井上靖及其中国题材历史小说的创作特色

Inoue Yasushi and the Writing Features of His Historical Novels of Chinese Themes

井上靖作为一位著名的历史小说家,他的中国题材历史小说在创作方式上有其独特的形式。他的创作模式也曾遭到日本文学评论家的猛烈批评,为此他一直在找寻一种平衡,如历史小说叙事中纪传体和编年体、史实和虚构、中国题材和日本传统美之间的平衡。他的作品中及无不弥漫着一种诗意的抒情和淡淡的哀伤,人物身上无不体现着一种壮美、孤寂和命运的无常感。正是这种独特的创作方式和人物形象构建了他的历史小说的基调。

Inoue Yasushi is a famous historical novelist, whose historical novels of Chinese themes have their own form in the way of creation. His mode of creation has also been criticized by Japanese literary critics, for which he has been looking for a balance, such as the balance between biography and chronicle, the balance between historical facts and fictitious stories, and the balance between Chinese themes and traditional Japanese beauty. His works are filled with poetic lyrics and faint sadness, and the characters all embody a magnificent, lonely and uncertain destiny. It is this unique creation and character image that builds the tone of his historical novels.
