本文以織女為研究對象,從歷時性梳理織女故事在唐前發展脈絡,進而論述〈郭翰〉一文對唐前織女神話傳說中所衍發互文性的情形,以見其顛覆傳統、新創織女形象的意圖及其在小說史上的意義。全文先從發展史展演唐前攸關牛女神話傳說對織女形象的型塑,其敘寫內容與範式主要有二種典型,此二型奠立織女故事基模流傳不輟,甚至形成乞巧風俗。到了唐代,張薦撰有《靈怪集.郭翰》一文,雖取材自牛女故事,然而其敘寫織女形象之延異,迥異流傳中的故事基型。二論〈郭翰〉變異情節書寫內容與意圖,以昭揭其對傳統織女故事之傳承與新變。三論〈郭翰〉對織女故事之承變意義,分從形式結構、內容結構及變異主題論其與唐小說之異同。最後揭示〈郭翰〉悖逆顛覆織女形象在小說史之意義有三,其一從形構言之,應合唐小說婉轉敘寫、增長篇幅、詩文並現、添加曲折情節等敘寫手法;其二從內容結構言之,承繼女仙下凡、愛情遇合離散、凡男女仙終必離索、風雅贈物書寫、凡男婚配不順之書寫;其三從主題言之,織女對情愛主動追求呈示唐人滂薄的生命氣性。
