时代脉搏的反映者——程造之现代长篇小说创作论

Reflecting the Pulse of the Times——On the Creation of Modern Novels by Cheng Zaozhi

程造之是中国现代文学史上的“失踪者”,长期被学界忽略。在20世纪30~40年代,他创作了长篇小说《地下》《沃野》《烽火天涯》,全景刻绘了波澜壮阔的抗战史画卷。程造之通过长篇小说,致力于对抗战时期的忠实记录,绘制乡土世界的历史变迁与复杂世相,致力于对国民性的批判。他网罗各阶层、各阶级的人物,塑造复杂生动的人物群像,呈现人物的挣扎与抗争,精准揭示时代的心灵密码与精神图谱。同时,他又以蕴藉的同情、深沉的哲思观照人物的悲剧命运,展现出对时代、人生、人性等问题的深入探索。

Cheng Zaozhi is“a missing”figure in the history of modern Chinese literature and has long been neglected by scholars.In the 1930s and 1940s,he wrote the novels“Underground”“Woye”and“Fire at the End of the World”.Cheng Zaozhi devoted himself to faithfully recording the era of resistance through the creation of these novels,depicting the historical changes and complex social conditions of the rural world,and criticizing national character.He collected characters from all walks of life and all classes,shaping a vivid and complex portrait of characters,exhibiting their struggles and resistance,and accurately revealing the spiritual codes and mental frameworks of the era.With empathetic sympathy and profound philosophical thinking,Cheng Zaozhi examines the tragic fate of the characters,exhibiting in-depth explorations of issues related to the era,life,and human nature.
