近代前期小说最引人瞩目的创作趋势之一,就是侠义小说的盛行。侠义小说归顺皈依的主题模式、驯化的侠义英雄类型和以君臣人伦为主要内容的忠义观念等创作特征,体现了19世纪小说家的道德救世情结。他们在侠之归顺皈依的描写中,掺和着整饬纲常的希望,表现出通过道德调整达到补天自救的社会文化心理。 One of the most striking creative trends in early modern novels is the prevalence of chivalric novels. The theme of the conversion of chivalrous novels, the domestication of chivalrous heroes, the concept of loyalty and righteousness with the main content of monarchy and human relations as the main content reflect the complex of moral salvation of nineteenth-century novelists. In the description of the return of man to man, they blend in with the hope of perverting the commonplace and show the social and cultural psychology of attaining the self-help of heaven through moral adjustment.
