摘要
王骥德是晚明著名的戏曲理论家,在戏曲研究中他一直被人们作为吴江派的主将而分析研究,但是从他的《曲律》中可以看到,王骥德不但赞赏汤显祖的词采,批评沈璟的鄙俚,而且在具体的戏曲理论方面也和沈璟有很大的不同。针对这些"反常"现象,抛开汤沈之争的派别局限,将王骥德放在晚明戏曲转型的大背景下分析可得,王骥德在晚明转型期的曲坛具有独特的意义。他不但推动了戏曲韵律的规范化,而且看到了词采的重要性,使得戏曲向更加典雅化的道路推进。这对于提升戏曲的地位,改变戏曲是小道的命运无疑是有积极意义的。
Wang Jide was a famous dramatic theorist in the late Ming Dynasty. From Qu Lv we can find that he admired the beautiful languages of Tang Xian-zu, but criticized the vulgar of Shen Jing's dramas. Moreover, his dramatic theory is quite different from Shen's. In terms of these abnormalities, it can be found that Wang Ji-de contributed greatly to the reformation of dramas during the late Ming dynasty.
