《看虹录》:生命的另一种形式

See the Rainbow and Recording: Another Form of Life

沈从文的短篇小说《看虹录》是运用弗洛伊德心理分析方法进行心理小说创作实验的典范之作。在对小说的研究中 ,笔者发现 ,它叙述了一个弗洛伊德式的“白日梦” ,通过本我、自我、超我三个层次的“我”的心灵展示 ,肯定了超越于社会道德法则之上的生命的另一种形式———自然神性。 4 0年代初 ,在以抗战宣传为主要特征的时代文学氛围中 ,沈从文坚持现代主义探索 ,坚守艺术的独立价值 ,给后人留下了宝贵的艺术经验和精神启迪。

The short novel by Shen Cong-wen, See the rainbow and recording, is a typical psychological novel written by using Freud's psychological analytical method. During the study on this novel, we find it has narrated a 'daydream' like the type of Freud's, which, through the three levels of 'ed, ego and superego', depicted the inner soul and spirit, and then ascertained another form of life--the supernatural quality. In the early 1940s,Shen Cong-wen insisted on modernist approach to literary writing and the independent value of artistic works, which has left descendants valuable artistic experience and edification.
