“中间人物”论的美学背景及其人物类型

On the Background of Aesthetics and the Types of Character for the Theory of"middle Character

196 0年代 ,“中间人物”论观点的提出 ,旨在希望创造一种更新颖的人物类型。在“英雄人物”为中心的革命文艺观念占主导地位的背景下 ,“中间人物”本有可能成为“英雄人物”的配角。然而 ,“中间人物”自身的矛盾个性和某些喜剧特征 ,使之被认为是一种消极力量。这便使“中间人物”对“英雄人物”构成了一定的美学“威胁”。因此 ,在当时 ,“中间人物”论被“颠覆”的命运也就不难理解了。

In the 1960s , the purpose of advocating 'middle character' is to create a new type of character for literature .In the background of 'hero character' as the main trend of revolutionary literature,'middle character' might have been the supporting role of 'hero character'. But the characteristic of contradiction and trait of comedy of 'middle character', is considered to be the negative power . So naturally'middle character' becomes the threatening power to 'hero character' in aesthetic area. And then it is clear that why 'middle character' could be overturned at that time.
