虚幻。“奇异”使悲剧富于传奇的特征;“虚幻”包括梦幻、仙幻和鬼幻,体现了中国古典悲剧的独特色彩,而其表现出来的“圆满”之意又与西方戏剧理论家关于悲剧的精神不悖。

Designing and arranging of tragedy plots are emphasized by both chinese and western dramatic and theorists. In classical Chinese tragedies,particular emphases are laid on weirdifying and visionarifying of their plots. Weirdi-fying enables these tragedies to have some legendary features while visionarifying, including illusionifying,fairifying and ghostifying,gives them a unique flavor which is really chinese, Furthermore, themes containing' happy end' in these plots coincidently go with western dramatic theorists idea about tragedies very well.
