论“豆棚”场景与“闲话”叙述——《豆棚闲话》解题

On “Beans Canopy”Scene and “Chitchat”Narrative——Interpretation of the Topic Meaning of Chitchat in Beans Canopy

作为书名的"豆棚"与"闲话"是窥探小说集"文心"的窗口。"豆棚"意象除表层意义上的搭构故事,还具有文学创作传统中的超越意味以及"自春及秋"的时令性和"结豆"的实用性,暗示着象征"十二个月"的"春秋"之"史"的意识及有益人生的创作理念。作为叙述方式的"闲话"的运用是"豆棚"意象之义的互补,艾衲把自己所编之"史"称为"闲话",这本身就带有一种自我调侃的自信,这一自信来自于"闲话"源于生活真实的自我验证。除此之外,"闲话"语境的建构一方面把十二则主题、类型混杂的故事糅合一体,另一方面也表达了艾衲小说创作时面对其叙述并非权威真实的顾虑而采取的自我正当化的书写策略。

As the title, ＂beans canopy＂ and ＂chitchat＂ is the window to spy into the ＂literary mind＂ of the stories. In addition to building the structure of the stories,＂ beans canopy＂ image has transcendent meaning in literary creation tradition, seasonal characteristic ＂from spring to autumn＂ and practicality of ＂gaining beans＂ ,which imply the creation ideas and the awareness of＂history＂of The Spring and Autum Annals symbolizing ＂twelve months＂. Using ＂chitchat＂ as narrative style is a complement to the image meaning of ＂beans canopy＂. Ai Na called the history compiled by himself as ＂chitchat＂ ,which suggests a kind of self-ridicule confidence. This confidence arises from self verification that the chitchat originates in true life. In addition, as for the construction of chitchat, on the one hand Ai Na blends the themes of twelve stories and different types of stories into one; on the other hand, they express the concern of Ai Na when he faces the fact his narrative is not authoritire and trust, he tends to take self-justification writing strategies.
