《聊齋志異》中,蒲松齡多以「離魂」作為主題故事,〈阿寶〉乃其中之一。男主人公孫子楚經歷兩度離魂、經歷死亡,最後重返陽間,一切緣起皆離不開執著,其中曲折是其他離魂故事無法比擬的。加上,孫子楚為追求阿寶而兩度離魂,一反過去女子為得到理想愛情而離魂的傳統。蒲松齡以「癡」貫穿〈阿寶〉故事,把其對感情、禮教、功名的執著全寄託在「癡」字之上;以圓滿的結局勉勵雖屢遭挫敗,但仍鍥而不捨的自己。觀孫子楚汲汲追求阿寶的經歷,有如蒲松齡一生鍥而不地參加科考,孫君如願娶得阿寶又考中進士,蒲松齡最終也得以補為歲貢生,皆有完滿之結局。因此,本文以〈聊齋志異.阿寶〉故事為中心,以蒲松齡筆下的孫子楚,為求得所愛而離魂,論蒲松齡對感情、功名、人生的執著。
