摘要：

晚清小说《风月梦》和《海上花列传》分别以扬州和上海为叙事背景，通过对不同时期不同城市意象的展示，揭示了近代转型期江南城市的不同转变。前者对扬州城市意象的书写反映出作者对传统生活方式的追怀，向传统价值观念的回归。而后者对上海城市意象的书写中则表达了作者对现代都市生活形态的认可，对现代都市价值观的认同。在这两种不同的城市书写中，一方面反映了近代转型期江南城市向现代形态的转变过程；另一方面也传达出作者对现代都市价值观念的某种认同。

Abstract:

 Dream of Romance(Fengyue Meng) and Biographies of Flowers in Shanghai(Haishang Hua Liezhuan)were late Qing Dynasty novels set in the cities of Yangzhou and Shanghai respectively. The different city images during different times revealed urban changes  in the south of theYangtze River in the modern transition period. Dream of Romance conveyed a nostalgic reminiscence of the traditional lifestyles andvalues through the depiction of the images of Yangzhou. Biographies of Flowers in Shanghai, however, carried a different tone and expressed the writer’s recognition and approval of Shanghai as a modern metropolis filled with urban lifestyles and values. The depictions of the two cities not only reflect the transformation of cities in south of theYangtze Riverin the modern transition period, but also convey the writers’ positive attitude toward modern urban values to some extent.

Key words: cities, Dream of Romance, Biographies of Flowers in Shanghai, transition, south of the Yangtze River
