论阿Q的辫子——文学经典解读之“互文印证”

On Ah Q's Braid: Intertextual Verification in the Interpretation of Literary Classics

在鲁迅著作中,辫子是一个常见的意象,从国人的辫子到阿Q的辫子,其内涵既有叠印,又有变异。阿Q"用竹筷盘上他的辫子"这一意象的细节特征,标示着阿Q对革命的投机,亦差点滑入"以人血染红顶子"之列,有人格分裂症状。想以杀戮抢掠为"革命"目的的阿Q,是游民之类的形象典型,鲁迅对其是持批判态度的。辫子意象的互文印证,能使我们更加贴近鲁迅创作《阿Q正传》的旨意。

Braid is a common image in Lu Xun’s works with an overlapping and changing connotation from Chinese common braid to Ah Q’s braid. The detailed description of Ah Q’s 'braids on a bamboo chopstick plate' shows Ah Q’s speculation in the revolution, which is almost classified into the list of 'red crowns with human blood'. Ah Q, who has personality splitting symptoms and wants to kill and plunder for the purpose of 'revolution', is a typical image of vagrants. Lu Xun has a critical attitude towards Ah Q. The intertextual confirmation of the braid image can help us get a clearer understanding of Lu Xun’s intention of his creating Ah Q.
