摘要

本論文結合敘事傳統與戲曲表演之發展脈絡，探討明清傳奇中解難報恩主題之「贈寶」情節如何影響文本中的空間建構。通過全文討論得知，解難報恩主題之「贈寶」情節在明清傳奇中的演化過程，既有繼承自「柳毅傳書」故事的神話題材，也能應用於歷史題材；在敘事模式上，運用複製、綰合、新添、移植、填補等技巧，善用龍宮、蜃樓、天界、謫仙降生等超現實空間的建構，透過與現實人間的對照呼應、交錯運用，推新敘事架構，進一步開展主題思想︰「贈寶」既能解難報恩，也能測試人心，由此可見其與戲曲文本空間建構的關聯性，及其與傳奇文本題材內容、敘事結構、主題思想之間的互涉，也影響戲曲舞臺表演朝向寫實化美術發展。最終探討其諭示現實人生之思想內涵，以及所反映明清崇尚物質文化、著重生活情趣之社會特質。本論文有別於以往「以物件貫穿關目」的研究角度，而是從「戲曲文本的空間建構」進行探討，研究文本不限於案頭劇本，擴及舞臺演出本，兼顧文學與表演層面，希冀從敘事傳統中「贈寶」情節的研究體系來看，或者從明清傳奇主題式研究的角度來看，均能提供學界新的研究成果以及有別以往的學術貢獻。

This paper investigates the traditional opera texts from the perspective of ＂spatial construction＂ and combines narrative tradition with traditional opera performances. Specifically, it explores how the difficulty solution and retribution of ＂ZengBao＂ plot in MingQing Chuanqi affects the space structure in the text. The research results indicate that the evolution of the ＂ZengBao＂ plot has both mythological themes inherited from the story of ＂LiuYi ChuanShu＂ and can also be applied to historical themes. In terms of narrative structure, it uses copying, combining, adding, transplanting, filling, changing and other skills, deriving the new narrative structure, and developing further the theme concept--＂ZengBao＂ can not only solve difficulty and pay retribution, but also test people's hearts. Consequently, the interrelationship between ＂ZengBao＂ and the texts, narrative structure and thematic thoughts also affects the development of drama stage performance towards realistic art. Finally, this study examines the ideological connotation of real life, and the social characteristics that reflect the material culture and the delight of life in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The originality and importance of this research are distinctive from the previous research perspective of using ＂objects＂, rather than ＂space construction of traditional opera text＂ through crucial plots. Additionally, the research is not limited to ＂table scripts＂, but extends to the stage performance, and takes into account both the literary and performance aspects as well. It is expected that this paper can possibly provide new research results and academic contributions that are different from the past in terms of the perspective of the research system of the ＂ZengBao＂ plot in the narrative tradition, or from the perspective of the thematic research of MingQing Chuanqi.
