论金圣叹人物性格论的审美心理机制

金圣叹在他的小说评点中认为创作真实性格的根据就在于通过对性格发生条件的模拟内省来求得真切体验。这种以体验为关捩的审美心理机制强调人物个性化的思想,重视人物行为主观动机与态度。这种侧重微观、感性的性格理论尽管避免了把人物的生动性化为一堆社会学标签,但是,它也给他的人物性格理论带来明显的唯心论缺陷与不足。

An Analysis of the Aesthetic Psychological System of Jin Sheng-tan's Creation of the Personalities

In his review of novels, Jin Sheng-tan believes that the basis of creating truthful characters is the imitation and introspection of the conditions determining the personalities so that lifelike experiences can be achieved.

This theory of personalities that highlights the micro aspect and sensibility avoids categorization and emphasizes individuality, yet it also mirrors the evident defects and insufficiency of the idealist school.
