寻求真实的存在——论曹禺早期戏剧的文化价值内涵

Seek the Existence of Truth——The elaboration of the culture value content in the Caoyu's earlier period dramas

曹禺在他早期的戏剧创作中以一颗纯真之心真诚地去探索社会、生活和人性的真实。写尽假恶丑,写出真善美,努力地寻求一种精神的澄明境界成为他前期作品中始终贯穿的审美理想。这使他的作品蕴藏着丰富的文化内涵:从对原始动力和狭笼的深刻体悟到不得不面对的置留或出走的文化抉择,以及为了追求光明和希望必须承担的艰难的救赎责任,都无不体现出曹禺意要破旧立新的文化整合与道德重建的价值观。

Caoyu sincerely seek the truth of the socitey, the life and the humanity by his sincere heart in his earlier period dramatic writing. It was writing the truth, the good, the beautiful, the shame, the bad, the ugly and seeking a kind of bright sate that had penetrated his works as his writing ideal. It made his dramas imply plentiful culture content. From understarding the original force and the narrow cage to facing the cluture choice——staying in or going out to undertaking the saving responsibility, they all reflected Caoyu's creative value point to unite the cultures and established the new morality.
