中文摘要

明代笑話書《解慍編》,樂天大笑生纂輯,凡14卷,280則。其中與吝嗇者有關的笑話共15則,主要由纂輯者據當時民間流傳的笑話改編、潤飾或獨自創作而來,相對具有原創意義和文獻價值。本文主要從此類笑話裡的吝嗇者心態為起始,針對其處事標準、情緒特質和遭受吝嗇對待者的反應予以探討。畢竟就人性自私的角度言,吝嗇對象應該是先他人而後自己,然《解慍編》裡的吝嗇者,卻以不符合常情方式,不厚己薄彼地以同樣標準苛刻自己。卻也因為讓人有啼笑皆非之感,對讀者有借鏡效用,能夠以較為慷慨的態度待人待己。再者,此類笑話裡的主人公因過度貪求且得失心重,情緒大起大落,然受此對待者,往往刻意將其吝嗇面貌揭露,以戲弄或嘲諷方式使其出糗。藉此獲得吃過吝嗇虧者之共鳴,達到解除煩憂、娛樂大眾的目的,相信這也是吝嗇者始料未及的慷慨貢獻。

英文摘要

The Ming joke book “Jie Yun Bian” was compiled by Le Tian Da Xiao Sheng, and it embodied 280 jokes in 14 volumes. Among them, 15 jokes were related to stingy men and they were mainly adapted, retouched or created solely by the compiler according to the popular folk jokes at that time. Therefore, they conveyed original meanings and literature values. The present study initially explored the mindset of stingy men in this kind of jokes, and aimed at their conduct standards, emotion qualities, and their responses when being stingily treated. After all, from the angle of human selfishness, the targets of stingy men were supposed to be others and then themselves. The stingy men in “Jie Yun Bian”, however, were hard on themselves with an equal stingy way, which went against the grain. Meanwhile, such ironic situation set good examples for the readers to treat others and themselves in a more generous attitude. In addition, the excessive greed and sensitiveness of the protagonists in such kind of jokes made their moods swing between elation and despair. Those who were being stingily treated would intentionally disclose their stingy behaviors and make clowns of them in a tricky or sarcastic way. In doing so, they related to those who were ripped off by stingy men, and attained the purposes of releasing anxiety and amusing the audience, which might be a generous contribution that the stingy men did not expect.
