两种不同民族语境下的忏悔叙述——基于《复活》与《蛙》的分析

Confession narration in two different national contexts ——Based on the analysis on "Resurrection" and "Frog"

托尔斯泰的《复活》与莫言的《蛙》在忏悔意识方面都表现出鲜明的民族文化风格和不同的心灵指向。通过对整个忏悔程序的比较,来观照两种忏悔文本的细微差异。《复活》以西方基督教文化为主导,它的忏悔意识联系着深刻的赎罪意识;而以儒家文化为基础的莫言的《蛙》,其忏悔意识则表现为一种刻骨铭心的耻感意识。

Both Tolstoy’s Resurrection and Mo Yan’s Frog show distinct national cultural style and different spiritual direction in confession consciousness.Through the comparison of the whole confession procedure,this paper aims to observe the subtle differences between the two confession texts.The Resurrection is dominated by Western Christian culture,and its repentance consciousness is related to the deep consciousness of atonement.The repentance consciousness of Mo Yan’s Frog,which is based on Confucian culture,is expressed as a deep sense of shame.
