摘要
孝子万里寻亲的文学书写在明清之际至清代出现高潮,为理解清代思想史上的道德严格主义提供了文化观念与文学生态的分析视角。以碑传为代表的精英叙事传统以孝道推动叙事逻辑,孝子被塑造为义无反顾、以孝感人、淡泊名利的道德楷模。小说、戏曲等通俗文学则以传奇性的冲突推动叙事逻辑,彰显出被压抑的声音、留守者的遭遇以及更深远的社会问题。碑传叙事通过孝道凝聚社群的身份认同,进而形塑了清代严苛的道德伦理规范。小说、戏曲中情与理的冲突、对社会问题的揭示以及对寻亲之意义的反思,则可以使读者重审以孝道为核心的道德传统与社会生态,在“不朽”的道德追求之外,探寻一个有情的世界。
The literary writing of filial sons seeking relatives across ten thousand miles reached its zenith in the Late Ming and Qing dynasties,providing an analytical perspective of cultural concepts and literary ecology for understanding moral rigorism in the history of Qing ideology.The elite narrative tradition,represented by stele biographies,anchored the narrative logic in filial piety,and the filial son was portrayed as a moral model—resolute,emotionally moving,and detached from worldly gain.Popular literature such as novels and dramas,on the other hand,employed legendary conflicts to drive the narrative,highlighting suppressed voices,the encounters of those left behind,and more far-reaching social problems.Through filial piety,elite narratives forge communal identity,which in turn shaped the strict moral and ethical norms of the Qing dynasty.Through the conflict between emotion(qing情)and reason(li理),and by probing the very meaning of the“filial quest”,novels and drama invited readers to reexamine the moral tradition and social ecology centered on filial piety,and to explore a sentient world beyond the pursuit of immortality.
