人性探索路上的心灵相逢——沈从文与莫言比较研究

A Comparative Study of Shen Congwen and Mo Yan

沈从文与莫言是两个创作个性鲜明且风格迥异的作家,但在他们所建构的民族历史寓言象征意义的"湘西"和"高密东北乡"的文学王国里却存在着本质的相同点。论文意在从民间价值立场、自然本真人性、原始自由生命强力、女性崇拜意识四个方面阐述他们在生命力支点下的创作默契。通过对这两位作家的比较,我们会发现具有民间价值立场的"乡土文学"及某些重要的文学表现主题在20世纪中国文坛上的发展和演变。

Although Shen Congwen and MoYan are two writers with respective distinctive individuality and different styles in their literary creation, they virtually have some essential points in common in terms of their respectively fabricated literary kingdom with national, historical and allegorical symbolic meanings-- “Xiangxi” （ the southern part of Hunan） and “Gaomi Town in the Northeastern Part of China”. This paper attempts to expound on the affinity between the two writers from the perspectives of the folk value standpoint, the natural and essential humanity, the primitive and free power of life, and the awareness of female worship. By comparing these two writers, we are apt to discover the development and evolution of “literature of the native land” with folk value standpoint and of some important literary themes in the 20th-century Chinese literary arena.
