鲁迅论屈原

Appraisal of Qu Yuan by Lu Xun

鲁迅在《摩罗诗力说》、《中国小说史略》、《汉文学史纲》等论著中,以辩证唯物主义和历史唯物主义的观点,对屈原及其作品作了科学的评论,一方面充分肯定屈原在中国文学史上的重要地位和他作品的主流价值,另一方面也揭示了屈原及其作品的局限性。鲁迅论作家作品,不仅顾及“全人”、顾及“全篇”,而且顾及作者“所处的社会状态”,为文艺评论树立了良好的范例。

In his works such as ＂The Strength of the Mara Poetry＂, ＂History of Chinese Novels＂, and ＂An Outline of Chinese Literary Hisotory＂. Lu Xun makes a scientific appraisal of Qu Yuan and his poetry, from the viewpoints of dialectical materialism and historcal materialism. On the one hand he fully offirrns Qu Yuan＇s important position in Chinese Literary history and the mainstream value of his works; on the other hand he exposes the Limitations of Qu Yuan and his works. While commenting on the writer and his works, Lu Xun considers not only ＂the whole being＂, ＂the whole writings＂, but also ＂the society in which the write exists＂. Therefore Lu Xun sets a good example in art criticism.
