黑塞小说对中国文化的创造性吸收

Hesse's Novels and Their Creative Absorption of the Chinese Culture

赫尔曼.黑塞是很难得的通晓中国精神文化的西方大作家之一,他的作品与中国文化产生了广泛而全面的关联。本文探讨了产生这种关联的途径,即包括题材改编,中国意象与象征手法的运用,中国哲学与人物形象、主题的融合及个别重大作品的东方寓言性等,最后重点讨论了黑塞代表作《玻璃球游戏》对中国文化全方位的吸收与超越。

Hermann Hesse was one of the rarest writers in the west who were well acquainted with the Chinese ideology and culture. His works have extensive connections with the Chinese culture. This paper analyzes such connections from the perspectives of subject matter adaptation, the use of Chinese images and symbolic devices, Chinese philosophy and figures, thematic amalgamation and the Oriental fable features of his few major works. Finally, this paper probes into the all - round absorption and the transcending of the Chinese culture.
