文明的野蛮与野蛮的文明——评韩少功的《日夜书》

The savage civilization and the civilized Savage——A Review of Han Shaogong's Novel “Day Book”

文明与野蛮的对比、翻转,构成《日夜书》历史钩沉的诗学辩证法,也是相对主义认识论与价值观的现代结晶。在《日夜书》中,韩少功着意的并不在于提供一个现成的答案,或一套固定的价值标准,而是以知青遭际的伦理叙事,将现实之思、未来之忧和历史之虑,将家国命运、社会变迁和个人经历,以小说的艺术样式和盘托出,作者借知青小说的物质外壳,鸣奏一曲"逝者如斯,不舍昼夜"的时间咏叹调。

Han Shaogong made the comparison of civilization and barbarism, which constitutes a“Day Book”historical dialectics of poems and maximizes the modern spirit of relativism, one of the most concentrated entrusted. That is not that provides ready-made answers, or a fixed value standard, but one of personal ethical narration of fate. In a dialectical way, Han expresses his concern and worries for the future and history, social change and personal experiences, in his specific style. He also borrows the educated youth novels materials to expound his notion of the savage civilization and the civilized savage.
