从林震到小林——略论当代文学中知识分子形象的演变

From Lin Zhen to Xiao Lin——On the Evolution of the Intellectual's Image in Contemporary Literature

知识分子是作家们持续关注的对象,随着时代环境的改变,当代文学中的知识分子形象也发生了变化:从50年代执着于理想的挑战者林震,到70年代痴迷于事业的奉献者陆文婷,再到80-90年代向世俗妥协的庸碌者小林。揭示这种变化对知识分子认识自身具有启迪意义。知识分子形象演变的原因可归结为两大方面:一是知识分子的自我认同出现危机,二是作家叙事伦理的悄然变化。

InteUectuals have been the writers＇ continuous focus. Along with the changes in time environment, the intellectual has a variety of images in contemporary literature from Lin Zhen, a challenger of the 50s pursuing his ideal, to Lu Wen - ring a devo- tee of her cause in the 70 s, and then to Xiao Lin, an 80 - 90s＇ mediocrity yielding to social conventions. Revealing the changes helps inteleetuals identify themselves. The cause of the evolution of the intellectual＇ s image can be attributed to two major as- pects. One is the self - identity of intellectuals crisis, the other is econd, the writers＇ narrative ethics changed quietly.
