巴金与现代人学——《随想录》新论

Ba Jin and Modern Studies of Humans

巴金创作始终探索的是“怎样做人”的大问题,《随想录》更是以“人”为中心,既通过反思“文革”呼喊人的尊严与权利,又通过自审自剖宣示“独立思考”、“敢讲真话”对于避免“文革”重演、堂堂正正“做人”具有现实意义。继续“大反封建”、“为理想献身”,以及“艺术的最高境界是无技巧”等主张,都是巴金百年人生经验的科学总结,为丰富现代人学做出了重要贡献。

Abstract: Ba Jin's works always explore the significant issue about 'how to be human. ' In Random Thoughts, he goes further to set humanity as the centre of his book. With the reflection on the Cultural Revolution, he calls for human dignity and human rights, and by self--examination, he upholds that, 'thinking independently' and 'daring to speak out the truth' have realistic significance in avoiding another Cultural Revolution and maintaining integrity. His ideas of 'strongly opposing feudalism,' 'being ready to sacrifice one's life for the realization of one's ideal,' and 'the most artistic work being one without confinement, 'etc., are the scientific summary of his 100--year life experience, which makes great contribution to modern studies of humans.
