ABSTRACT

As for the formation of the BanShi(板式) metabolic Chinese opera, there are still many different opinions in academic circles. This article tries from the perspective of stylistic structure evolution, by investigating the relationship between the art of speaking and singing and the mature opera, the ritual drama and traditional Chinese opera, summarizes the evolution of the stylistic structure of BanShi(板式) metabolic Chinese opera. Puju is a representative kind of the BanShi(板式) metabolic Chinese opera, the Mixed drama is a famous ritual drama, and there's a clear historical inheritance relationship between them. Comparing their scripts, we find that there are many similar themes, and even some plays have exactly the same words. In order to be more suitable for stage performance, Puju adds many new plots and female roles on the basis of the Mixed drama. Puju is singing and Mixed drama is reciting, but their musical mode is the same. The Mixed drama has retained many traces of the art of speaking and singing, and ultimately achieved theatrical performance. Therefore, Mixed drama is a transitional form between the art of speaking and singing and the mature opera, and it is on the basis of which the BanShi(板式) metabolic Chinese opera is formed. Through the study of such problems, I hope to provide a way of thinking and reference for the origin and development of Chinese opera and the evolution of the stylistic structure of drama scripts.
