Title:: A Comparison of the Reception Ethics Between Chinese and Western Novels

Keywords:: reception ethics; ethical interpretation; classical novels; Western novels

摘要:: 中西小说接受伦理的比较，突出表现为伦理阐释的比较，包括阐释形式的比较和阐释对象的比较。就阐释形式看，中国古典小说的阐释形式主要是和小说融为一体的评点，西方小说的阐释形式则是和小说分离的专论、书评、通信等。就阐释对象看，包含对小说内容的阐释和对小说形式的阐释。中国古典小说对内容的阐释多于对形式的阐释，西方小说则兼顾内容和形式。就内容阐释而言，中国古典小说秉持伦理教化的宗旨，西方小说则从具体情境来分析人物和情节的伦理意蕴，二者的差异在对爱情故事的理解上有鲜明表现；就形式阐释而言，中国古典小说的评点在结构、文法、修辞三个方面显示出其伦理姿态，西方小说则强调语言、技巧和伦理之间的关系，二者的差异可通过果报模式的差异以见一斑。

Abstract:: The comparison of reception ethics between Chinese and Western novels is evident in the analysis of ethical interpretations, encompassing both interpretive forms and objects. In terms of interpretive forms, Chinese classical novels predominantly incorporate commentary seamlessly into the narrative, while Western novels undergo interpretive reception in the form of independent monographs, book reviews, and correspondence. The scope of interpretation includes both the content and form of the novel. In Chinese classical novels, the emphasis on interpreting content exceeds that of form, while the interpretive reception of Western novels considers both aspects. Regarding content interpretation, Chinese classical novels are believed to uphold the moralization objective, whereas the interpretive reception of Western novels seeks to analyze the ethical implications of characters and plots within the content. This contrast is particularly evident in the comprehension of love stories. The interpretation of Chinese classical novels reflects ethical attitudes in three aspects: structure, grammar, and rhetoric, whereas that of Western novels highlights the relationship between language and ethics, as well as the interplay of skill and ethics. This distinction is exemplified by variations in the understanding of the karma model.
