个体生命意识的激荡——从孙悟空形象的塑造看《西游记》的创作动机

The Agitation of Individual Life ——An analysis on the writing motive of"Journey to the West" from the characterization of the Monkey King

写作的本质是生命化的。孙悟空作为《西游记》中的主人公 ,自然是吴承恩精神思想和心血的凝聚与外化。我们将目前保存较为完整的《大唐三藏取经诗话》本子和吴承恩《西游记》本子中的孙悟空形象加以比较 ,不难看出吴承恩对孙悟空形象的改造与重塑。这其中的创作动机 ,运用现代心理学知识的解释 ,即作者内心深处生活本能意识和死亡本能意识的激荡。

The essence of wring is liveliness.The monkey king,the key character of'Journey to the West'is of course the cohesion and externalization of the author--Wu Chengen's thoughts and feelings.We can easily find the author's reestablishment of the character from the comparison of Wu's'Journey to the West'with the book'On Tang sanzang's Pilgrimage for Buddhist scriptures',their characterization of the Monkey King.The motive of the novel,using the modern psychological analysis,is the instinct of life and the agitation of death of the author.And his individual psyche agreed with the society which he lived in.
