人·虫·社会的悲哀——《变形记》和《促织》中“人变虫”的比较

Man·Insect·The Misery of the Society ——The comparison of "man becomes the insect" between "Legend of deformation" and "The Cricket

《变形记》和《促织》,两部作品中都蕴含着作者设计的怪诞而荒谬的故事情节———"人变虫"。卡夫卡和蒲松林,两个不同年代不同国度的伟大作家,在构思上竟会有如此相类似的契合点,作者在表现对社会和现实强烈的控诉之外,还揭示了一个普遍存在着的深刻的社会现实:人的异化。而同时,异化后的"人"与现实生活中的社会人之间的冷漠,值得人深思。

In 'Legend of deformation' and 'The Cricket', both authors told us an eerie and absurd story——'man becomes the insect'. Although Kafka and PU Song-ling, the two great authors, came from different countries and different ages, they show amazing correspondence in the plot. Two authors not only represented the complaints towards the society and the reality, also, they posted a ubiquitous but profound question: the dissimilation of the man beings. At the same time, the indifference that formed between the 'man' after dissimilation and the people in the real world deserves profound thinking.
