赵树理与现代人性问题

ZHAO Shu-li and Modern Human Nature

赵树理是解放区作家 ,但是他不是通常说的通俗作家 ,他的书也不是民间文学。他的作品中具备了五四精神 ,是五四精神结出的硕果。仅从最具五四时代特点的“现代人性改造问题”论题入手 ,分析了五四以来各时代问题小说各自不同的表现重点 ,认为赵树理也是致力于人性健全建设的 ,他表现的是农民的人性变化史 ;表现的是个性主义精神在农民实际生活中的重要意义。赵树理写农民意识觉醒比较着重于通过外因激起人物内心的变化 ,从而塑造一大批有血有肉的农村人物。

ZHAO Shu-li was a writer in liberated areas,but he was not a commonly-considered popolar writer,and his writings are not folk literature.Works written by him possess the May-4th spirit;they are the rich fruits borne by the May-4th Spirit.Based on 'the issue of reformation of modern human nature',which is most characteristic of May-4th quality,this paper,through analysing different representative focal points of the problem novels during different periods since May-4th movement,holds that ZHAO Shu-li also devoted himself to healthy construction of human nature.He represents in his books the history of changes of peasants' human nature and the importance of individualism in peasants' actual life.When ZHAO Shu-li writes the peasants' conscions awakening,he lays particular emphasis on the point that the external cause makes the characters change in their heart of hearts.In this way he creates a great number of rural characters true of life.This is ZHAO's originality.
