历史叙事的新趋向——以《北上》《考工记》《黄冈秘卷》为例

New Trends of Historical Narration——Taking Northward Kao Gong Ji and Huang Gang Secret Roll as an Example

与以往小说相比,《北上》《考工记》和《黄冈秘卷》这三部作品在历史叙事上呈现出了新的特点。它们以具体的文献或器物作为文本的重要构成,建构了历史叙事的物的审美学。介入历史的角度,它们着重从日常生活入手,将民族史、家族史、地方史、个体生命史等纳入到统一体中探求历史与现实的逻辑融合,凸显历史叙事的民间与日常。不仅如此,独特的题材处理与艺术构思,使小说具有丰厚的意蕴。作家从文化层面写出了对中国故事和历史的深层理解与领悟,充分体现了创作上的文化自觉与深层次的美学追求。

Compared with the previous novels, the three works of Northward,Kao Gong Ji and Huang Gang Secret Roll show new features in historical narrative. They take the documents or objects as important composition of texts, and construct the aesthetics of things in historical narrative. From the perspective of history, they focus on daily life, including national history, family history, local history and individual life history into a unity to explore the logical integration of history and reality, and highlight the folk and daily life of historical narrative. Moreover, the unique theme and artistic conception make the novel have rich implication. Writers have written a deep understanding of Chinese story and history from the cultural level, fully reflecting the cultural consciousness and deep aesthetic pursuit.
