本課程旨在通過「志怪小說」此一文類之多方面向檢討，使學者清楚中國古典小說之中某一特殊文類之成書與特性，以及存在其中之意涵與不足之處；透過故事內容與情節之深入分析，期使學者明白該文類在語言、文字上的若干特性，和創作者在創作過成中的某些得失與隱藏性之時代想法，並得以藉此建立學術視界，閱讀其他不同時期之小說名著。

This course aims to enable scholars to understand the creation and characteristics of a particular genre of Chinese classical novels, as well as its implications and shortcomings, through a multi-faceted review of the genre of "Strange Fiction". Through in-depth analysis of story content and plots, it is expected to enable scholars to understand certain characteristics of this genre in terms of language and writing, as well as some of the creator's gains and losses in the creation process and hidden thoughts of the times. This course will allow scholars to establish an academic perspective and read famous novels from other different periods.
