贾平凹与新世纪文学的"底层"转向

在新世纪"底层文学"的思潮中,贾平凹是一个特殊的现象,在20世纪80年代成名的作家中,他是对底层文学感兴趣的极少作家之一,同时在"底层文学"中他也具有特殊性,与"底层文学"中大多的中短篇小说不同,他的《秦腔》、《高兴》都是长篇小说。在关注底层的同时,他也在"民族形式"上进行探索。这使他的创作呈现出了不同于别人、也不同于自己以前创作的面貌,贾平凹的创作,既建构了底层的主体性,也建构着中国和中国文学的主体性。

JIA Ping-wa and the Literary Turn to Grassroots in the Current Century

JIA Ping-wa is an exception in the trend of grassroots literature in the new century.Among the writers who gained their fame in 1980s,JIA is one of the few who takes an interest in grassroots literature.Another particularity of his grassroots writings is that both Shaanxi Opera and Gaoxing are novels whereas most of writings by other authors are novelettes or short stories.While keeping an eye on the grassroots,he also probes into the national form of expression which makes his works distinguished from works by other writers as well as his own earlier works.In his creation JIA constructs not only the subjectivity of grassroots but also the subjectivity of the Chinese people and Chinese literature.
