从“头”言说:重读鲁迅《狂人日记》

A Reinterpretation of Lu Xun’s A Madman’s Dairy

鲁迅的《狂人日记》发表以来,其评价经历了从"冷寂"期到"癌变"期的转变。如今,"冷寂"期往往被人忽视,《狂人日记》也就有被日渐"神话"的可能。因而,回到文本生产与文本内部之中重读《狂人日记》显得尤为必要。从"头"言说,意味着不仅立足于文本"小序"的思想文化内涵,也注重探究文本生成源头的经验转化技艺,更深入讨论文本呈现的"头"部形象特征以及"狂人""头"部的运转状态。由此尝试回到历史情境之中,揭示出《狂人日记》的文本意涵与鲁迅身体经验、时代社会问题之间的纽结关系,从而进一步认识与理解《狂人日记》的历史意义与现实价值。

Since its publication,Lu Xun’s A Madman’s Dairy has undergone a transition from a period of"neglect"to one of heated discussions in its evaluation.Nowadays,the period of"zeglect"is often overlooked,and A Madman’s Dairy is much likely to become increasingly mythical.Therefore,it is very necessary to reread A Madman’s Dairy in the context of its textual production and the text itself.An interpretation from the perspective of"the outset"means that it is not only based on the ideological and cultural connotation of the"short preface"of the text but also focused on a probe into the experience transformation skills of the source of text generation,and above all an in-depth discussion on the image traits of the"head"in the text as well as the operation state of the"madman"and the"head".Therefore,this paper attempts to return to the historical context and reveal the relationship between the textural meaning of A Madman’s Diary and Lu Xun’s physical experience and the social issues of that era so as to further acknowledge and understand the historical significance and practical value of A Madman’s Diary.
