“无事之文”与中国古典白话小说
Liu Jiao
The object of discussion in this book is the so-called "nothing writing" in classical vernacular novels, that is, the "idle writing" that seems to be "superfluous" in the narrative framework of the entire story. These "superfluous" words mainly include two parts: one part is a side narrative that can be determined to have no causal connection with the main storyline, and the other part can be generally summarized as some trivial references and the intervention of the narrator in the narrative. This book takes vernacular novels of the Ming and Qing dynasties such as "The Golden Lotus" and "A Dream of Red Mansions" as examples to illustrate how Chinese classical novels simulate the synchronicity and reality of real life by intricately juxtaposing multiple events and character activities, and connecting seemingly loose fragments of events into a complete story. This book aims to explore a resilient integration model in the narrative structure of Chinese classical novels.
