论明清时期读者与通俗小说评点的关系

摘要

In the Ming and Qing dynasties,readers were closely related to the critics comments on popular fictions:the former (especially the readers from lower classes)were greatly involved in pro-moting the latter. Those critiques and comments played an important role in the communication be-tween the fiction authors and their readers. In addition,the critics comments revealed the purpose, the characteristics and the structures of the fictions. The trend of jiatuo(假托,some critics posed as celebrities)in their comments on popular fictions in the Ming and Qing dynasties also had close rela-tionship with readers. It is safe to say that the reader was an important factor in the formation and de-velopment of the comments on popular fictions in that period.%　　明清时期，读者与通俗小说评点的关系相当密切。读者尤其是下层民众读者的介入推动了明清通俗小说评点的普及；在小说作者与读者之间，评点起到重要的沟通作用，为读者揭示了小说的创作主旨、人物塑造特点及小说文法；明清通俗小说评点中出现的假托风气也与读者关系紧密。可以说，读者是明清时期通俗小说评点形成与发展的重要推动力。
