现代情怀与古典操守——再读《凤仪园》

Rereading Feng Yi YUan

20世纪40年代上海著名青年女作家施济美的中篇小说代表作《凤仪园》塑造了融现代情怀与古典操守于一体的女性形象,彰显了当时上海文坛雅俗互动互融小说创作路向的典型特征,形成缱绻悲绝、清幽华贵的艺术风格,成为中国现代文学史上不可多得的美的篇章。

Shi Jimei, the young woman writer of the 1940s in Shanghai, creates in her representative novella Feng Yi Yuan an extraordinary lady character on whom the writer combines the modern love and the traditional personal integrity, showing typically the trend of inter--action and inter--influence of the so called high literature and the vulgar counterpart. The style of melancholy grace expressed in the novella reflects the aesthetic taste in art Shi Jimei pursuits.
