序《中国当代文学的人文精神》

Preface to HUMANITY IN CONTEMPORARY CHINESE LITERATURE

《中国当代文学的人文精神》把人文精神界定为“人类以自身为目的并在自己创造历史的活动中形成和发展起来的一种文化精神品格” ,其宗旨是促使人们对自我生存状态的自觉 ,追求寓含着正义和真理的人生价值。该书在对人文精神的生成基础、存在方式、心理过程作了认真研究和分析的基础上 ,又进一步地对其作了相当科学的价值、文化、心理和现实的定位 。

humanity, in the book HUMANITY IN CONTEMPORARY CHINESE LITERATURE, is defined as 'a cultural and ideological character formed and developed in the process of history making by mankind for man's own sake', its aim being promoting mankind's consciousness of self existence and pursuing a value of justice and truth. In the light of the study and analysis of humanity's formation basis, existence patterns, and psychological process, the book further offers a scientific definition of value, culture, psychology, and reality, as a fairly unique response to the various academic explanations of humanity.
