享有“一代之奇”、“特绝之作”盛誉的传奇极盛于中唐之世,个中缘由自然不少。本文认为,史籍固有的诗心因素在唐初八史撰著中急剧膨胀及其深刻影响,中唐社会气候促使传奇创作竞争机制的确立,也是不容忽视的两个原因。 Enjoy the “generation of the odd”, “extraordinary” for the reputation of the legendary extremely prosperous in the Middle Tang Dynasty, a lot of natural reasons. This paper argues that the inherent poetic factors of history books were drastically inflated and profoundly influenced by essays written in the early eight years of the Tang dynasty. The establishment of a competition mechanism for the legendary creation in the social climate of the middle Tang dynasty is also one of the two reasons that can not be ignored.
