20世纪90年代以来乡土小说中“动物叙事”及其文化意味

“Animal Narrative” and Its Cultural Implications in the Local Novels Since the 1990s

在《生死疲劳》《怀念狼》《公猪案》《刺猬歌》等20世纪90年代以来的乡土小说中,奇崛鬼魅的动物叙事成为其叙事典型特征。这类作品借人兽关系融合或变异的文学演绎,试图破译历史迷局,勘探现实真相,再度阐释人性与兽性话题,直面国法与生存的颉颃,重建诗性正义。在对“野性”的呼唤中,作者既对乡土大地上“沉默的大多数”的生存本相和精神图谱进行了生动的艺术注解,也呈示出他们对农耕文明和工业文明之间复杂关系的深度思考。

Since the 1990s,writers have created unique animal narrative in local novels such as Life and Death Are Wearing Me out,Missing Wolfs,Boar Case,Hedgehog Songs.They try to decipher mystery of history,explore the truth of reality,explain the topic about human nature and animal nature,response the conflict between law and people’s existence,rebuild poetic justice according to the relationship of human and animals in these works.The writers have described the survival condition and spirit world of the silent majority to answer the call of the wild in the rural land.Besides,they express their reflections on agricultural civilization and industrial civilization.
