暗夜里的歌者——卡夫卡与他的时代

Singing in the Dark Night:Kafka and His Era

卡夫卡是现代小说的创造者,是现代主义文学中最重要的作家之一。对于卡夫卡而言,他所生活的政治动荡、思想转型的时代以及所面对的民族文化冲突和家庭阴影,等等,都是一个巨大的噩梦。一种对人类生存的危机感充溢在他的心头,他的内心因此成了一个"庞大的世界",借助文学手段将它宣泄出来,成了他"巨大的幸福":在黑暗之中,他需要歌唱。

Kafka,the originator of the modern novel,is one of the most important modernist literature writers.For Kafka,his era of political unrest and thought transformation and the national culture conflict and family shadows are a huge nightmare.A sense of urgency of human existence haunts his mind and there is a ＂huge world＂ in his mind which needs to be expressed with literature means to become his ＂tremendous happiness＂： in the dark,he needs to sing.
