摘要

密度是指一篇文章的叙事中故事元素的数量。精细性是指所展示的故事元素的充分性和内在的完整性。相比之下，中国古代小说的故事元素密度较高，精细度较低，而西方小说的故事要素密度较低，精细度较高。这种差异在一定程度上促成了中国小说结构的简洁和精致，以及西方小说结构的复杂性和精致性。然而，这些特征各有其长处，符合中西方小说产生的民族文化和社会框架。因此，中西方小说中的这些元素都能恰当地反映出各自社会的生活方式和人们的思想感情，都是值得肯定的。

A Comparative Study of Density and Fineness in the Narratives of Chinese and Western Classical Novels

Density refers to the number of story elements within a narrative of a given piece of writing. Fineness refers to the sufficiency and inherent completeness of the story elements displayed. In comparison, the density of story elements in ancient Chinese novels is higher, and the fineness is lower, while the density of story elements in Western novels is lower and the fineness is higher. This difference partly contributes to the simplicity and refinement of the structure of Chinese novels and the complexity and delicate nature of the structure of Western novels. However, each of these characteristics has its strengths, in line with the national culture and social framework from which the Chinese and Western novels emerged. As such, these elements found in both Chinese and Western novels can appropriately reflect the way of life of their respective societies and the thoughts and feelings of the people therein, both of which are worthy of recognition.
