自然人性·乡土诗性·和谐神性——解读沈从文的文学追求

Natural Human Nature.Native Soil Poem.Harmonious Divine Nature——An Interpretation of Shen Congwen's Literary Pursuit

沈从文坚守着自己“乡下人”的身份,从乡村中国的视角和价值判断来建构自己的文学及文化体系。这个体系包括紧密关联的三个方面:带有“五四”启蒙传统的对民族品性的思考与重塑;“乡下人”视角下“城”与“乡”对立所导致的对世俗的躲避和对自然人性的讴歌;基于对“人”更高意义上的关怀,他还对现代文明的弊病做了深刻的思考,庄严地呼唤和谐“神性”的建构。

Shen Congwen stands fast at his identity of boor, and constructs his own literature and culture system from the rural angle and value judgment of China. This system includes three closely - related aspects： thinking and reconstruction of national morality with the ＂May Forth Movement＂ tradition; the contrast of city and country from boor＇s angle leading to the escape from the secular world and the praise of natural human nature. Based on the higher consideration for man, Shen Congwen ponders over the weakness of modem civilization and calls for the construction of the harmonious divine nature.
