20世纪90年代之后,社会转型的加速尤其是经济体制转轨给知识分子带来了普遍的精神动荡。田中禾20世纪90年代的小说创作表现着他的精神焦虑,而新世纪第一个十年长篇小说的创作空白与第二个十年的丰收(“故乡三部曲”),也是这种焦虑直接或间接的体现。对焦虑的抗拒与缓释,得益于他对“社会责任感”和“心灵自由”的关系的体认,这体认也帮助其实现了自我心灵的安妥。田中禾近三十年的心路历程,是社会转型与当代作家精神关联的一个典型案例,对今天仍处于社会转型焦虑中的中国当代知识分子心灵建构极富启示。

After the 1990s,the acceleration of social transition,especially the economic system transformation,brought about a general spiritual turmoil to the intellectuals.Tian Zhonghe's novels in the 1990s shows his anxiety during this period,and the blank of novel creation in the first decade of 2lst century and the harvest in the second decade("Hometown Trilogy")are direct or indirect reflections of the anxiety.His resistance and relief to anxiety benefit from his recognition of"social responsibility"and"spiritual freedom",which also helps him to realize the peace of soul.Tian Zhonghe's spiritual experience in the past 30 years is a typical case of the relationship between the social transition and the spirit of contemporary writers,which is highly enlightening to the spiritual construction of the intellectuals who are still in the anxiety of social transition today.
