新革命历史小说的身体凸显及暴力美学

Body Stressed and Violence Esthetics in New Revolutionary Historical Novels

作为新时代主流意识形态的表达,新革命历史小说与1950—1970年的革命历史小说有很大差异。一个显著标志,就是革命者的身体得到凸显。新革命历史小说对男性革命者充满杀戮快感的身躯的处理方式,体现了现代性内涵与意识形态的意义。革命者身体的凸显及暴力描写,不可避免地消解了国家意识形态的深度和力量。这类小说在身体描写上不能走得太远,应比一般的“纯文学”及大众文化谨慎、持重。

New revolutionary historical novels, an expression of the main stream ideology of the new era, differ greatly from the revolutionary novels of 1950s to 1970s. One remarkable symbol is that the bodies of the revolutionaries are stressed. The description of the bodies of male revolutionaries full of enjoyment of killing embodies the connotation of modernity and the meaning of ideology. It is inevitable that the stress of revolutionaries ＂bodies and the description of violence dispel the ideological depth and strength of country. This kind of novel cannot go too far in description of bodies and should be more prudent than general ＂ pure literature＂ and mass culture.
