成长的悖论:觉醒与困惑——成长小说视角下的苏比与阿Q

Paradox of Growth: Awakening and Perplexityy——Comparative Analysis of Soapy and AH. Q from the Perspective of the Initiation Story

成长小说亦称启蒙小说,它将成长隐喻为从"天真"走向"经验"这一孤独而艰巨的历程。从成长小说的角度来分析,主人公苏比(《警察与赞美诗》)和阿Q(《阿Q正传》)都经历了从天真、顿悟到幻灭这样一个觉醒与困惑的成长历程,而觉醒与困惑是文化上的一种悖论。这一悖论从小说的社会背景、民族心理和文化层面得到了相应的文化解读。

The Growth Story has another name-the Initiation Story,which metaphorizes growth into a lonely and bumpy journey from innocence to maturity.From the perspective of the Initiation Story,the protagonists,Soapy and AH.Q,both experienced a journey from innocence,epiphany to disillusion,accompanied with awakening but perplexity.Awakening and perplexity is somewhat a paradox in cultural sense.For this,the essay makes a related cultural interpretation of the paradox in terms of social reality,national psychology and artistic techniques.
