“底层文学”的自我更新与价值重构——以刘庆邦新作《黑白男女》为例

Self-renewal and Value Reconstruction of the “Bottom Literature” as Exemplified by Black Men and White Women

刘庆邦的新作《黑白男女》通过对从灾难之中的一时惨烈的描摹转向对灾难之后的永久撕裂的透视,实现了表现领域的扩大和批判力度的加重;对笔下人物的情感倾向由单纯的同情怜悯转向敬畏钦佩,不仅有效实现了人性深度的开掘,而且实现了对左翼文学传统的继承与扬弃;作家重新设置主体姿态,在新的维度上实现了割裂已久的精英意识与平民意识的有机整合,有效规避了上述问题,将"底层写作"推向新的发展阶段。

The resources of ideas,over-strong elite consciousness and the alienation from the real bottom of the society grow to become a bottleneck in the development of so-called'bottom literature'. Through the viewpoint shifting from a narration of the disaster to a subsequent examination,a new novel Black Men and White Women by Liu Qingbang broadens the expressive possibilities and aggravates the critical force. At the same time,a simple pity on the characters is displaced by respect and awe,which helps not only to explore the depth of human nature,but also to inherit the good tradition of the left-wing literature. Besides,such changes are,on a new dimension,bound to realize the integration of the elite consciousness with the civilian consciousness. Therefore,this new narrative attempt is significantly of literary value in the history of literature.
