摘要
哪吒闹海故事源于宋辽时期佛教"那吒析骨还父析肉还母"与"大圣那吒太子屠龙"的传说.明代,哪吒身份由佛教护法神过渡到道教灵珠子,故事相应呈现出佛道交融的特点.清代,场上改编使哪吒闹海故事的宗教性被逐渐削弱.用中国叙事文化学的方法分析,可见哪吒闹海故事主题经历了由宗教至世俗的演变,反映出佛教中国化过程中佛教故事文学性的增强,以及佛教教理日趋衰微对故事世俗化的推进.
Abstract
The story of"Nezha Conquering the Dragon King"originated from the legend of Nezha returning the bones to his father and the flesh to his mother,as well as the legend of the Great Sage Nezha slaying the dragon,during the Song and Liao Dynasties.During the Ming Dynasty,Nezha's identity transitioned from a guardian deity in Bud-dhism to Lingzhu Zi(a sky pearl)in Taoism,reflecting the fusion of Buddhism and Taoism in the story.In the Qing Dy-nasty,adaptations gradually weakened the religious aspects of the story.Analyzed through the lens of Chinese narrative culture,we can see that the theme of the story underwent a transformation from religious to secular,reflecting the en-hancement of the literary aspect of Buddhist stories during the sinicization of Buddhism,as well as the progression of secularization driven by the decline of Buddhist doctrines.
