论《第七天》中的亡灵世界:“实际生活经验”的角度

Death as a Manifestation of“Real Life Experience”:On the World of the Dead in The Seventh Day

余华在小说《第七天》中建构了一个“亡灵世界”,以“亡灵”视角透视现实世界的荒诞离奇。从“实际生活经验”视角解读亡灵世界,发现《第七天》关注个体生存状态,通过叙述亡灵在死后七天时间寻找生存意义的过程,印证了死亡的“本己”和“在傍”,也表明此在生存体验须放在时间中考察,才能抵达真理,显露生命最真实的面相,这与海德格尔“实际生活经验”哲学观点相通。《第七天》中“向死而生”的死亡书写,可看作是海氏哲学视角下“实际生活经验”的一种显现,也是余华文学叙事上的一次转向。

Yu Hua constructs an“undead world”in the novel The Seventh Day to see the absurdity of the real world from the perspective of“the dead”.The world of the dead is interpreted from the perspective of“real life experience”and it turns out that The Seventh Day focuses on individual survival.By describing the process of the dead looking for the meaning of survival seven days after death,it confirms the“Eigentlichkeit”and“Dabei”of death.It also shows that the Dasein’s survival experience must be examined in time to reach the truth and reveal the truest aspect of life.This is consistent with Heidegger’s philosophical view of“Factic Life-experience”.The death writing of“Being towards death”in“The Seventh Day”can be seen as a manifestation of“real life experience”from the perspective of Heidegger’s philosophy,and it is also a turn in Yu Hua’s literary narrative.
