《极花》的柔性批判与迷惘沉思

On Soft Criticism and Perplexed Pondering of Flower Worm

《极花》的现实型题材蕴含着深广的批判,但深沉的生命关怀,使故事中的批判性柔化。其思考触及的根本性问题仍是中国社会的现代化问题。作为一个动态的进程,现代化在诸多层面上是并不同步的,还伴随着人道主义的危机、传统文化和价值规范的当下命运问题,这些都是社会乱象和社会悲剧诞生的原因。贾平凹以巨大的同情和悲悯,思考这个大转型时代诸多的悲剧性状况,颇为迷惘与无奈。故此,《极花》只是一部重在社会问题呈现的小说。

The realistic theme of Flower Worm contains deep and broad criticism, But its deep life-caring makes the critical softening in the story. The fundamental question of its thinking is still the modernization of Chinese society. As a dynamic process, modernization is not synchronized in economic, political, cultural, human and other aspects, especially between cities and villages, this kind of insynchronization is more obvious. In addition, the question of modernization is accompanied by the problems of humanitarian crisis, traditional culture and the current fate of values, which are the reasons for the birth of social chaos and social tragedy. Jia Pingwa with great sympathy and compassion, thought about the tragic situation of the great transition era, but could not provide his own plan and form his own thinking, rather perplexed and helpless. Therefore, Flower Worm is a novel refocused on social problems.
