汤显祖不仅是戏曲创作的巨匠,而且是戏曲理论与批评的积极构建者。他提出的一系列美学思想不仅提升了戏剧创作的深度和广度,而且增添了戏曲诗文的意趣神色。“世总为情”的人生观、“因情成梦、因梦成戏”的创作观和“意趣神色”的审美观既是《临川四梦》创作思想的基石,同时也是汤显祖批评社会人生和各种戏曲作品的艺术标准。 Tang Xianzu is not only a master of drama creation, but also an active builder of drama theory and criticism. His series of aesthetical ideas not only enhanced the depth and breadth of drama creation, but also added the interesting look of opera poetry. “The world always love ” view of life, “because of the situation into a dream, because of the dream into a play ” creative view and “the taste of aesthetics ” aesthetic view both is the cornerstone of “Lin Chuan Si Meng” Tang Xianzu is also the critique of social life and all kinds of opera works of art standards.
