This paper rethinks the prevailing discussions of the“Rogue”in the Tang dynasty anthology“Youyang Zazu”. This study repositions the author Duan Chengshi's unique perspective as a collector of curiosities and the special positioning of the entire work as a distinctive genre apart from history and fiction.“Rogue”is one of the chapters of“Youyang Zazu”, which records the stories of nine extraordinary individuals. Discussions regarding“Rogue”in“Youyang Zazu”have traditionally focused on the“Gallant”aspect, placing them within the context of Tang Dynasty gallant heroic fiction. However, these discussions often overlook the unique aspects of the author, Duan Chengshi, and his work, particularly the nuanced relationship between“Gallant”and“Rogue”. In contrast to other gallant tales collected in“Taiping Guangji”,“Rogue”deconstructs the heroic imagination associated with heroes in gallant fiction, restoring the true nature of“Rogues”while removing the romanticized idea“Gallantry”. Duan Chengshi employs a more historically grounded narrative to points out the conflict in the self-awareness of the Rogue heroes, situated between transgressing prohibitions and adhering to social etiquette. This not only poses a threat to the societal order but also challenges the identity within the authoritative system, ultimately leading to the fateful outcomes of their execution and death. |
