试论明末短篇话本小说中的军事色彩与对男性气质的重塑

On the Military Colors and Remolding of Masculinity in the Short Stories of the Ming Dynasty

明末战乱频仍的社会现实极大地促发了话本小说家们的军事热情,战乱题材的介入与军事见解的表达使得这一时期的话本小说呈现出强烈的军事色彩。军事色彩的增强势必会对男性气质的书写提出新的要求。被"三言"所推崇的文人气、女子气于此时遭到了贬低,而一直被贬低的武人气或者说男子气概则受到了追捧。男性气质书写上的一系列变化受制于时代语境的变迁,这一观点可从本文的论述中得到充分的印证。

The social reality of frequent warfare at the end of the Ming dynasty greatly stimulated the military enthusiasm of script novelists. The involvement of the war themes and the expression of military opinions gave the novels of this period a strong military color. Military color enhancement made new requirements for the writing of male temperament. The literary atmosphere and the woman temperament at this time respected by the'San Yan'have been belittled while the male temperament is sought after. A series of changes in the writing of masculinity are subject to the change of the context of the times,which is fully illustrated in this paper.
