成仿吾文学转向的先兆:重读《深林的月夜》

The Harbinger of the Literary Turn of Cheng Fangwu: Re-reading TheMoon Night in the Deep Forest

《深林的月夜》是成仿吾创作序列中表现主义色彩最浓重的一篇。小说文辞优美,却情节怪诞,犹如一座叙事迷宫,隐藏着成仿吾对“五四运动”的反思和对文学与革命间关系的思考,反映出他文学转向的复杂历程。从艺术偏至向政治偏至的文学观念转型既是成仿吾在时代背景与个人际遇双重因素影响下的必然选择,也是怀揣报国理想的创造社同人的共同选择。

“Moon Night in the Deep Forest”is the most expressionist part of Cheng Fangwu’s novel creation sequence.The novel is beautifully written but grotesque,like a narrative labyrinth,hiding Cheng Fangwu’s reflections on the May Fourth Movement and the relationship between literature and revolution,reflecting the complex process of his literary turn.The transformation of literary concepts from artistic bias to political bias is not only an inevitable choice for Cheng Fangwu under the influence of the dual factors of the background of the times and personal circumstances,but also the common choice of the Society of Creation and people who cherish the ideal of serving the country.
