从《尘埃落定》的民族自省意识谈当代蒙古族小说

On Ethnic Self-examination in "Dusts Fallen Down" and Modern Mongolian Novels

《尘埃落定》由于深刻批判了民族传统的缺陷而具有自觉、理智的民族自省意识 ,当代蒙古族小说则缺乏这种意识和理性。在前 17年的蒙古族小说中 ,阶级取代了民族 ,人物性格只有阶级的差异性却没有民族的相同性 ,民族性只是作为价值判断出现在小说中。 1984年后的小说开始对民族文化性格中的弱点作出反省 ,虽然更多还是表现在事物表面 ,但民族的理性与反省力开始觉醒。

Dusts Fallen Down criticizes the weakness of national tradition and is full of rational self-examination, but other modern Mongolian novels lack such awareness and rationality. In the first seventeen years, 'class' replaced 'nationality'; the characters only showed their class differences rather than national identity, national instinct only appeared as value criterion in novels. However, the novels after 1984 began to examine weakness of national cultural features; though they are still superficial, national rationality and examination began to awaken.
