明清易代与江南文学版图之重构

在明代至清代康熙前期,苏州无疑是整个江南地区文学创作和活动的中心。明末清初,杭州和常州的文学得到了较大的发展,在康熙中后期以来与苏州形成了鼎立的局面。江南其他地区的文学发展,在明清两朝也各自有着不同程度的变化。江南地区的文学版图在清代得到重构。这一局面的出现与明清易代有着根本的关系。

17世纪以降中日“脱夷”思想的形成与影响

明清鼎革之后,中日两国围绕着“华夷之辨”而展开“脱夷”思想的建构。一方面,清统治阶层通过构建“华夷一家”而消弭“华夷之辨”的紧张性,为其统治中国提供了学理依据;一方面,日本江户学人则视中国内地发生了“华夷变态”,并由此塑造“日本为中华”的优越论。这两种似同实异的“脱夷”思想更间接影响了西方“民族观”在近代中日的传播与演变。换言之,近代中日两国对西方“民族”观念的不同接受历程,正是明清鼎革后中日“脱夷”思想在近代的回响。

宿山:明清杭州的天竺进香及其香市

天竺分称上天竺、中天竺、下天竺,既指天竺山,又指天竺寺。在明清两代,普陀因观音而成为天下佛教名山,引得全国信众前去“朝海”;而杭州天竺因观音而名闻遐迩,进而引得信众前来“宿山”。从本地日常的烧香,到越境进香;从朝山、朝海,再到宿山,诸如此类的宗教仪式及其转向,无不说明明清民间信众的宗教信仰更趋广泛,形式也更加多样。因进香而形成的“香市”,既是宗教与经济的结缘,更是一个流动的商业市场。香市既促进了区域性市场网络的形成,又扩大了人们的社会交往,进而成为杭州的一处城市人文景观。

明清小说情节涉医描写的叙事意义

医学与叙事关系密切,中国古代小说有诸多涉医描写,在故事中发挥重要作用,成为情节展开的叙事动力。《金瓶梅》中的李瓶儿、《红楼梦》中的秦可卿之死,情节结构呈现因果链条,但前者显露、后者隐微;而不少明清小说的涉医情节是由巧合和偶然行为组合而成,出人意料的情节发展往往是某种观念的图解。生老病死是人的生命历程,也是小说常见内容,涉医叙事在小说中意义重大。

“体用排偶”与明清制义的文体特征

“制义”是明清科举考试中经义文体的正式名称,“八股文”则是对经义文体的俗称。明代官方正式文件从不称其科举文体为“八股文”,明代的经义文集一般不以“八股文”为书名,“八股文”一词不能准确、全面揭示明清经义文的文体性质和特点。《明史·选举志》指出“体用排偶”是明代制义主体部分的文体形态特点。“排偶”包括排比和骈偶,骈偶类包括两扇、四段、六股、八股、十股、十二股、十六股等。在排比类中存在着一种股数为奇数的排比形态,如三股文、五股文、七股文、九股文,可统称为“奇股文”。奇股文的存在应引起我们重视,明清制义文体的本质与特点需要重新认识。决定明、清制义“排偶”部分文体形态的,是题目的句型结构特点和语义结构特点。当然,作者的修辞理念和兴趣也对其“排偶”设置产生影响。明代成化之后,八股形态在“排偶”诸形态中占据主流地位,这既与它契合传统文章学理念有关,也与科举考试的标准化进程是相呼应的。
