暴力的深度与温度--余华小说的暴力叙事

摘要

20世纪80年代，先锋派作家开辟了一条别具特色的文学创作之路，代表人物余华在小说创作中通过独特的暴力叙事将现实生活中的暴力现象凸显，并对这种现实暴力进行多层次叙事表达。文章从约翰·加尔顿的三个暴力层次理论阐释余华小说暴力叙事的深度，从余华前后期作品暴力叙事的嬗变挖掘其暴力叙事的温度，从而揭示余华小说暴力叙事的本质与内核。%In the 1980s ,the avant‐garde w riters opened up a distinctive literary path .Yu Hua ,a representative w riter ,highlighted the violence in reality through the narration of violence in his fiction and described it at several levels .T he author of this paper interprets the depth of the nar‐ration of violence in Yu hua’s fictions with the help of John Galton’s theory of violence hierar‐chy ,and discusses the temperature of the violence narration in his fiction so as to reveal the es‐sence and core of violence narration in his literary works .
