沈从文笔下的儿童形象

A Study on Children Images in Shen Congwen's Novels

综观对沈从文及其作品的研究,或是对于他的思想倾向研究和小说艺术研究,或是对于他笔下女性形象的分析,或是对于他都市题材小说中病态人性的研究等,却鲜有人提及他笔下的儿童形象。事实上,他的作品中不仅有生活在"希腊小庙"里的率性自然的小儿女,还有生活在苦难社会中的瘦弱卑微的苦孩子。他们与城市中的儿童共同构成沈从文笔下的儿童形象体系,反映了作者对中国现状的清晰认识和对中国未来的深深忧虑。

There are few studies on children images in Shen Congwen＇s novels compared with studies from other angles,such as his mindsets,the art of his novels,the female characters in his novels or the morbid personality.As a matter of fact,he not only writes about the spontaneous children living in the Greek temple,but the emaciated and humble children living in miseries as well.These children images reflect Shen Congwen＇s clear understanding of the situation of China and his worries about the future of China.
