商业化写作的英雄神话——论《天龙八部》中的萧峰

Commercial Myth of Hero —On Character XIAO Feng in the Book Heavenly Dragon in Eight Volumes

《天龙八部》中的萧峰之所以能成为众多人心目中的英雄象征,不外与两方面因素有关,一是作者所精心塑造出的主人公形象的个性特征,一是作者所刻意在主人公独特的身世经历里制造的色彩复杂的矛盾冲突。而这两者又是作者在商业化的写作立场下简单地拼凑在一起的,不但无法融为一体,反而互相对抗。

The image of XIAO Feng has become the emblem of hero in the heart of the public owing to two factors: 1. the personality of the main character elaborately portayed by the author; 2. colourful, complex conflict in the unigue life experience of the main character deliberately made. But these two points are hard to unify and conflicting with each other as the author simply knocks them together with his commercial writing stand. XIAO Feng's makings of a hero is dubious and cannot withstand the analysis, the author opines.
