论《阿部一族》中的殉死者

Warrior's Images for Kumamotohan' Hosokawa Tadatosi with Abe Ichizoke as an Example

日本乃木希典大将殉死后,森鸥外接连创作了《兴津弥左右卫门的遗书》《阿部一族》两部以殉死为题材的历史小说。与歌颂封建武士道精神的《兴津弥左右卫门的遗书》不同,《阿部一族》通过对武士们殉死原因的探寻,刻画了一群武士对于殉死矛盾而无奈的内心世界。读者从小说中可以深深地感受到作者对于殉死者的同情,以及作者对于封建武士精神的怀疑和批判。但《阿部一族》仍为读者们留下了许多关于武士殉死原因的疑问。从作者所不曾提及的真实历史出发,进一步探讨他们殉死根源所在,从而加深读者对于日本中世纪武士集团内部主从关系的理解。

Based on the deathof General Nogi maresuke, Mori Ougai, one of the masters of Javanese modern literature, wrote two historical novels Okitsu Mifive Uemon the Suicide Note and Abe Ichizoku with the theme of sac- rifice. Different from Okitsu Mifive Uemon the Suicide Note, Abe Ichizoku depicts the contradiction and helpless in- ner world of warriors through the samurai martyrdom of the reasons for sacrifice. From the novel we can feel the writer＇ s sympathy for them. The novel describes the writer＇ s doubt and criticism for warriors. But for reasons of sacrifice, there are many questions remained in Abe Iehizoku for readers. Starting from the actual history without being referred to by the writer, this paper attempts to discuss the basis of their sacrifice and to deepen the understanding of the relationship between the master and slave relations in Japan.
