论鲁迅行文中的一处错误——从《鲁迅全集》两个注释的疏漏谈起

An Error by Lu Xun Based on Two Careless Annotations of The Complete Works of Lu Xun

《阿Q正传》在报刊上完成连载的次月,周作人便已写出评论文章。该文发表前鲁迅曾经亲自看过,并大体上予以认可。后来,鲁迅在一篇文章中还专门引述过周作人认为《阿Q正传》是"讽刺"和"冷嘲"的观点。问题在于,鲁迅在该文中明确指出此观点是在《阿Q正传》编入《呐喊》出版之后方才出现的,然而正式出版的时间是1923年8月,较之周作人发表论文的1922年3月已经相隔一年有余,藉此可以证明鲁迅在行文中出现了错误。

Zhou Zuoren wrote a critical essay as soon as The True Story ofAh Q was serialized in the newspaper. Lu Xun read the article before it was published. Later, Lu Xun mentioned that Zhou Zuoren thought of The True Story ofAh Q as a novel of ＂irony＂ and ＂fleer＂. But the question is the time inconsistency arising from the novel and the article respectively written by the Zhou Brothers. Lu Xun made it clear that his brother＇s viewpoint appeared after his novel was published, but in fact it had been published one year earlier. From this, we can conclude that there was a mistake in Lu xun＇s article.
