乌托邦·恶托邦——《边城》与《围城》的审美意象之比较

Utopia · Evil-Utopia——A Comparative Analysis of Aesthetic Images between Border Town and Besieged City

《边城》和《围城》在人文景象、爱情观念、生命意识三个方面所呈现出来的审美意象存在着较大的差异。《边城》描绘的是一个乡土乌托邦、优美的爱情观和供奉人性的道德乌托邦,它是以营造"乌托邦"式的边城来呵护人性,以"美"的意象来供奉"善"人性,《围城》所呈现出来的是一个混沌大都市、世俗的婚姻观念和亵渎人生的"围城"世界,它以"恶托邦"形式来考问人性,以"恶"的形式呼唤人性"美"的回归。

There is a sharp difference between the aesthetic images that are expressed in Border Town and Besieged City,which is reflected in such three aspects as the human scene,love concept and life awareness.Border Town creates a ＂utopian＂ type of border town including care of human nature,and worships ＂good＂ human nature with the image of ＂beauty＂,while Besieged City shows a chaotic metropolis,secular ideas of marriage and a world of ＂besieged city＂ that desecrates life,questioning human nature with the form of ＂evil utopia＂,and calling for the return of the ＂beauty＂ of human nature in the form of ＂evil utopian＂.
