新编历史剧创作对传统史剧观的突破

传统史剧观遵循“历史真实”和“古为今用”两大原则,在历史剧创作中影响深远。“历史真实”原则束缚了创作主体的发挥,造成创作手法的单一。“古为今用”原则导致历史剧创作的主题内涵比较狭隘,限制历史剧艺术的发展。20世纪80年代以来,传统史剧观的“古为今用”原则在表现知识分子复杂内心世界中被成功突围,作家的主体意识在系列新编历史文人史剧中彰显出来,历史剧创作主题向文化、人性、审美多维度展开。郭启宏的“传神史剧论”与大量表现复杂人性的历史剧突破了传统史剧观下人物塑造的“二元对立”模式,使人物形象走向复杂人性的刻画与深层心理的挖掘。罗怀臻的新史剧观认为,历史的虚构和假设也可以作为历史剧创作的素材和依托,由此开辟寓言史剧创作的新路径。
