论阎真创作的存在主义之维

The dimension of existentialism in Yan Zhen's writings

阎真作品因反映知识分子的生存状况引起广泛关注,但少有人注意到其作品所蕴含的形而上的哲学思考。实际上,阎真创作与存在主义哲学有着千丝万缕的联系,主要体现为三个维度:一是对现代人生存困境的呈现;二是对"荒诞"的"孤独"存在的敞显;三是表达向死而在的存在之思。在对生活原生态刻写的基础上,作家对个体生存境遇的深描与对个体生存价值的追求,都彰显存在主义内涵,把其作品从人的生存推向人的存在。

By reflecting the general living status of intellectuals in China, Yan Zhen＇s works have attracted extensive attention. But, few have noticed the metaphysical philosophy inherent in them. In effect, there lie numerous affiliations between Yan Zhen＇s writings and existentialism, which can be ellaborated mainly in the following three dimensions： presenting modern people＇s hellish struggle for survival, revealing the absurdity of their lonely existence, and reflecting on the existential philosophy of Being-towards-death. Based on the description of people＇s original living situation, the novelist goes deeper to manifest the connotations of existentialism by sketching individuals＇ living circumstances and the pursuit for their life value, hence uplifting his works from survival to existence.
