“演书”是《杭州白话报》上兴起的一种采用白话语改写其他书籍的报刊文体。它利用传统白话小说的语言特点鼓吹维新,成为资产阶级的政治宣传工具。它接近小说,但又不是小说,伴随着小说界革命发展起落,它的最终消亡预示着梁启超倡导小说政治化的必然失败。 “Speech ” is the “Hangzhou vernacular newspaper” on the rise of a rewrite of other books in the style of newspapers and periodicals. It uses the language characteristics of traditional vernacular novel to promote reform and become a political propaganda tool for the bourgeoisie. Close to the novel, it is not a novel. Along with the ups and downs of revolution in fiction, its ultimate demise indicates the inevitable failure of Liang Qichao to promote the politicization of the novel.
