从“我”到“我们”——对“五四文学”转向“革命文学”的深度思考

From “I” to “We”: Profound Reflections upon the “May Fourth Literature” Turning to “Revolutionary Literature”

五四新文学以"个性解放"为口号,以"自我"与"自由"为目的,全面宣传其"西化"启蒙的价值理念,并形成了一种反传统的文化思潮。然而,启蒙却并没有使新青年获得"自我"与"自由",反倒是使他们遭遇了现实生存的巨大困境。因此,新文学作家的思想倾向性,便开始明显地发生了"左转"。因为他们已经清醒地意识到,由于"自我"绝不可能脱离社会而独立地存在;故叙事主人公由"我"变成了"我们",则是一种符合历史发展规律的必然选择。

Taking "individual emancipation"as its slogan and taking "ego"and "freedom"as its purpose,the "May Fourth Literature"propagandized its enlightened values of westernization and formed a cultural trend of thought against the traditional culture. However,the enlightenment did not make the new youth gain their ego and freedom. On the contrary,it made them encounter a huge dilemma of real existence. Therefore,the ideological tendency of new literature writers began to turn left obviously.Because they have been soberly aware that the "self " can never exist independently of society. The narrative protagonist,with this perspective,changed from "I"to "We",which is an inevitable choice in line with the law of historical development.
