对中国乡村的“小历史”叙事——读毕星星的《坚锐的往事》

Bi Xingxing's Sharp Memories Interpreted

思想性较强的民间"小历史"叙事,是今日中国文坛的一个标高,毕星星的《坚锐的往事》正因此而具有价值与意义。该作以文化特别是以文化的直接载体——文化人为主线,描写了在"权力"的规训下,在城乡文化的冲突中,乡村文化的种种表现形态,揭示了中国乡村的历史真相,进而唤醒、修正了人们对于中国乡村失去了的或者被扭曲了的记忆。

As the narrative of folk ＂histories＂ rich in ideological contents is an elevation in the Chinese literary arena nowadays,thus Sharp Memories by Bi Xingxing is of value and significance.With culture,especially its direct carrier—intellectuals—as the main line,Sharp Memories depicts various manifestations of rural culture amid cultural conflicts between the city and the countryside under the discipline of ＂power＂ and reveals the historical truth of rural China so as to awaken and redress people＇s lost or distorted memory of rural China.
