张爱玲与五四文学悲剧观的转变

Eileen Chang and the Change of View on Tragedy in the "May 4" New Literature

张爱玲的文学成就早已是铁板钉钉的事实。但在正统中国现代文学史主题中,无论是上世纪20年代的文学与民族救亡,30年代的文学与阶级斗争,还是40年代的文学与抗战,她仍然只是被作为一个"另类"安置。20世纪中国风雨飘摇的时代,是一个从现实生活和文学作品上看都滋生悲剧的时代。而张爱玲正是以她融贯古今中外的悲剧作品和风格而屹立文艺之园。从现代悲剧观入手,可以发现张爱玲对以《红楼梦》为代表的中国传统悲剧的继承发扬具有独特的魅力,是对以鲁迅为代表的五四悲剧文学的丰富发展,也是对世界性现代悲剧的贡献。

Eileen Chang had achieved brilliant achievements in literary creation., But her position in Chinese modern history of literature is still ambiguous even unfair. Actually Eileen Chang ＇s tragedy creation has irreplaceable value in Chinese modern history of literature. The ＂May 4＂ New Literature, especially Lu Xun＇s tragedy, and the Chinese classical masterpiece the Story of the Stone can be references to help find out the distinctiveness of Eileen Chang ＇s tragedy creation. Eileen Chang ＇s tragedy creation not only is inheritance of Chinese tradition,but also is transcendence of both The ＂May 4＂ New Literature tragedy and the western modernistic tragedy.
