20世纪40年代国人游记中的新疆形象

Image of Xinjiang in Chinese Travel Writings in 1940s

20世纪40年代前期,在国民政府"开发西北"和"到西北去"的舆论造势和内地战乱灾荒引发的大规模人口流动的现实推动下,出现了一些或政府组织或民间自发的科学考察团和移民屯垦潮。20世纪40年代中后期,现实中的新疆问题积习至千头万绪,新疆游记中关于新疆的介绍主要呈现出两个面向:一是美化新疆自然风光和人文地理,以期稳定民心和宣传新疆,凝聚国土意识和国家立场;二是直面新疆混乱时局和诸多问题,努力破解"谜一样的新疆",以期引发国人的关注重视。无论怎样的书写,无疑都在进一步巩固国人对于新疆作为国家领土固有一部分的坚定信念。

In early time of 1940 s, under the background of public opinion tide of ＂going to and developing Northwest＂ proposed by the contemporary government and of massive population flow caused by wars and disasters in inland China, there appeared a rush of scientific investigation and immigration either organized by government or done voluntarily. In later time of 1940 s, actual problems in Xinjiang accumulated gradually, which influenced and lead travel writings in Xinjiang in two approaches： on one hand, some of them beautified scenic spots and cultural and geographical features in Xinjiang in order to stabilize people＇s mood, make propaganda for Xinjiang and reflect territory consciousness and national stand; on the other hand, some of them faced the disorderly issues and problems in Xinjiang directly, making great efforts to solve the ＂mysterious riddle of Xinjiang＂so as to arouse Chinese people＇s awareness and attention. No matter what kind of writing they are,undoubtedly they helped strength people＇s strong belief that Xinjiang is part of China.
