论当代战争小说冲突的构成及艺术处理

当代战争小说表现战争生活中人与人的冲突主要是民族大义、国家利益与个人利益之间的冲突。以民族大义和国家利益为重、个人利益为轻是其原则,个别作品虽有出入但从未丧失民族的底线,这是由民族观念所决定的。革命战争小说和南线战争小说处理革命、国家与个人三者利益时,虽也遵循上述普遍原则,但已开始思考其悲剧性内涵。这是战争小说表现这类冲突的新质,预示出战争小说的新趋向。在处理方式上,"联系比衬"与"人物聚焦"是20世纪80年代后战争小说处理战争环境下人与人冲突的两种主要方式。

Contemporary War Novels: the Construction of Conflicts and Artistic Treatment

The interpersonal conflicts revealed by contemporary war novels mainly involve the interest conflicts between the nation and the individual.The national interest above individual interest is the principle in the creating of the novel,with only one or two exceptions,but the bottom line of the nation determined by the spirit of the nation has never been lost.In artistic treatment,though revolutionary war novels and the southern war novels follow the general principle,they begin to take the tragic implication into consideration,which is a new nature to display those conflicts and indicates the new trend of the war novels,with"contact ratio lining"and"focus on people"as two major methods to deal with the interpersonal conflicts after the 1980s.
