和谐与变奏——《边城》的内蕴探析

Harmony and Variation——A Probe into the Connotation of The Border Town

从人类学的角度来考察《边城》 ,发现它的整个旋律是由和谐不断向变奏演进 ,“三层次均衡和谐”的边城最后土崩瓦解了。《边城》与其说是一只悱恻动人的爱情牧歌 ,不如说是一只悲切哀婉的风俗挽歌。

In the perspective of anthropology, the whole melody of the Border Town is found to be a gradual evolution from harmony to variation. The border town with 'three levels balance and harmony' collapses at last. The border Town is more a grievous custom elegy than a moving love eclogue.
