传奇叙事与形式的辩证法——欧阳黔森小说论

Legendary Narration and Dialectics of Form——On Ouyang Qiansen's Novels

传奇是中国小说的重要传统,从六朝志怪、唐人传奇到宋元话本、明清小说,传奇都是一种非常重要的叙事方法或文体形态。古往今来,传奇不仅是一种艺术形式,更是一种意识形态载体。欧阳黔森的小说创作充分表现了传奇的形式辩证法,在欧阳黔森小说中,无论是革命英雄传奇还是民间英雄传奇抑或是当代世俗传奇,传奇叙事不仅综合了武侠、冒险、志怪、鬼神、荒诞等艺术形式,而且综合了江湖侠义、英雄主义、理想主义、国家主义等意识形态内容。在这些意识形态追求中,国家意识无疑是欧阳黔森最为重要的创作追求。

Legend is not only an important tradition of Chinese novels, but also a very important narrative method or stylistic form of the tales of anomalies in Six Dynasties, the legend in Tang Dynasty, the text of stories in Song and Yuan Dynasties, and the novels in Ming and Qing Dynasties. From ancient time to present, legend is not only an art form, but also an ideological carrier. Ouyang Qiansen’s novel fully expresses the dialectics of form in the legend. In Ouyang Qiansen’s novel, whether it is revolutionary heroic legend or folk heroic legend or contemporary secular legend, the legendary narration not only integrates the artistic forms such as martial arts, adventure, fantasy, ghost, and absurdity, but also integrates the ideological forms such as chivalry, heroism, idealism and nationalism. Among these ideological pursuits, national consciousness is undoubtedly the most important pursuit in Ouyang Qiansen’s Novels.
