荒诞、荒唐与荒谬——我也要重估阿Q或曰我自己

Absurd, Ridiculous, and Preposterous ——I Too Would Like to Reevaluate A Q Or Myself

本文就骆冬青《重估阿Q》所提出的“阿Q精神”的价值重估命题 ,从三个层面阐述了这样一个观点 :阿Q精神具有最大的典型性和普适性 ,就人类存在的荒诞性来说 ,我们都是阿Q ;阿Q的个体精神活动 ,应该得到充分的尊重 ;任何改造阿Q精神的企图 ,都是荒唐的 ;任何将这种企图付诸实施的行为 ,都是荒谬的 ;如果以大规模的暴力手段 ,来强制实施对于另一个文化或人群的精神改造 ,那将是一场可怕的灾难 。

Starting from the topic of reevaluating the 'A Q Spirit' raised by Lu Dongqing in his Reevaluating A Q, this paper expounds the following the view from three lagers: The A Q Spirit is the most symbolic and universal, and as far as the absurdity of human existence is concerned, we are all A Qs. The individual spiritual activities of A Q should be respected; any attempt to remould the A Q Spirit, or any action to put such attempt into practice is ridiculous and preposterous. The spiritual remoulding imposed upon another culture or community through means of massive violence will be a horrifying disaster, and such a disaster has already taken place and is taking place still.
