论两晋南北朝小说的发展背景

摘要

“Tales of mystery and the supernatural”together with“tales of human”appeared in the period of Jin and the Northern and Southern Dynasties. The reasons for the appearing of these two kinds of novels are:the rulers and upper classes needed certain novels to guide the masses to bow to them;idle talking were in vogue among the scholars during that period of time; besides, the introducing of Buddhism and the development of Taoism also provided new creative elements to the creation of the novels. All these mentioned above had a significant impact on the development of the novels at that time.%两晋南北朝时期的小说出现了志怪和志人小说的分类，其形成原因表现在很多方面，统治者和上层人物需要小说引导世人服从统治，士人心态发生变化，清谈之风的盛行，佛教传入、道教的发展也为小说的创作提供了新的创作元素。这些都为当时的小说发展产生了重要影响。
