Discourse Analysis Of Sha Jia Bang

"Sha jia bang", one of the eight Revolutionary Modern Peaking Operas, plays an important role in the history of Peaking Opera, and affects the aesthetic experience of one generation. Language is the basis of the script, and it promotes the development of the plots, portrays characters of the roles, spreads out conflicts, makes the theme clear, and even the description of the scene also relied on it. "Builting up Qi xing stove, boiling the water from San jiang with copper kettle...The tea cools down as soon as the person is gone", in its change of the versions, "Sha jia bang" forms a unique language style.Peking opera is a comprehensive art that includes singing, gesticulating, elocution and acrobatics. Language is the raw material of discourse. Discourse is dynamic segment structure which formed in the practical application of language. Discourse analysis is a dynamic analysis. It could restore the text to its real historical, social and cultural background, thus allowing us to have a more comprehensive and realistic understanding of the text. In this master’s degree thesis, I take the versions of "Sha jia bang" as the research object, and using text analysis and discourse analysis as methods to explore the formation of its discourse system and the impact of the system.
