“物与人”的流离与归属——评葛亮“匠传”系列之《书匠》

The Displacement and Belonging of “Things and People”:Comment on “The Bookmaker” in Ge Liang’s “Craftsman Biography” Series Novels

《书匠》是葛亮近期创作"匠人系列"/"匠传"的开篇之作,由《简》《老董》《徒弟》三个独立又关联的故事构成,"书"与"修复"是《书匠》的核心情节。葛亮试图借此重建全球化时代跨文化社会中"物"与"人"之关系,思考新古典主义的守常与新变。从侧重"人"在世变中的命运,到对"物"的全球流徙的瞩目,葛亮小说出现值得期待的新元素。

“Bookmaker”is the first work of Ge Liang’s“Craftsman Biography”series novels.It is composed of three independent and related stories,“Jian”,“Lao Dong”,and“Apprentice”.“Book”and“Repair”are the core plot of“Bookmaker”.Ge Liang tried to rebuild the relationship between“things”and“people”in the cross-cultural society in the era of globalization,and to think about the constant and new changes of neoclassicalism.From focusing on the destiny of“people”in the changing world,to focusing on the global migration of“things”,new elements that are worth looking forward to appear in Ge Liang’s novels.
