谢冰莹的思想转变与《女兵自传》的修改问题

The Ideological Evolution of Xie Bingying and the Revision of Girl Rebel:The Autobiography of Hsieh Bingying

谢冰莹的长篇自传体小说《女兵自传》在组稿和版本流变过程中,有多方面、不同程度的修改,其修改核心为“革命话语”。这缘自于作者所经历的被开除党籍事件、闽变风波、在日本入狱等带来的冲击与再赴战场的“新生”。经此,谢冰莹不愿再因与其它党派的瓜葛而受到攻讦,革命想象也发生了显著变化,修改中“革命”的着力点从阶级解放转向民族解放。全面抗战时期,对民族国家的再理解使谢冰莹将“小我”融入“大我”,完成了个人意义的政治认同和文化认同,并建构出一以贯之的民族主义立场。谢冰莹通过删改文本等方式对革命组织予以批判,但并没有抛弃社会革命想象,只是不再诉诸暴力革命,也不再将革命话语与革命组织捆绑在一起。与此同时,其革命激情的重心转向民族革命。这表明,此时谢冰莹的文学书写从“革命文学”走向民族性的浴血再生,其革命想象也在国家危难和民族存亡之际实现了更新与重塑。

Xie Bingying's autobiographical novel Girl Rebel:The Autobiography of Hsieh Bingying underwent multiple modifications during the drafting and versioning process,with the focus of the revisions centered on adjusting and deleting"revolutionary discourse".These changes were brought about by a series of events,including Xie Bingying's expulsion from the Party,the Fujian Incident,and imprisonment by the Japanese,which led her to distance herself from other political parties and focus on national liberation.As a result of significant changes in the author's revolutionary imagination,the focus of the revisions shifted from class liberation to national liberation.During the Comprehensive Anti Japanese War,Xie Bingying's renewed understanding of the nation-state allowed her to integrate her personal political and cultural identities into a consistent nationalist stance.Although Xie Bingying criticized revolutionary organizations through deletion and substitution of text,she did not abandon the social revolutionary imagination,but rather stopped advocating for violent revolution and stopped completely tying revolutionary discourse to revolutionary organizations.Instead,her revolutionary passion shifted to national revolution.This indicates that at this time,Xie Bingying's literary writing moved from"revolutionary literature"towards a nationalist perspective,and her revolutionary imagination was renewed and reshaped during the national crisis.
