冲突、矛盾与联系：韩国古典小说《玉楼梦》开篇的二元对立之设
Conflicts, Contradictions and Connections: Binary Oppositions in the Opening of the Korean Classical Novel—The Yulou Dream

《玉楼梦》是韩国汉文小说的集大成者，其立意深远，叙事严谨，人物众多，包罗万象，已成为域外汉文学研究中的重要作品之一。文章以《玉楼梦》开篇的首回和次回为文本研究对象，从二元对立理论的视角着重分析文本中天上与人间、幻梦与现实、酩酊与清醒、诸仙与凡人、复苏与萧索五组二元对立之设，解读文本中所隐含的潜在内涵，阐释二元对立情节间的冲突、矛盾与联系，以探求《玉楼梦》开篇的深层叙事结构和情节逻辑。通过研究分析发现，《玉楼梦》开篇的“天上与人间”和“神仙与凡人”是从空间上建构起“天界–凡间”的横向型空间叙事结构，“复苏与萧索”是隐含春秋更迭交变的纵向型时间叙事结构，“幻梦与现实”和“酩酊与清醒”为非此即彼的理性型逻辑叙事，基于以上《玉楼梦》开篇中交互错杂的逻辑结构，进一步丰富了整部作品的艺术表现效果和内在隐含情旨。
As one of the most representative Korean novels written in Chinese, The Yulou Dream boasts profound meaning, rigorous narration, rich personalities and all-embracing content, which has become one of the important works in the study of oversea Chinese literature. Taking the first and second chapters in The Yulou Dream as the research object, this thesis focuses on analyzing five binary pairs including heaven and earth, dream and reality, drunk and sober, immortality and mortality, recovery and destitution from the perspective of binary oppositions to interpret the potential connotation. Furthermore, based on these five binary pairs, this paper aims to explain the conflicts, contradictions and connections between the plots of binary oppositions, thereby exploring the in-depth narrative structure and plot logic at the opening of The Yulou Dream. Through research and analysis, it can be found that the horizontal spatial narrative structure of “heaven-earth” is constructed from the spatial binary oppositions of “heaven and earth” and “immortality and mortality” at the opening of The Yulou Dream. Then, “recovery and desolation” turns out to be the longitudinal temporal narrative structure that implies the passage of years. “Dream and reality” and “drunk and sober” are narrated rationally with explicit logic. The intricate structure in the opening chapters of The Yulou Dream further enriches the artistic effect and the implied theme of the whole work.
