道德理想主义的困境与小说的折断性叙述——评许春樵长篇小说《酒楼》

摘要

许春樵长篇小说《酒楼》的前半部延续了他惯常的道德理想主义叙述，将中心主人公塑造成为一个受难的道德楷模；但是，当他的叙述进入下半部，在情节历史的中段，则一反常态地腰斩了他过去所坚持的道德理想主义，让道德楷模的形象滑向了其反面。许春樵小说对于道德理想主义的折断性叙述，既昭示着作家创作的变化，也可能预示着当代中国知识分子对于现实的价值态度和叙述姿态的某种转变。%Despite his portrayal of the prime hero as a moral model in distress by continuing to apply his habitual narration of moral idealism in the first part of his novel The Resturant, Xu Chunzhao has abruptly departed from his persistent moral idealism and presented the image of moral model into an negative one in the second part of his narration--the middle part of the story in the novel. The broken narration of moral ide- alism in Xu Chunzhao＇ s novel has not only signified the changes in the creation of writers but also possibly foreboded some transformation of contemporary Chinese intellectuals in their value concept of, attitute to- wards and narrative pattern of reality.
