摘要
明清市井题材小说中诗词占有大量的篇幅。有的体现了诗教的功能,但诗歌这种文体的真正功用并不在于宣扬道德伦理,所以许多诗词无法真正融入小说作品;有的成为那个时代文人融入世俗社会的标志,依然渗透着功名意识和内心深处的经世热情;而有的则表露了文人艳羡科举成功之后富贵荣华的虚幻梦想。这些小说中的诗词表现了文人的生活世相及心态日渐与市井同化,他们的努力和抗争能够提升民族品格,但他们的退守则是必须淘洗的糟粕。
Verses took up considerable space in marketplace novels of Ming and Qing Dynasties. Some of these verses reflected the function of poetic education, but the actual function of poetry does not lie in the advocacy of ethics. The verses which took up considerable space could not really be in harmony with the works; instead, they only existed outside the plots of the works and became decoration for the works. Some verses became symbols for the men of letters of that time to enter common society, and they still bore consciousness of fame. And some other verses only revealed their illusory dream of envying the great honor and wealth after the success of imperial examination. Men of letters ought to be the ones who carry on the Confucian traditions, but the vexes in the works demonstrated the assimilation of the unique life style and philosophy with the ordinary people. Their efforts and struggle can be promoted to be the nation＇s characters, but their retreat is the dross in the nation＇s characters that must be rejected.
