战争与20世纪外国文学——兼论茨威格小说对战争的描写

War and the 20th Century Foreign Literature

20世纪已经成为历史,当我们回眸20世纪外国文学时,必须正视“战争与20世纪外国文学”这个无法回避的话题。战争使人的处境变得越来越难以理喻,人们在精神上普遍感到迷惘、痛苦、悲观,人的心理变得更加复杂。20世纪西方社会的种种困惑人心的问题以完全不同于19世纪传统作家的方式进入了文学,茨威格像20世纪其他许多作家一样,在其作品中很少像传统文学那样直接再现战争场面,主要是表现战争对人心理的冲击和影响。

Although the 20th century has passed, when we talk about its foreign literature, we cannot avoid the topic of 'The war and literature in the 20th century' . The Second World War makes people's situation more difficult to understand. All people feel perplexed, distressed, and sad, and human mind becomes more complicated than before. The problems puzzling western people in the 20th century come into the literature by a way that is completely different from the 19th century's. Zweig, like many other authors in the 20th century, seldom directly reflects the world war as the traditional literature did, he concerns the influence and attack of the war to human mind in his woks.
