摘要: | 本論文旨在探討李銳的小說作品,觀察李銳如何透過小說敘事,表現自身的生命經歷,揭示人類在生存困境下的真實狀態。本文將以李銳的創作背景、文學創作觀為基礎,闡述他如何將文化大革命時期的創痛記憶轉化為小說內容;瞭解他在「刻骨的寫出人類生存處境」的創作基點下,如何透過小說觀照人類苦難。本論文是以其小說中對文革、生存、性愛、死亡、歷史的書寫為探討焦點,並具體分析李銳小說文本中的敘述風格、情節結構、場景設定、語言形式、人物經營,以梳理其小說創作的藝術特質。 在大陸當代小說家中創作量不算豐富的李銳,屬於具有相當清醒的文學自覺以及自我追求的作家。出生於1950年的他,從不否認自己在青少年時期曾經有過的「紅衛兵」經驗,更將文革時期見證與遭遇的文革創痛視為自己「終身的追問」。因為小說中的重要場景設定在荒涼偏僻的呂梁山區,所以諸多論者以「鄉土文學」或「地域書寫」定調李銳的創作。然而筆者閱讀李銳小說的過程中,感受最深刻的卻是他對人類生存處境、人性的高度關懷以及對歷史、文革的深刻省思。跨越兩岸的歷史背景與文化、意識型態的差異,閱讀李銳小說作品時體驗到的沈重與蒼涼,成為筆者撰寫本論文的主要動機,參照其散文與評論作品後,感受到的更是李銳在冷酷的外表下,熾熱的文學熱情以及對人類生存處境的真切關懷。 This thesis intends to discuss the works of Li Rui, and through which, to observe how he expresses his own life experience and exposes the real condition of humans’ life. Based on Li Rui’s creation and his literary viewpoint, I will explicate how he transforms the traumatic memories of the Cultural Revolution into the content of fiction, and by doing so, how he takes cognizance of human distress. I will focus on the issue of the Cultural Revolution, living, sex, death, and history in his works and analyze the narrative style, structure, plot setting, language and characters to present the artistic elements in his works. As compared with other Chinese contemporary writers, Li Rui’s works are not ample. He is reckoned as an author who has clear literary consciousness and self-pursuit. Born in 1950, he has never denied that he has the experience of participating in the activities of “Red Guards.” However, he regards what he witnessed during the Cultural Revolution and the trauma of which he experienced as “the forever question in his lifetime.” Since many important locations in his fiction are situated in the bleak and distant Lu-liang Mountains, many critics pigeonhole Li Rui’s works in “Local Literature” or “Area Writing.” However, during the process of reading his works, what touches me most is his contemplation on humans’ living condition, history and the Cultural Revolution, as well as his great concern for humanity. Crossing over the difference in Taiwan and China in terms of historical background and cultural ideology, the heavy and desolate experience of reading Li Rui’s works becomes the cardinal motive for me to compose this thesis. After researching in his prose and his critical review, what I feel is his passion for literature and sincere concern for humans’ living condition under his callous camouflage. |
