摘　　要：自1623年约翰·赫明和亨利·康德尔主编的莎士比亚《第一对开本》将莎士比亚的剧本分为喜剧、悲剧和历史剧以来,学者对英国文艺复兴时期是否存在着独立的戏剧类型“历史剧”以及当时历史剧的概念曾一度产生争议,说法不一。本文试图从戏剧题材、意图和主题层面对英国文艺复兴时期历史剧的概念进行辨析,认为英国文艺复兴时期的历史剧是一种独立的戏剧类型。从题材来源上看,它们主要取材于历史素材,包括编年史、历史故事和神话史;就戏剧意图而论,英国文艺复兴时期历史剧旨在借用历史来隐喻当时的政治,为君王提供政治教诲;就戏剧主题而言,英国近代民族国家的命运是英国文艺复兴时期历史剧的基本主题。Scholars have once disputed whether there was an independent genre of drama with the name of“historical drama”and what was its concept in the English Renaissance since John Heminge and Henry Condell,the editors of Shakespeare’s First Folio,divided his plays into comedies,historical dramas and trag-edies in 1623.This article attempts to differentiate and analyze its concept from the perspective of drama sub-ject,intention and theme,and argues that the historical drama is an independent genre of drama.In terms of sources of subject matter,they are mainly drawn from historical materials like chronicles,historical romances and mythical history.As for dramatic intention,the purpose of historical drama is to use history as a metaphor for the politics at that time to provide political teachings for the rulers.In terms of drama theme,the basic theme is the fate of modern British nation-state.
