大江健三郎《空中的怪物Agui》中的“Agui”意象解析

An Analysis on the Image of “Agui” in Kenzaburo Oe's Aghwee the Sky Monster

作为日本战后文学的旗手,大江健三郎面临的时代课题是如何处理明治维新遗留下来的后遗症和战后日本的重建问题。他反对盲目追随西方的文明开化发展方式,提倡日本走符合本国社会文化发展需要的道路。为此,他主张首先要进行民众的启蒙,这与鲁迅的立人思想一致。大江健三郎在文学创作中的启蒙意识受到了鲁迅立人思想的影响,尝试对鲁迅文学中的阿Q意象进行变异处理,在《空中的怪物Agui》这部短篇小说中创造出了日本的"Agui"。本文拟通过文本分析的方法,对"Agui"这一意象进行重新解读,借以确认其内涵与实质。

Kenzaburo Oe is the flagman of Japanese postwar literature. The social issues needed to be solved by his generation are the sequelae of Japanese civilization since the Meiji Restoration and the reconstruction of Japan after the war. Kenzaburo Oe opposed to follow the western development mode blindly, and advocated that Japan should build the development mode of itself. In order to achieve the Japanese development mode, it needs to enlighten the people firstly, which is consistent with Lu Xun's thought of "Liren".The literature of Kenzaburo Oe was influenced by Lu Xun, and he changed the image of Ah Q in Lu Xun's works, creating the Agui of Japan in Aghwee the Sky Monster. This paper tries to reinterpret the image of "Agui" through the method of text analysis to confirm the connotation and essence of the thought of Kenzaburo Oe's literature.
