古代具有说唱、舞蹈、戏谑等表演才能的艺人,宋元以后也指称戏曲演员。又称倡优、俳优、优伶等。最初是宫廷贵族为娱乐目的而供养的小群体,宋元以后随着城市发展而出现专业艺人团队。在重政教、轻审美的古代,优人社会地位低下。司马迁《史记·滑稽列传》肯定优人对君王的劝谏作用,这也成为后世评价名优的一个重要尺度以及艺人的自觉追求。 Entertainers, known as Youren (优人), or Changyou (倡优), Paiyou (俳优), or Youling (优伶), were folk artists who performed story-telling, dancing, acrobatics, and comedy. After the Song and Yuan dynasties, they also performed in operas. Initially formed as small groups of entertainers sponsored by court aristocrats for entertainment, they evolved into professional performing troupes as cities grew in size after the Song and Yuan dynasties. In old China when ideological and ethical principles were valued to the neglect of entertainment, entertainers were low in social status. Sima Qian, in the "Biographies of Jesters" section of his Records of the Historian, praised entertainers for boldly giving moral advice to rulers. This practice later became a major criterion for commenting on entertainers, and it also became a conscious choice of aspiring entertainers. 去书内
