《红高粱》:“民族寓言”学说的归位与突围

Red Sorghum:the Return and Breakout of National Allegory

莫言的小说《红高梁》的叙事模式在一定程度上是对当代影响极大的后殖民主义理论"第三世界民族寓言"学说的归位,同时更是对其所设定的围城的突围。小说从主题表达、人物形象塑造等诸多方面揭示了一个民族文化心理的原生状态,表达了莫言对民族性的深度思考,使该部小说成为现代中国的"民族寓言"但同时小说又极力体现了中国小说叙事的传统性,一定程度上形成了对这种民族寓言的叛逆。

In certain extent, the narrative pattern of Mo Yanks novel Red Sorghum is the return of ＂the third world national allegory＂ with great influence in contemporary era, and is also the breakout of the limitation of the theory. The author reveals the original cultural psychology of Chinese nation in the themes and characterization of the novel, and reveals his deep thought of ethnic features, which makes the novel become a national allegory. Meanwhile, the novel bears a strong Chinese narration tradition, thus it is a revolt against the national allegory.
