盛衰皆因儒——元杂剧命运的一种解读

Rrise and Fall is All Due to Confucianism ——The Understanding of Yuan Opera

元杂剧在经历了短暂的繁盛之后悄然衰微 ,其繁盛有着文人儒士的参与之功。元初封建宗法制度的失承及儒家思想的失落形成了相对的自由环境 ,而其后理学的复归和统治体系的确立 ,反向构成元杂剧发展的桎梏。儒生及儒家思想的沉浮 。

The Yuan opera declined after a short period of time in full bloom. The bloom is part due to the literators and the Confucians. At the beginning of Yuan Dynasty, the lost of the feudalism patriarchal system and of the Confucianism created the comparatively freedom environment. But the reverting of natural science and the establishment of the governance system shackled the development of the opera. How the development of literature and art is impacted by the rise and fall of Confucians and Confucianism is always a complex and controversial issue.
