莫言小说的意象营构与中国新文学传统

Image Construction in Mo Yan's Novels and New Chinese Literary Tradition

莫言文学有着自觉的意象营构诉求。作家汲取古典、西方和新文学的多种资源,创造了属己的现代性意象系统。其首部长篇《红高粱家族》中诸种意象动静交错,并在文本中重复出现,在完成叙述与抒情的同时,以象征的方式包藏多重意蕴。莫言文学意象以写实性/象征性、叙事性/抒情性、历史感/生命感等多重因素的杂糅伴生,提供了一个新的文学创造的可能空间,承继并极大拓展了中国新文学传统。

Mo Yan＇s literature has a conscious demand for image construction. By drawing on the various resources of classical, western and new literature, the writer has created a modern image system of his own. The frst full-length novel, Red Sorghum Family, is composed of various images, either static or dynamic, which repeat themselves in the text. The narration and emotional expression embody multiple meanings in a symbolic way. Mo Yan＇s literary imagery mixed with realistic, symbolic, narrative and lyrical approaches and multiple factors such as sense of history and sense of life provides a new possible space of literary creation, thus inheriting and expanding the new Chinese literary tradition.
