摘要
賈仲明是元末明初重要的雜劇作家，現存可考的雜劇有五本，其中《鐵拐李度金童玉女》及《呂洞賓桃柳昇仙夢》二本屬神仙道化劇，《荊楚臣重對玉梳記》、《蕭淑蘭情寄菩薩蠻》、《李素蘭風月玉壺春》三本屬愛情劇。對於北曲雜劇有繼承，也有創新，他主要以北曲來創作，大體遵守元人一本四折，一人獨唱的體製。 賈仲明劇作的重要特色如下：《昇仙夢》開雜劇南北合套之先聲。《金童玉女》的第一折有四支插曲及歌舞，第四折有插曲【青天歌】及八仙隊舞，均具特色，在曲牌聯套之外，增加變化。《蕭淑蘭》的題材內容異於傳統，女有情，男無意，對禮教思想有相當程度的挑戰。《玉梳記》的妓女顧玉香，語言尖銳，形象鮮活，人物刻劃極可稱道。《玉壺春》以末本演妓、士、商關係，凸顯李斌重愛情輕功名的形象。《玉梳記》及《玉壺春》兩本演書生妓女的愛情戲，強調妓女守節並以娼妓封為夫人作結，是明初此類題材的重要特色，反映明代初期理學影響下的思想現象。 賈仲明名重一時，不論題材內容，體製規律，其劇作的新變處，是值得注目的。

Jia Zhong-Ming was an important playwright of zaju, the poetic drama set of music, at the end of Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. Nowadays it has been attested that he was the author of five plays. Among the five, Tieguai Li Du jintong yunü and Lü Dongbin taoliu shengxianmeng are religious plays; Jing Chuchen chongdui yushu ji, Xiao Shulan qingji pusaman and Li Sulan fengyue yuhuchun are love plays. These plays not only followed the form of Beiqu 'Northern music' and but also innovated. That is, Jia Zhong-Ming's plays are based on the format of Beiqu in Yuan Dynasty, consisting of four acts called zhe with one character having the singing role in each zhe. The characteristics of Jia Zhong-Ming's works are as follows. First, Shengxianmeng initiates the amalgamation of Beiqu and Nanqu 'Southern music.' Second, the first act in jintong yunü has four interludes and chorus; in addition, its fourth act has one more interlude, qingtiange 'the blue sky song,' and dances performed by Baxian 'eight fairies.' In addition to the north-south package, i.e., the amalgamating northern and southern tunes into a structure, it brings more varieties outside the original form. Another play Xiao Shulan describes that the female lead falls in love with the male lead but the latter does not have feelings toward the former, whose subject matter is different from traditional ones. In particular, this work challenges the traditional Chinese norms and etiquette to a large extent. The actress, Gu Yuxiang in yushu ji, whose language is aculeate and whose image is vivid, is perfectly depicted by the writer. Yuhuchun emphasizes that the hero Libin treats romance as more important than fame by describing the relationship between the actress, the intellectual, and the merchant. The above two works, yushu ji and yuhuchun, describing love between the intellectual and the actress, emphasize that the actress values her chastity and ends up with the actress’s being wife of the official. This is the main characteristic of these works during early Ming Dynasty, reflecting that they are affected by the philosophical thoughts of lixue 'neo-Confucianism' at that time.
