The Study On Structure's Art Of "Zhuang-zi"

"Zhuang-zi" is the philosophical prose which reasons things out with the literary techniques. The laconic, profound, extensive and transcendental charms come from its unusual and exaggerated imagination, meaningful and fantastic fables, variegated and surf-like imposing manner, as well as the interweaving metrical and prosaic sentences. It shrouds the logical analyses in some concrete images. This kind of special aesthetic characteristic, by reason of the different proportion of the various factors, such as emotion, understanding and imagines, contains in its wording and phrasing. If truly comprehending the thought essence of "Zhuang-zi", must begin with analyzing thoroughly the structure of text, enter among them and stem from besides, with the thinking way combining the sensory experience with the highly abstracts.The traditional connotation of article's structure, as stated in "Wen Xin Diao Long", writing by Liu Xie, who is ancient literary critic: "to attach the refined language based on one idea", namely, "how to arrange the beginning, end and transition of a article, how to complete one work through tailor." When Ming and Qing dynasties, the form of article was emphasized so extremely in the eight-part essay that caused the article structure to fetter the expression of thought and emotion. However, some scholars, who studied "Zhuang-zi" based on the text's structure, pioneer the space for development and keep the precious resources for today.In the modern explanation, the text structure also is a three-dimensional concept with multiple meanings. According to the literature structure dimension, it includes not only the close structure which conforms to the traditional standard, with all essential factors, but also the open one that violates the tradition, destructs the standard, the basic essentials are incomplete and takes on the multidimensional characteristic. Based on the form of the appearance, it includes both the surface structure, and the in-depth structure. In addition, there are the plot structure, the language structure, the logical structure, the cognition structure, the aesthetic structure, and so on. Otherwise, at the aesthetic angle, the text's structure also belongs to "the meaning form " said by Mr. Li Zehou, in which accumulated certain social culture . Based on understanding thoroughly the text' s structure and referencing the studies of some scholars in Ming or Qing dynasty, this dissertation, whose object is the thirty-three articles of " Zhuang-zi" noted by GuoXiang, attempts to penetrate the lingual fragment and the quaint people or stories into the major idea of the sutra.Regarding the whole structure about this book, the structure of Jing-Zhuan coming of the hermeneutic in Zhan Guo dynasty is of use in analyzing the relation of the inner chapter, outer chapter and mixed chapter, for opening up the influence of age and the social culture to "Zhuang-zi".According to the position of every chapter's leitmotiv, it is summarized that the concrete characteristic about each chapter, the ideas behind them and the reasons making such styles as implicative, meaning, billowy, and so on.About the section's structure, this dissertation treats of three aspects: the fables sequences, the refrain about some sections or sentences, the move and circumfluence of sentences and moods. Based on the three aspects, the rule about composing article by words, sentences, sections, and other facts will be bright. And then, let the thinking jump out of the text convention, through experience the "Dao" of "Zhuang-zi" which contains "the crazy logic", uncover the esthetics idea lurking in the text structure at last.
