中国戏曲源远流长，它最早是从模仿劳动的歌舞中产生的。 Chinese opera has a long history. It originated from the imitation of labor. （一）先秦——戏曲的萌芽期。《诗经》里的“颂”，《楚辞》里的“九歌”，就是祭神时歌舞的唱词。从春秋战国到汉代，在祭神的歌舞中逐渐演变出娱人的歌舞。从汉魏到中唐，又先后出现了以竞技为主的“角抵”（即百戏）、以问答方式表演的“参军戏”和扮演生活小故事的歌舞“踏摇娘”等，这些都是萌芽状态的戏剧。 （1） Pre Qin period: the embryonic stage of opera. The "ode" in the book of songs and the "Nine Songs" in the songs of the Chu are the songs and dances for worshiping gods. From the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period to the Han Dynasty, the song and dance of entertaining people gradually evolved in the song and dance of worshiping gods. From the Han and Wei dynasties to the middle Tang Dynasty, there were successively competitive "contests" (i.e. hundred operas), question and answer performances of "participating in the army" and songs and dances of "stepping on a shaking mother" playing life stories, all of which were budding dramas. （二）唐代（中后期）——戏曲的形成期。中唐以后，我国戏剧飞跃发展，戏剧艺术逐渐形成。 （2） Tang Dynasty (middle and later period) - the formation period of opera. After the middle Tang Dynasty, Chinese drama developed rapidly, and drama art gradually formed. |
