从“非理性”戏剧叙事到民族新旧嬗变——《原野》的意义和裂隙

From Irrational Drama Narration to National Historical Evolution——The Historical Significance of Yuan Ye

《原野》是曹禺所有创作中非常特别的一部代表作,无论是在题材形式、公演历史还是当代改编上都显示出其丰富性,其历史意义值得再读。研究者常常忽视曹禺在"非理性"表达上的戏剧叙事策略,实际上,《原野》通过"非理性"叙事凸显出民族历史嬗变的必然和艰难。同时,这一主题意义重大,仍然造成《原野》在戏剧绝对形式上的裂隙,这一裂隙是《原野》第三幕成为上演难点的根本原因所在。

Yuan Ye is a special work of Cao Yu, with a controversial theme, a complicated performance history, and rarious adaptation,and is worth reading again. Few people pay attention to the irrational drama narration of Cao Yu. The theme of Fe is the necessity and difficulty of national historical evolution, which results in a fracture in the form of the play . That is why the third act of Fwan Ye is difficult to be performed on stage.
