人的文学:若子之死与文学之争——以1930年的周作人为中心

Changing Direction: Zhou Zuoren in 1930

周作人主张"生活"与"人情"的合理和健全,对非正常死亡的若子的纪念正是他为此所作的补偿,也是他内心平衡的结果。若子之死后的周作人继1921年大病之后再度集中购读和翻译佛经。无论是若子一周年忌辰的"诵经""放焰口",还是此后的购读佛经,都是他"仪式"的表达,而其"神话"则更多体现在他为此所写的一系列文章之中。"凡俗的人世"也是周作人一贯的思想坐标和审美境界,堪称他几乎所有"主张"的基础。"两明风波"中的周作人最值得注意的有两点:一是他对革命文学的态度;二是他对待论争的态度。周作人自称的"转向"毋宁说是确立从前的方向,而非别寻路向。

Zhou Zuoen emphasizes the important of life and feeling. Some of the rites in Ruozi＇s death can be regarded as a balance of inner heart. After Ruozi＇s death,Zhou Zuoren begins to research the Buddha Books.Zhou pursues his art in the earthly world. There is two points in Zhou＇s attitude. One is his ways toward revolutionary literature. The other is his fighting for different opponents. Zhou＇s changing directions is not choose the other way. He insists on is original road.
