“鲁迅风波”:当代中国思想史的一个侧面

"The Disturbance over LU Xun": One Aspect of the Intellectual History in Contemporary China

鲁迅的著作已成为经典,不论在文学史上,还是在思想史上,都是公认的事实。而且这在鲁迅生前业已发生,是在各种思想争论中历史地形成的。自改革开放和思想解放运动以来的20余年间,鲁迅及其思想又遭遇挑战,这已不是经典形成的话题,而是挑战经典本身,由此而引发的纷纭评说,人称“鲁迅风波”。“鲁迅风波”虽经几起几落,但其背后隐藏的,不啻是鲁迅经典文本的现代阐释,尽管阐释有严肃的,也有调侃的,但都是借阐释鲁迅以表达某种当代思想诉求。因此,关于鲁迅的不同层面、不同取向的论争,凸显的无疑是当代中国思想史的一个侧面。

It is a generally acknowledged fact in both literary and intellectual histories thah LU Xun's works became classies. The classical status of LU Xun's works was established historically during intellectual debates, which took place before his death. In recent twenty plus years since the initiation of reform, opening - up and the emancipation of mind LU Xun and his works have once more faced challenges. This does not belong to the topic on how these classies came into being, but poses challenges to these classies. Squabbles and disputes are known as 'the disturbance over LU Xun'. This disturbance has had repeated rises and falls, but what it really means is no less than contemporary interpretation of the classical texts by LU Xun, either serious or deridmg, an expression of intellectual pursuit in the present ara. Therefore, debates over LU Xun in different levels and among different orientations presents one aspect of contemporary Chinese intellectual history.
