非雅非俗的新境界--鲁迅对文艺“雅-俗”观的打破与重塑

A Higher State of Literary Practices——Lu Xun's Break through and Reinvention of Thoughts on Highbrow and Lowbrow Literature

中国古代的正统文艺以"雅"为核心范畴,雅俗悬隔、雅优俗劣的传统文艺"雅-俗"观严格规约着中国古代的文艺实践。在贯穿中国文艺现代转型之始终的雅俗流变大潮中,鲁迅打破雅俗界隔的创作实践和重估雅俗价值的文艺讨论,促成了传统文艺"雅-俗"观的根本转型。他将"淆乱了雅俗之辨"的新木刻视为国民文艺、大众文艺的理想样式,表达了对新文艺开辟非雅非俗之"新境界"的祈望。

"Highbrow" is the core category of literature and art in ancient China. The practice of literature and art in ancient China was strictly regulated by the idea that "highbrow" is superior to "lowbrow". Lu Xun’s literary creation bridged the gap between highbrow and lowbrow literary works,and his thoughts on revaluation of "highbrow" and "lowbrow" in the modernization of Chinese literature and art promoted a radical transformation of the old idea. He regarded woodcut print as model artistic form for the masses,showing his expectations for modern Chinese literature and art of higher state.
