摘要: 《红楼梦》有五个题名,其不同的题名实际蕴含着不尽相同的小说创作观念。从《风月宝鉴》题名的“寓劝戒”,到《石头记》和《情僧录》题名的“实录其事”,再到《金陵十二钗的》题名的“问世传奇”,终至《红楼梦》题名的“戏与梦同”,《红楼梦》题名的变迁实际体现出曹雪芹在前后相继的创作阶段中小说创作观念的演进。

Abstract: Cao Xueqin’s novel Dream of the Red Chamber had five different titles. These titles reflect the author’s different notions of novel writing. The title A Precious Mirror to Love Affair implies an allegorical discipline, the titles The Story of the Stone and Emotional Monk’s Record indicates authentic record of the real things, the title Twelve Beauties of Jinling tries to be a legend to question the world, and the final title A Dream of the Red Chamber expresses the notion of "a dream being the same as a play." The change of titles reflected the evolution of Cao Xueqin's notion of novel writing in different stages of creative writing.

Key words: Cao Xueqin; Dream of a Red Chamber, book title, notion of novel writing, evolution
