激情的张扬与沉潜——王蒙小说的“弥赛亚”情结

Expansion and Repose of Passion:Messiah Complex in Wang Meng's Works

"弥赛亚"是王蒙在小说中浓墨重彩书写的一个独特意象,通过探讨"弥赛亚"所寄寓的复杂蕴含,可以梳理出在历史演进的过程中,王蒙作品所展现的对革命狂欢的赤诚赞颂到对知识分子"救世主"神话标榜的冷静反思,再到深刻质疑"弥赛亚主义"的一个精神历程。这既是王蒙作为知识分子自审和自救的心灵历程,也是王蒙文化心态发展和自身的历史定位调整的过程。

Messiah is a unique image earnestly described in Wang Meng＇s novels. A careful study of Messiah and its implications can help reveal Wang Meng ＇s pilgrimage reflected from his works from sincere glorification of revolutionary carnival to reflections on myth of intellectuals as the saviours and further to deep doubt toward Messeahism at last. This p intellectual ilgrimage is not only Wang Meng ＇s spiritual experience of self-examination and self-rescue as an but also the process in which Wang Meng adjusts his cultural mentality and historical position.
