“生本不乐”与“劳蛛缀网”——也谈许地山早期创作的佛学意味

"No Pleasure in Life" and "Spiders Weaving Cobweb"——An Analysis of Buddhist Implication in Xu Dishan's Earlier Works

多数的评论家都认为许地山早期的散文与小说创作浸淫着佛教的观念与思想,其实这一时期的许地山尚未开始佛教、道教的专门研究,《空山灵雨》与《缀网劳蛛》并未体现圆满究竟的佛学佛理。在这一创作时节,许地山以自己的方式理解并接纳着佛教"生本不乐"的苦空观,并借用佛家词汇传达其"劳蛛缀网"的人生观。他对佛教采用的仅仅是社会生活态度层面上的理解和文学审美情感上的价值取舍。

Most critics hold that Xu Dishan＇ s earlier proses and novels are full of Buddhist concept and idea. But in fact, Xu Dishan hadn＇t begun to specialize in the study of Buddhism and Taoism in that period. Holy Rain in Hollow Hills and Spiders Weaving Cobweb didn＇t incarnate the Buddhist thought of consummation under heaven. At the time of creating, Xu Dishan understood and admitted the tribulation of Buddhist unhappy life idea in his own way. And he expressed the philosophy of life of ＂Spiders Weaving Cobweb＂ by using Buddhist words. His attitude to Buddhism was on the understanding of social life attitude and literary aesthetic sensibility of value acception and rejection.
