论寻根文学主体的构成及特点

寻根文学作为一个文学流派,鲜有人对它的主体进行研究。它的主体包括作为寻根先导的少数老作家、寻根主体部分的知青作家和寻根独特部分的少数民族作家。由于寻根文学作者不同的独特感受和各自文化背景下不同的审美理想追求,使他们在主体的不同类别里又有区别。老作家的寻根主要与他们的生活经历和个人爱好有关,其寻根更多地带有不自觉的特点;而知青作家的寻根是出于身份认同的需要和为西方现代文化寻找一个合适的接受场,因此担当寻根文学主体重要角色的不是文化底蕴深厚的老作家,而是文化底子薄弱的知青作家。而少数民族作家的寻根既是对长期封闭心理的反拨,也是对民族文化沉落的焦灼,还不免带有跻入世界文学潮流的急切。

Composition and Characteristics of the Subject of Root-seeking Literature

As a literary school,the root-seeking literature seldom gets research on its subject,including a few veteran writers acting as root-seeker forerunners,some educated youth writers who are the main body of root-seekers and the writers of minority nationality who are the special part in this school.It distinguishes in the subject of the root-seeker writers in different classifications owing to the root-seekers writers＇ distinctive sensation and different appreciation of beauty and ideals.The veteran writers＇ style is closely related with their own interests and experiences which have more characteristic of unconscious feeling.But for the educated urban youth,their root-seeking comes from the identification requirements and seeks for the suitable acceptance sites for the western modern literature.We could find such a strange phenomenon： the relatively-weak educated urban youth writers act as the main body and play important roles in this root-seeking tide,comparatively not the experienced writers with deep culture knowledge.In addition,for the minority writers,their root-seeking is not only the modification to the long-term closing mind but also the concerns for the falling of the national culture and they are eager for the access to the world culture tide.
