论陈独秀文学思想的启蒙现代性和政治先锋性

On the Enlightenment Modernity and Political Pioneer Spirit of Chen Duxiu's Literary Thought

陈独秀文学思想是在19世纪末和20世纪初思想启蒙运动中建立起来的。其文学思想带有鲜明的思想启蒙现代性和政治革命先锋性的特点。他的启蒙现代性主要是重视文学传播革命思想,唤起国民思想觉悟;吸收西方进步文化思想,批判封建旧文化、旧文学的彻底革命精神;他的政治"先锋性"主要以民主主义思想为指导,以政治革命为意图而发动文学革命,重视文学的政治功能,提倡文学为人生的现实主义原则,用全新的观念确立小说的文学正宗地位。

Founded in the Ideological Enlightenment Movement of the late 19th century and the early 20th century, Chen Duxiu＇ s literary thought was characterized by distinct enlightenment modernity and political revolu- tionary pioneer spirit. His enlightenment modernity lay in his heeding the dissemination of revolutionary ideas via literature to arouse the national ideological consciousness as well as in his thorough revolutionary spirit of absorbing the western progressive cultural thought and of criticizing the traditional feudal culture and literature. His political pioneer spirit was embodied in his launch of a literary revolution for a political revolution under the guidance of the democratic thought so as to value the political function of literature, to advocate the principle of realism--literature is for life, and to establish the authentic literary status of fiction via brand-new notions.
