中国传统叙事中时间意识的演变

在中国传统叙事中，人物、情节、时间是三位一体的。早期的历史叙事呈现的是历史规律在时间过程中的客观流变，这与中国古典社会的意识形态是紧密联系在一起的；唐以后的通俗叙事中，人物、情节在时间的展开中渗透了浓厚的道德与文化意识，其中不自觉的流露了人们在那个时代的一种怀疑意识；明清以后的长篇叙事却凸现了生命意识与自我意识的觉醒，这恰反映了人意识与时代的藕合。整个中国传统叙事中隐含的时间意识，反映出的是基于中国传统文化内部的一种世界观与意识形态。

On the Evolution of the Time Consciousness in Chinese Traditional Narration

In Chinese traditional narration,characters,time,and plot are closely connected.The early historical narration shows the subjective evolution of historical rules in the course of time,which is in close connection with the ideology in Chinese classical society.In the popular narration after Tang dynasty,the development of characters and plot in time contains a deep moral and cultural consciousness,which shows a skeptical sense of that time.The long narration after Ming and Qing dynasties reveals an awareness of life and self-consciousness,a coincidence of people's consciousness and time.The time consciousness which is contained in the whole Chinese traditional narration reveals the world outlook and ideology based on Chinese traditional culture.
