老舍小说《大悲寺外》新解

Analysis of Out of Da Bei Temple Written by Lao She

我国现代作家起步之初从欧洲近现代文学中汲取养料者甚多,但从中发现“灵的文学”的传统,并在创作中仿效者,只有许地山、老舍等二三人。《大悲寺外》将2 0余年的前尘后事绾系在少年的一桩无心之过上,将死魂的宽恕之语化为生人挣扎不开的心灵死结,让睽隔于阴阳两界的两个灵魂无休止地纠葛着、矛盾着、斗争着,以揭示社会的“人与人的关系”,“使人知所恐惧,知所希求”,正体现出西方近代“灵的文学”的美学特征。

There were many authors in medern China that drew nourishment from European literatures,but only a few such as Xu Dishan and Lao She found the tradition of the spiritural literature.The novel Out of Da Bei Temple written by Lao She just reflects the features of the aesthetics of the spiritural literature in the West.
