行进在“自由”之路上——对萧乾作为自由知识分子的心路考察

才华卓绝的萧乾对现代民族国家民主建制的强烈关注与深切焦虑,是萧乾研究中不应忽略的重要部分。尤其在他实行从小说到新闻写作的创作转向后,豁显出作为一个自由知识分子对生命意志与社会理想的执着追求与不懈实践,曲折而丰富的心路轨迹为我们观照特定历史时期的文学提供了一个新的维度。

The creating subjects of the May 4^th literature are mainly composed of the second-generation students. The Western style education they received prompts the making of the same cultural psychological structures, which can be reflected not only by the basically same natural science subjects they have taken in the Western style education, but also by enlightenment thoughts of a generation in the 50g or 60g they have adopted. All mentioned above make their creation of the May 4^th literature possible. The teachers of the creating subjects in the May 4^th literature further reinforce the self-identification about their socio-cultural roles and undergo the unwitting-to-witting switch of cultural roles with their cultural goals of ＂support oneself＂ and ＂rear people＂ achieved, which urges them to become the driving force of the new style education and standardizes the fashion of the literature enlightenment , thus laying a solid foundation for the creation of the May 4^th literature.
