英文摘要 | It has been claimed that there is no way to understand the meaning of fengci in the modern term fengci xiaoshuo ("satiric fiction") through either its etymology or traditional generic distinction. Did concepts of satire in Chinese literary genres exist prior to modern times? And if such concepts did exist, were they expressed only in terms of fengci? This article traces traditional conceptions of satire to their origins and offers a selective overview of the development of the satiric mode in classical poetry and prose up to Tang times. Satire was in fact one of the dominant modes in early elite literature, and was justified by both moralistic and expressive theories. In ideal terms, this satire was supposed to be pedagogical and corrective, intended for the public good rather than private ends; it was supposed to adopt moderation, indirection, and a gentle tone. Of course, the reality sometimes departed quite far from the ideal. Some critics strongly criticized frivolous uses of wit and humor. They also worried that works that were supposedly admonitory may have inadvertently encouraged the reader to indulge in extravagant behavior, misconduct, and even vice. In the reading and composition of satire, moralistic hermeneutics reigned supreme. The dominant trend of moralistic criticism nudged writers in the direction of adopting an alegorical framework, and acculturated readers to look for hidden meanings. |
