《水浒传》“农民起义”说与《荡寇志》的学术命运

20世纪50年代以来,《水浒传》主题研究最为主流的观点是“农民起义”说。这种“权威”观点不仅对《水浒传》研究造成了许多负面影响,还严重殃及《荡寇志》的学术命运,使这部小说长期遭受意识形态歧视,不能接受正常的学术关怀。在新时期学术研究理性、多元发展的大背景下,欲使《荡寇志》研究在规模、质量等方面跃升新的境界,要务之一就是要放弃《水浒传》研究中“农民起义”说的一元化统摄力,回归文本,开展多元阐释。

The Notion of Peasant Uprising on Water Margin and the Academic Fate of Dang Kou Zhi

The notion of peasant uprising on Water Margin has dominated the academic studies concerning the theme of the novel ever since 1950s.An "authoritative" viewpoint as such has not only exerted much negative impact on the research of Water Margin per se,but has on the academic fate of the novel Dang Kou Zhi written in the Qing Dynasty,resulting in discrimination against the latter over a long period of time.In order to cater to more rational and diversified development of academic research in the new era,it is of utmost importance to challenge the hegemonic position of the peasant uprising doctrine,and to bring justice to the academic research on Dang Kou Zhi.
